Nosara, Samara and Santa Teresa, all located on the south western coastal region of Guanacaste Province of Costa Rica are the most expensive destinations in all of Costa Rica that I have found in the three years traveling to the region. As of recent, I will never visit those areas again, and even less, spend any money in those regions if I ever pass theough them. The region is inundated with unnecessary and astrologically high costs of living that only the top 1% of the global elite can afford. That would be the top 5% of the wealthies people who own 95% of international global markets and corporations. That would be the very same people who are enslaving the remainder of the rest of the population into dead end jobs with little or no rewards.
The local community does not benefit from the eccessively high costs because those corporations that have marginalized the market have also marginalized the inhabitants and forced them from their homes through price gouging/fixing. If you are merely a tourist that doesn’t give a shit about the local environment, you will not understand this and robably be oblivious to the adverse effects the uber wealthy have had on the indigenous people and the local culture. It is the exact same, identical process that those mega-corporations and uber wealthy impose on other marginalized cultures.
PLEASE, boycott that entire region and vote with your dollars. DO NOT give them ANY of your money EVER, at all, period.
Please, avoid that place and boycott every entity in that area in protest.
