It’s been a while since I last posted here! In the meantime, I married the love of my life, we finally got the keys to our newly built home after waiting 3.5 years, and we’re expecting our first baby this August 🩵🩷 Feeling incredibly grateful for all these beautiful new beginnings 🫶🏼

This photo was taken in Parque Miguel de Cervantes in David during our 2024 trip to Panama — a place that now holds even more special memories for me 🥰

Manuel Antonio National Park: A Must-Visit! 🌿✨

Manuel Antonio National Park is pure magic! It was the first park I visited in Costa Rica, and WOW—it did not disappoint. We saw playful monkeys, sloths lounging in the trees and so many other animals 🦜🦥🐍🦋🦎

And the beaches? Absolutely unreal! Picture turquoise waters, white sand and a hundred palm trees 🌴🌊💚

Some tips:
⌚️ Arrive early (opens at 7 AM) to beat the crowds and spot more wildlife
🦥 Book a guide (they’ll help you spot animals you’d never spot on your own) OR keep an eye out for where big groups are gathered (you’ll know why 😉)
🧴 Pack sunscreen, water and your swimsuit
🎟️ Reserve tickets online in advance!

Who’s adding Manuel Antonio to their bucket list? Let me know in the comments! 🏝️✨

My first wow moment in Costa Rica! ✨

I had the pleasure of traveling around Costa Rica and Panama with my family for a month earlier this year 🇨🇷🇵🇦 And oh, I had so many wow moments during my trip! Seeing the Nauyaca Waterfalls was my first wow moment of my trip. What a magical waterfall! On this reel, you see the lower falls 🫶🏼

There are two parks to visit this amazing waterfall. We visited the @nauyaca_waterfall_nature_park! This park is not crowded at all, which is a real advantage compared to the other park! 🙌🏼

📍Nauyaca Waterfalls, Uvita, Costa Rica
