Had to settle for a swim today, as there was no surf at all .. flat like a pancake .. didn´t mind too much though.
Settling in to the hostel now .. quite enjoy staying here (Osa Maraposa), in my wooden shack .. well I think it is best described as a very fancy wooden tent. The owner is an american guy from Colorado .. covered in tattoos he left the US about 7 years ago on a bit of a walkabout "with a broken heart", and somehow he has ended up here. Think he might be a buddhist .. he had a small book he wrote at the hostel about his first steps south of America. Anyway the food was vegetarian but strangely delicious.
So far the people seem very fair .. they don´t rip you off at all .. not like my experiences in places like Morocco where they are out to fleece you for every buck you have. There also doesn´t appear to be a haggling culture .. there is a bit of movement when it comes to accommodation but for the most part the price is the price (which is kinda refreshing)
