It’s cold. It’s grey. And most of Europe is in lockdown with not much to do. And we’ve all been cautious, we’ve all been couch potatoes for most of 2020.
We’re scrolling through an endless sea of negative anxiety-inducing news without any glimpses of a brighter future ahead.
But when we’re tapping through Instagram stories, looks like there’s a parallel Universe with some life out there, and it’s happening under palm trees, with many degrees and lots of sunshine.
These maps don’t look like they could get us up from our couches, right?
But there’s COSTA RICA and Mexico.
Ans although Costa Rica is on the partially Restrictive list it still means NO PCR test!
If you already did one, you know that it is not only an extra cost but also painful and annoying to organize.
When it comes to Covid-19 — tests, quarantine etc
All you need to enter Costa Rica is a QR code on your phone which you present while staying in line with your passport to get the stamp.
You get the QR code automatically after you fill out online on salud.go.cr a super simple form — shouldn’t take more than 3 minutes.
You need a travel insurance that covers — medical expenses in cases of pandemic disease COVID 19 in Costa Rica, for at least USD $50,000 (fifty thousand dollars of the United States of America).
Sounds scary? It shouldn’t be and don’t go to Google yet. I have the answers to this, and flights and all other restrictions in Costa Rica here.
This awaits you.
