Costa Rica is a quite touristy country and as such it is reasonably easy to find casual work in the tourism industry if you turn up in the country and ask around. Many tour operators are run by foreigners, and many foreigners visit Costa Rica so these operators are always looking out for people to help out their operations. It helps a lot if you are bi-lingual ie. speak Spanish as well as your native tongue! I found work in Quepos for 3 months - the pay was average, but the experience of living and working in Costa Rica was amazing! Great beaches all along the pacific coast! I'd love to return soon to Costa Rica - next time I'll get a proper visa that allows me to stay longer! To wet your appetite to visit and work in the country, here's a great pic of a famous beach on the pacific coast of Costa Rica:



Costa Rica - "Pura Vida" as they say locally!

Great pic maybe... but is it really for the famous beach?
