Hello everyone,
Episode 12 is about a week overdue, I’m sorry for the delay but things got hectic around here and I’ve been preparing for my trip back home to Costa Rica thus the delay in getting the latest podcast done.
During the My Costa Rica Trip 101 segment I discuss my reading materials and what I’m loading on to my iPod for my flight down so I thought I would list that in this post.
During the podcast I mentioned the Alamo coupon code online. . I’ll let you know if it worked in Costa Rica. I’ll let you know how the flight goes using .
The book I bought for my trip:
By Timothy Ferriss
I’m also taking a few magazines I enjoy like and .
I’m also loading up my iPod with some great podcasts. My iPod is already full of music from Costa Rican Salsa to Heavy Metal, I have an ecclectic music taste.
Here are some of the podcasts that I’m taking with me to Costa Rica. If you enjoy podcasts check these out these podcast shows they are all ¡pura vida!
features cover songs, it’s interesting to hear a different artist covering a song and it’s gets pretty wild like a bluegrass artist covering AC/DC. This was one of the first podcast shows I started listening too.
- cool podcast about beisbol check episode , that’s me taking you on a tour of Hiram Bithorn Stadium in Puerto Rico!
(This Week In Tech) – cool podcast about tech stuff.
I listen to couple podcasts about podcasting so if you’re interested to learn more about podcasting from the tech side…
- cool podcast features interviews with popular podcasters. I’ve found about some great podcasts listening to this podcast.
- this one covers the latest gear and gadgets for podcasters.
Here are some other location oriented podcasts like Costa Rica Talk Radio that I listen to and enjoy:
- all about Alaska, Scott Slone does a great job. As I get more experienced I hope to produce quality podcasts (audio and video) like Scott does!
- awesome podcast about Hawaii. Costa Rica is compared a lot to Hawaii for it’s natural settings, volcano’s, and beautiful beaches. I’ve never been there but it’s on my list of places to visit.
– great podcast about South Africa. I never thought I would be interested in visiting but after listening to these podcasts I want to go to South Africa!
- Vegas baby! Tim Dressen and his wife, Michele have a great podcast about Las Vegas. Plus they’re Minnesotans so we have that connection.
– one of the early podcasts I started to listen and gave me the idea to do a Costa Rica podcast.
- I enjoy running and this podcast is fun. Steve Runner does his podcasts while running! Steve has inspired me to do a running in Costa Rica podcast. I’ll be recording that when I’m there next week so you can expect to hear me panting and running through Costa Rica (dodging cars and buses) sometime in late June or July.
There are others for sure but these are just a few that I enjoy. That’s the nice thing about a plane ride, I get to catch up on my reading and podcasts!
In the Costa Rica news roundup I talk about the record high prices for fuel in Costa Rica by . Just like in the states the price of gas has gone way up and it’s a lot higher than in the U.S. I also talk about the CAFTA referendum and whales (not the in the news the last couple weeks).
I wrap up episode 12 with the 11th Costa Rican Spanish lesson.
I’m off to Costa Rica on the 3rd of June so my next posting will be from home sweet home in Escazu, Costa Rica.
