Costa Rica - Pura Vida

I have received my first postcard from Costa Rica, and it's beautiful!

Costa Rica (literally meaning, "Rich Coast") is a country in Central America, bordered by Nicaragua to the north, Panama to the southeast, the Pacific Ocean to the west, the Caribbean Sea to the east, and Ecuador to the south of Cocos Island. It has a population of around 4.5 million, of whom nearly a quarter live in the metropolitan area of the capital and largest city, San José.

Stamps are also nice:
Pre-Columbian Art (from set of five), issued on 04.05.2007.
The 50th Anniversary of the Coope Ande, issued on 04.11.2015.


Thank you very much Randall!
