Descripción
Hola from Costa Rica! 👋🙂🌴 My name is Nick, I'm a naturalist and a marine biologist by training. I try to maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle, I have experience in all types of martial arts and sports in general, I'm a good cook and am very interested in cooking and preparing food in different cultures, I read a little and play chess. I'm interested in construction and carpentry, metalworking, how mechanical systems work, gardening and permaculture, some types of creativity and design, aquarium keeping, psychology, and I think much more :) My family values are traditional. And if you have similar interests, then we’ll have something to talk about.
The place I am inviting you to is perfect for for nature and animal lovers, who appreciate the simple things.
This place is located in Quepos, in the Manuel Antonio district, next to the "La Plaza Deportes Manuel Antonio" bus stop. The small property includes a house for tourists and travelers, and another smaller house for the manager and volunteers.
The property includes large trees, a small banana plantation, bamboo thickets and many other tropical plants. A soccer field with free access is located right next to the house.
There's also a cool wooden house nearby.
These are typical local houses in a typical Costa Rican neighborhood. It feels more like a village than a city, but there are large houses around.
The bus stop, cafes, supermarkets and restaurants are all within walking distance.
The houses are located on the edge of tropical vegetation, near a national park, and are literally surrounded by native flora and fauna. A variety of native animals, birds, and insects can be seen around the house. Sometimes, some of them can even be seen inside the house 🙈 Welcome to the jungle!
‼️ You shouldn't come if:
- if you lack skills and experience in anything and are just exploring this world in search of yourself.
- if you are highly sensitive and an encounter, for example, with a cockroach, a minimalist lifestyle, cleaning the house, or taking out the trash might shock you.
- if you smoke or use drugs. -

Alojamiento
A simple room with a bunk bed in a small two-room house. The living room, kitchen, toilet, and shower are shared. Wi-Fi and a washing machine are available.
Be prepared for minimalist living conditions and a lack of urban amenities, as this is country living with simple amenities and an emphasis on connecting with nature. However, essential amenities are certainly available.
❗ Basic food items (rice, beans, onions, cucumbers, potatoes, bananas, flour, salt, sunflower oil) may be provided. -
Algo más...
The ocean is nearby, within walking distance or 5-10 minutes by local bus. The bus stop is 250 meters from the house.

It is basically located between Quepos and Manuel Antonio. The house is big and spatious, our bedroom was a bit small but Nick is very much aware of it and could do some changes in the future. The best part is the fact that the house is kind of in the jungle and … read more
