Acerca de

Marisol has lived in San José since 2016 and spent the years before that island-hopping the Caribbean on ferry schedules that rarely matched the website. She covers Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala, Belize and the islands: hurricane season, park entry systems, departure taxes hidden in ticket prices and which crossings need cash.
