I am taking a year off work and thinking of Costa Rica in January and maybe Nepal in the fall. I hope to come across as an easygoing happy person. I like to hike and trek to reach beautiful places and discovered the plant life and wildlife on the way (not to fulfill a bucket list, challenge myself or advertise my exploits on social media). I have the capacity to fully immerse myself in the present moment ( and as a result have lost countless jackets, hiking poles and binoculars). Non- violence to animals is one of my core values. Meeting travel buddies for parts of the Costa Rica trip would be awesome! I don’t really feel up to a hard core hiking trip but more like a bit of everything with walks and hikes but also good food, nice accommodations and beaches ( and if you can hike the beach all the better :-). I am not looking for a romantic relationship.
