It is a small country with an immense richness of biological diversity. It is the place of Pura Vida, where vice-versa in peace, without armed forces since 1949, where primary education is free and compulsory, and where each national or foreign person has the right to receive primary health services from the State. It is a country where the water we consume is 99% pure, and the energy that we consume comes from clean sources. It is a place where respect for the environment and traditions are part of the idiosyncrasy of the “Ticos”.
