Costa Rica is home to many expats who are attracted to a slower, more relaxed lifestyle in a warmer climate and with a lower cost of living. There is more sunshine than either Hawaii or Florida and Guanacaste is the driest part of the country with less humidity.
The rainy season provides some relief from the heat and makes everything green again; it usually rains from May through November. Even during the raining season, there is still plenty of sunshine to enjoy your favorite outdoor activities.
