Have You Ever Been To A True Paradise and Wanted To Stay Forever?

Jaco, Costa Rica, on the Pacific Coast, is a true paradise. It is no wonder they call it a surfer's mecca. The waves on some days were two stories tall, forming perfect tubes. On other days even a beginner had a chance. You can be served drinks, sunbathing on the beach in a National Park, being constantly enertained by the incredible surfers. The locals, called Tico's are HOT!!!, beautiful to look at, deeply tanned and friendly. The food is fresh, fish caught that day, eggs just hatched that morning, fruit allowed to ripen on the vine, great spices and it all comes from the local small farms. Even the fast food restaurants taste better, they get their food from the same places. The trip up the coast to Manuel Antonio is picturesque as you go up high over the beach, wonderful for pictures. There is a restaurant there that is made out of an airplane relic from the Iran-Contra Affair, called El Avion, the food is fabulous, and the view to the sea, makes a great place to hang out. There is a market there, where they hang thousands of sarongs, flowing in the breeze, it is colorful and very inexpensive. The main thing that I fell in love with, is how they live in the moment, laid back, real values with simple every day life being important. It is an enchanting, charming, spiritual feeling place, that I really miss, want to go back to often and wish I could live there. It is not very expensive to fly to or stay for awhile. So, have you had an experience like this and felt like you were in paradise and tell me why you felt like that.
