@LunaCyclesLLC⁩ Thanks for letting me import the MX5 to Costa Rica!
Full length video link in my bio.
So here’s the deal—I’m 61, mostly a street rider, and I just started hitting the dirt on my Talaria MX5 here in Costa Rica… and wow, I’m hooked! This thing climbs like a beast, even on crazy steep hills, and the suspension is buttery smooth. I get about 30 miles of adventure with juice to spare, which is perfect for exploring the mountains. Still getting used to the regen brakes, but the ride feels super solid. Honestly, this bike is just fun. If you’re thinking about getting one, DO IT! The Talaria MX5 is a total game-changer!

The Great Green Macaw and Scarlet Macaw are stunning creatures. The colors of their plumage is so eye catching! Which bird is your favorite?

#keelbilledtoucan I enjoy the look of these creatures. They remind me of the breakfast cereal Fruit Loops Toucan. I remember as a kid eating Fruit Loops and staring at the Toucan on the box. #wildlifephotos #natgeoyourshot #ilovenature #ecotour #costaricabirds taken in Monteverde, Costa Rica by @devencreative

We checked in to try the king crab at Restaurante El Galeón. The first photo is an over exaggeration of what we ordered. But the following photos are the real deal. Overall it was a nice experience with people playing music singing Bésame Mucho while we were enjoying lunch. taken in Mercado Central de Santiago by @devencreative

Lydia Deven and I went for a kayak tour on the Rio Aconcagua estuary. It was fun and reminded me a lot of Elkhorn Slough in Monterey. Our guide Emilio @pinopewen was excellent! taken in Río Aconcagua by @devencreative

Plenty of fresh water, a beautiful place to swim, and time to enjoy it. So much to be grateful for. 💧🌿

Tres Piedras is one of my favorite swimming spots—a place to slow down, cool off, and appreciate what surrounds me. Having places like this in my life is something I never want to take for granted.

We got a break from the rain. So nice to see some beautiful blue skies. The rains will come back soon. When September ends we’re off to Chile! taken in Las Rocas De Amancio by @devencreative

At Rocas de Amancio, the Pacific doesn’t simply crash against the coast—it explodes across ancient volcanic rock and transforms into dozens of cascading waterfalls.

Just outside Dominicalito, Costa Rica, powerful ocean swells surge into the rugged formations, sending water high into the air before it pours back through countless channels, crevices, and ledges. With every new wave, the landscape changes.

It’s a mesmerizing collision of ocean power and volcanic geology—raw, unpredictable, and impossible to look away from.

Most buyers in Costa Rica see the finished property, not the work it took to make the land truly usable.
This short shows part of that process — clearing, terracing, irrigation, and establishing productive outdoor space.
At Casa Árbol de Vida, that phase has already been completed.
Located in Platanillo de Barú above Dominical, this 4-bedroom property combines completed home, usable land, and real infrastructure designed for full-time living. by @devencreative
