Varun, Tim and Jack are incommunicado on a flight to Costa Rica.  When they land in San Jose they will be whisked off to El Silencio Lodge and Spa, a retreat for the body and spirit - well detached from the INTERNET.............

National Flag of Costa Rica

When I hear the name Costa Rica, I immediately think of coffee.  Coffee was first planted in Costa Rica in the early 19th century, and was first shipped to Europe in 1843, soon becoming Costa Rica's first major export. Coffee production would remain Costa Rica's principal source of wealth well into the 20th century.



Inside Luxury Travel has not yet visited Central America so this is a real 1st for us! Step aside fine champagne, step aside single malt whisky ... I wonder if Varun will break his caffeine fast for a taste of the truly authentic local brew - a cup of Coffee!


Back tomorrow!
