So I was talking today on Facebook to someone from my program who went to San Jose early to volunteer before classes start. He was kind enough to share some advice on packing and host families but he also let me know that shipping anything to Costa Rica is a total pain in the butt! A guy down there with him thought it would be a good idea to ship some of his stuff instead of bringing it on the plane. Terrible Idea! Expensive Idea! He had a cd case with over a hundred dvd's in it and they levied a dollar per movie import tax on him. YIKES!!!
Yup, no care packages for me!
