It’s always a pleasure when we see the good word about Costa Rica traveling the world, especially when they feature our beautiful hometown in the mountains. And The UK’s Sunday Times went into depth into both this week, thanks to a wonderfully-done travel guide by destination expert Lucy Perrin. 

Monteverde is a fantastic region, sheltering one of Costa Rica's cloud forests, and there is a bit for everyone to experience all year round. It is also one of the few regions in Costa Rica where there are three climatic periods, not only two.
