Vacation In Costa Rica or Italy?

By Paula Storm


Vacations, or holidays as they so often call them in Europe, are a very important subject, particularly since most people get only a couple of weeks per year that they can essentially use to escape the facts of everyday life and work. I am speaking as an expat here, but have you ever noticed the vacation opportunities that European employees enjoy far exceed the typical American holiday? Without going into detail, I am able to just tell you that Europeans definitely have the right idea "more frequent and longer holidays!

Certainly there have been stories of Italy vacations that were less than impressive and tons of disastrous ones in Costa Rica. Therefore you can see, if these are your 2 front runner choices, you had better study scrupulously. You would not wish to be chased down some poverty ridden back street stuffed with ruffians fixed on stealing your camera, portable computer, and back pack. Would you?

On the same rule you wouldn't need to stay at some attractive lush tropical sea side heaven where you find out later that you went swimming each day where the beach and the water were sullied with big amounts of raw sewage dumped fresh from the hotel where you were staying.

The fact is, no country including the United States is fully resistant to these sorts of worries. All of which means, research prior to making your decision and spend your money you need to do your research carefully. But hey, let's admit it! You sure don't want to make a bad call relating to those 2 sacred weeks, if that is all that you receive, because it's going to be another year before you will have another shot at making the call.

If your holiday time's at a premium, and let's admit it, Western european or American, it is always too short! Rent a car Italyshould be considered as an necessary part of your plan, if your destination is Italy due to the unmatched sight seeing opportunities. On the other hand, if you imagine yourself using most of your stay to luxuriate in a luxury ocean side resort, then Costa Rica is probably going to be your only option "remember though, there are only approximately beaches where the sea next to resort tests clean!
