Breakfast arrived. It's pretty big. - Be very careful if you are going to be in the capital, - not to go out too late at night. Why do they say "los ticos", right? - There you put all your things in my backpack. Those are the fights we have. - For me, Costa Rica is no stress. - This is split in half and eaten from there. - No... Good morning! - Good morning, people, how are the pura vida doing? We are in Costa Rica. A new country for the two of us. That we never came - We are in San José, the capital. - We've just arrived. - And what better way to start the video by going to eat a typical dish from here. Yes. - So we're coming straight here. - To the center. - Where are all the Ticos, where do they come here to shop, to walk? - Here, downtown, to do your things. - And here we have the central market in front of us. - Which is like the most typical market in San José. - Which is the capital. And from the year 1880. - And all our Costa Rican friends told us - "pura vida, go there to eat a pinto". - A pinto saucer. - So let's go in and see what that is. - Know a little more about this country. Oh, wow... - Uh... - Looks like a different market, look. "Married". That was lunch, right? Let's go find breakfast. - 3900 CRC cost. Because it's almost 12, look, and we're having breakfast... - Will there still be breakfast here? There's food there, I think. - Yeah? - Let's see. Look, is it a dress from Costa Rica? - Yes it is. Frozen. - This is an ice cream parlor. Look how cute. - Precious. - With the colors of the flag. "Pupusa". What is "pupusa"? "Breakfasts", "gallo pinto". - There's the rooster. - Will it be that position? Yes. - Let's see. - 1050 CRC is 2 USD I think. Less. - Hello. - Hi, how are you? - Well and you? - All good thanks. - Excellent. - Do you have a gallo pinto? - Yes Yes? - It can be with egg, with meat, with sausage. - Mine, with sausage. - Sausage. - Sausage? - Sausage. - Sausage, that. - What else did he have? - Egg, sausage, cheese... - Cheese. - Or meat. - Or meat. Egg. - Egg. Yes. - Whole or chopped? Chopped. - Chopped. Thank you! - Thank you! - Pura vida must be said, my love. - Pure Life. - Pure Life. Oh, and before... - There's the lady, she wants to say hello, look, my love. Hello! - Hello! - How are you? - Good! - All good? - I am from San Miguel de Sarapiquí. - Where is? - Oh, next door. - But is it here in Costa Rica? - Yes, in Costa Rica. - Oh. - Yes. - To the north or to the south? - To the north. - My name is Heidi. - As? - Heidi. - Heidi is her name? - A pleasure, Heidi! - Pure Life! - Nice to have met you! - Thank you. We came here to see Costa Rica for the first time. - Oh really? - Yes. - Do you like it? - We are surprised by the kindness of the people. - Yes. - Everywhere... - But be very careful. - As? - Take care of yourself. - You must take care? - Well. - Because the pura vida. - Because all people are not the same. - Sure, like everywhere. - Aha, yes, like everywhere. - But, so far... - In general... - Aha. - 10 points, too positive. - A pleasure. - A pleasure! - Pure Life! - Pure Life! - Pure Life! - Are you going to have a drink? Is there something typical? - What is the most typical thing you eat with gallo pinto? - Oh, well, coffee. - Black coffee, coffee with milk. - Sweet water. - Fresh water, what is it? - That's from cane, it's made in milk or water, it's very tasty. - It's a hot drink. - Fresh water in water I'm going to try. Well. What would be horchata? - Horchata? - Yes. - It would be this drink, they make it based on rice, peanuts, it comes mixed. - It is made in milk. Ah... - Can you do it in the water? - Because we can't drink milk. - Okay. - In water I offer this. - This is Salvadoran. - But it's from the nose, it's done in water. - Comes peanuts, sesame seeds, gourd seeds. Well. - Well. I am going to try. - Go ahead. Breakfast arrived. It's pretty big. - Here the Ticos start the morning already strong huh... Yes. - To have energy huh. You asked with chorizo and I asked with egg. - With egg. - And this is my sweet water. Oh ok. - It is as if it were a tea but it is not a tea. - It's sweet water. Let's see how about... - Uh, I loved it. - It looks like... - It tastes like honey. - Yeah? - Yes. - It tastes like pollen. - Yes Yes Yes. - It isn't true? - Yes. - Similar. - It seems that pollen was thrown into it with hot water. It's true, it looks like honey water. Like a honey tea. Very rich. It has rice, beans, fried plantain, bread, egg or chorizo, right? - No, laugh well. - Complete. And to spice it up, I see that there's something like coriander, I think. - Ah... Pepper, let's see. Wow. It is very well seasoned. - Oh... - How well seasoned. - They put everything inside. Yes. - Yummy. It's very rich. "Very rich", as they say here. - Very rich. My drink arrived too. Uh... Look what this is. Like it was a peanut drink. - Yes. So, nuts. - Very good. - You want to try? - Let's see... - I liked it. Very good. - Spectacular. We are very full. We couldn't finish it because it was a lot of food. We eat a little at breakfast. Cost 5 EUR each. In dollars it would be more or less the same. - The same. - The dollar and the euro is almost even. So. - Yes. - Hello, good afternoon, good day. Hello. - Hi, how are you? - Very well, to serve you, a pleasure. - Thank you, very kind. - Thank you. - We are seeing. - With pleasure, see. - Here I have more things. - Here I have little things if you are interested too. - Thank you so much. - Thank you so much. - Are they coming? - Yes. - We just got here. - Excuse me. - Be very careful if you are going to be in the capital, - not to go out too late at night. - Yes. From 6 to 6. - No no no, after eight. - Ah, after 8, ok. - And there you can eat pizza, somewhere to eat. - But don't stray too far from the hotels. - Well. - Well. - I advise you not to go with a lot of cash either. - Oh. - Because there are good people here but... - But there is also everything. - Thank you, very kind, sir. - Thank you. We take that animal. - In Portuguese they call it bug preguiça. A sloth isn't he? - A sloth, that. Correct. - Here we are in the pedestrian street, people. - From San jose. - Where is all the market. And we go straight to an old theater. - Municipal theater. - And something that is calling my attention is, - for example, yesterday we got on the bus and it was full of people. - But there was a silence, a tranquility... - That I say "fua, am I in Estonia or am I in Costa Rica?" In the market too, even if there are people, it's pretty quiet. - So, that led me to think that the people here are quite calm. Yes. - Quite like that, calm down. They also said that in San José there is a lot of wind, and it shows... - And we had a lot of warm clothes. - Jacket, diver, everything, and we leave it to my sister. - Because we said "we're going to Central America, we won't need to wrap up so much"- - It turns out that it's not that hot here. - The climate is temperate. - We thought that Costa Rica was really hot, like Rio de Janeiro. - An ethic. We think about why they say "los ticos", right? And a follower of the channel explained how they call everything "little". Or "little friend." "Chick". I mean, they put the -ito, right? - "A bit". - "A while". - They made everything diminutive. - Clear. And for that reason, "the Ticos". There are also quite a few police officers guarding here. And what we saw when we went out today was two policemen who stopped with the motorcycle to help a pigeon that had a grila. - Let him cross the street. I mean, that surprised me a lot. - Yes. - Look, my love, here are also the cows we saw in Brazil. In Brazil they were elephants. - Oh it's true. - It was an elephant... - Here is a cow. - "Marito Tour". - Wow. - Did you see the music here, Lisanna? Wow. - And they are calm, you see? - Yes. - It's impossible for you to come here to Costa Rica and not like a Tico. - It is impossible. - For me, Costa Rica is non-stress. - Do you want to come quietly? It is pure life. - Pure Life. Pure Life. - Now I understand why they say 'pura vida'. - Because they are 'pura vida', really. - They enjoy life. "Saint Joseph lives". - You see? - Oh, what a dove... - It's full of doves. - You can throw corn on it, Lisanna, and it fills up. - That's why they're all there. - There's the theater, look. And there is the big Costa Rican flag. - Ah, look, how beautiful! I like it because it is different. Because there are few flags like with 5 lines, like this. I was going to say there are a lot of McDonald's. I read that it was the first country, after the United States, to have McDonald's. Can you believe it? - Ah... I couldn't believe it. I thought of one closer, Canada, I don't know. - Clear. - But it was Costa Rica. There are also Starbucks, Taco Bell... There are many... - It's well globalized. Many businesses, let's say, from the United States. - And did you know that Costa Rica doesn't have an army, my love? you told me - He has no army. - Together with Panama, they are demilitarized countries. So live it up! - Here is pure life. - Pure total life. Another thing I noticed yesterday is that we were on the bus going downtown and I saw people going in their car, they parked it, pulled out chairs and sat looking at the route. But several. And so, together, in a parking lot, and another. And that's when I started to think... Ticos, leave what you're doing in the comments. - It reminded me of the people of my town. - In Argentina, they sat on the sidewalk to see the movement. Or the Uruguayans in the park drinking mate. - Exact. But here they don't drink mate, so... - Could it be that they do the same here but on the road? - Leave in the comments. We are on the other side... There is the theater. - Ah... here it is... Art and coffee in the same place, open. Theater cafe. - We have to buy a compass, Lisanna, we always get lost... A what? - A compass. That is not used anymore... - North marks you, like this. - We will enter? Well, let's see what's up. There are tourists here. I hope you take a photo. National theater. - Ah, 'Costa Rica', there it is. - Wow. - Is the entrance free? I don't know, but there is a cafe where yes or yes you consume. - We have to pay. - How nice. - Che, look at the ceiling of the café, Lisanna. - Wow. - A very luxurious coffee. That's lovely. - Uh... Look. - Can you come in, sir? - Yes, you can come in. - Thank you. - Can. - Look, admission is free, my love. Look at you... The ceilings are very pretty. Ah... we look at it backwards... - We are Timon and Pumbaa, we... No. No... - That's right. Oh yeah now. - Clear. - Very pretty. - Wow. - If you want to enter to see the theater, - you have to pay 3,500 CRC. - And it's at 1 PM, it's a guided tour. And it lasts like 30-40 minutes. - Yes. I almost left... Look... today... Everything backwards, we fell... - It's the time zone, Lisanna. And there, "the Gran Hotel Costa Rica". Here is a park full of flowers. The scent is felt. - There's this in the park. - Like a dome. - You can put yourself there with the wings, Lisanna. - "Wings of Mexico". "They began to fly in Mexico and are landing in different cities as a gift to the world." Now they are here. Since it is a new country, we are going to look for a souvenir. - Che, did you see the cars here? They are models from the United States. - Yes, they look like the ones you see in American movies and series. Clear. - I think all the cars here are imported. Hello. - Hello, good morning, how are you doing? - Good morning. There's a lot of that lazy bear. Maybe there is - Maybe we see one on this trip, my love. Hopefully, they are a sweetheart... - And everything has the lazy bear. - Pure Life. Look how cute that one is. - How nice. - You look like you, Lisanna, when you hang from the trees. - This is for the beach exit. Clear. The one I have in my backpack that splits in half. I want to close the backpack but I don't know... - But it won't close because you brought 2 books of 10 kilos. - Who travels with two books? I'm learning languages, that's why... - Yes, but... - There you put all your things in my backpack. Those are the fights we have. That I put the things in Mateo's backpack... - No, it's that I don't bring anything so as not to carry weight. - So, she grabs and puts all her things in my backpack. - They are there. - The ethics. I automatically say "Costa Rica". I don't know why... - Because here people speak with the r like this, "Costa Rica." - Do you remember our friend Dylan? Yes. Greetings! - "Costa Rica" Dylan said. - Isn't it true, ma'am, that you say the R like that? - /R/. - Like Costa Rica? - It's pronounced like that here, isn't it? - Yes. - All the R's say that way, always. - /R/, right? - Yes. - They never say /erre/. - It isn't true? - It's like the traditional here. - Oh, did you see? - Like "jarrua". - "Jarra". - Dog. - Dog. - Dresses? - It looks like a little monkey. I'm going to take this one and I'm going to put it in your backpack. - Ahaaa. - Of course, you want to kill the old man, right? To the poor man. - Lisanna, what are you doing there? Aaah. - Come on. No... - What are you doing hanging there? I am lazy. - No... no... We chose this one! A sloth with the Costa Rican flag on it. Look how cute. - Precious. - Very striking. - And it cost 3,000 CRC. $5. - Do you want to show people what colones are like? Oh ok. - That Lisanna was wrong, poor thing, and said "culones"... - And I say "no, my love, colones". - Mateo said that... Don't blame me... - The saleswoman said that they hardly produce anything here. - They import everything to take care of nature. - That there is not much industry in Costa Rica. 2,000 CRC. And it's like plastic and on the back it has a dolphin. - Precious. I loved it. - That would be 4 USD. - Believe. A little less. - 3 with something. But we only saw the one with 2 thousand, we don't know what the others are like. - It's true. - I imagine colorful. You can go swimming with this. - You can also subscribe to the channel. Also. - The promotion, people, only for 2 thousand CRC you get 2 subscriptions. It's not free. - Oh, is it free? - It's free to subscribe. - Very good, Lisanna. Thank you! We love! - There is a bakery here. Although we don't drink coffee, we can't not try it. So let's make a sin and try a little one. - Hello. - How are you? - All good? Buenas tardes. - Good morning. - Thank you. - What can I help you with? - They say that the coffee in Costa Rica is very rich. - Of course. - We are not coffee drinkers, but here we are going to make the exception. - And we want to prove it. - A Costa Rican coffee. - With milk or black? - Black. - And is there any sweet from here in Costa Rica - that says "you have to try this one too"? - That you recommend us. - This sweet, which costs 650 CRC. - It's like original from Costa Rica. - Let's try one then, a little bit. - Yeah. And look at the giant donuts there. - Uh... - Look. - These are the caramel candy alfajores. - What are you laughing at, my love? - If it is said like that... - Whenever I go to pay, people laugh at my grandmother's panties... Yes... It's just... Mateo... - Che, look at the 1,000 CRC bill. beautiful. ooh. - How did you say they call Costa Rica? Nature bridge? ecological bridge. - Ecological bridge. Because they care a lot about the environment. wow. - Everyone has a pet. - This is $1. No, 100 CRC missing. - Put it, almost 1 USD. - 90 cents. - Everything cost 1,000 CRC. - 1.5 USD, more or less. - It's good, no? - Yes. - No, because many people said that Costa Rica is very expensive. - Even the Costa Rican himself says so. - But, so far, it seems to me the same as everywhere. It didn't seem like the end of the world to me, that is, something normal. - Normal. Lisanna won't let me lie, that's why I ask you what you think. to. - That's delicious... - It's a corn cake. Ah... - How delicious it is... I love it, I loved it... - Good, isn't it? Since I am not an expert in coffee, it seemed rich to me like everywhere else. - AHA. In other words, it is a coffee with a taste that we already know. - Give it to me that I am an expert, my love. Aah. Anyone... - I'm trying to get the toning out and the notes... - This has peach notes. - Koala. Anyone... - Some roses. - Mixed with acorns. - It is a smooth and silky coffee. - Easy to take and put it down. - Ideal for a climate between 20°C and 22°C. - More or less. - Mateo... It's not a wine... You're lost... - Look, my love, you're a fan of fruit. Yes. I wanted to see if there are fruits that we don't know about. In other words, it is a more tropical country. - Well. That's what catches my attention, because I think it's mango. Just a small mango. - That. - Ah... it's a small mango. - It is curious that here in all places they play music. - Put it on, if it's a supermarket or, I don't know, a pharmacy, - they put on a music box, did you see? - What do we have here? Let's see... That. - What's that? I don't know... that's why... - I don't know what it is either. - This one and this one. - And we can take this too. - Well. - Hi, how are you? - We wanted to buy some... - Do you want to buy one? - Yes, because we want to try fruits that we never ate before. - Let's see... - And one of those. - That. - Is that one eaten just like that? - Yes. - We want this one too. - This just opens and eats. - This one, split in half and eat the inside. - Okay. is this mango? - 500 CRC give me. This one the same, he just washes it and eats it. - With salt. - With salt? - With salt. You listened? - Thank you. Thank you. - No, thank you. - Then we tell them if we liked it. - Okay! - Thank you! - Thank you! - Pure Life! - What's that called? - Mayonnaise. - "Mayonnaise" that? - Yes, you cut it in half and add mayonnaise. - But isn't it sweet? - No. - Like a potato. - Ah... - What was the name, sir? - Pejibaye. - Pejibaye. Wow... - Pejibaye. I never saw anything like it. - So? - Yes. - Or smaller? - Not well. - Alright? - Yes. - If you want, I'll peel it for you to try it once. - And you can eat it at once. - Well. - Thank you, sir, very kind. - Let's see... Wow... - What would it be? A cousin-sister of the potato? - Like a sweet potato? - From the coconut. - From the palm tree. - And here it brings a coconut inside. - Coquito small. - Do they take this from the palm tree? - Yeah. Whoa. - Ah, I thought it was a potato... - It's hard. - How do you do it? Boiled? - They cook. - Let's see... - Hot. - Oh, I love it! - It looks like a pineapple, Lisanna. A what? - In Brazil, the pineapple. - It falls from the tree and small pineapples come out. - It tastes the same. - From the pineapple. I don't know... - Hmm. - I loved. Let's see... - How much do I owe you, miss? - 400 CRC. Let's see... - But delicious. - The Brazilian who is watching this video knows what I'm talking about. - I don't know how to say it in Spanish piñao. It reminds me, in Peru, of the corn that has big things. The big corn. - Big corn... - They put it next to the ceviche. - The slut? Pot? Something like that. It reminded me of that. And the texture is like a potato, a bit like this... Like flour. - Clear. I loved. - To eat it like that... - I would eat it if I go to university classes or whatever. - At home. Sure, it's salty. - As a snack. Yes. - Miss, here. - Keep the change for your kindness and sympathy. - Thank you! - God bless you. - Thank you so much! - See you later, thanks. - Bye. - Bye. I want a transparent short, look. - Is that how you wanted, Lisanna, one? I mean... - I, my love, want you to buy a skirt like that. Well. - Like that. I like the green bikini, look. A thong. - Oh ok. - I give it to you for Christmas, my love. There are many shops. "Christmas", there is still a year to go... There is a lot of trade. - A lot. And they have music. - And many hairdressers too. Yes. Permission, doves, permission, permission. - Permission. Permission. - Look how she drinks the water, poor thing... - They're thirsty... Poor... - Sometimes the wind comes, sometimes it goes. - When we arrived with the plane, the plane did like this. - I almost fainted. - They told us that there was a lot of wind here. - When the plane lands it's crazy. - Wow... how pretty she is... - She's cheerful. It is the Metropolitan Cathedral of San José. - Excuse me, can you enter the cathedral? - At 4pm? Thank you. At 4pm. - At 4 PM it opens. - There are several pedestrian streets in San José. - To walk and buy. - Basically, my love, what I'm realizing - is that this city is a commercial city. - As the country should not have much industry, - they live from commerce and services. - That's why there are also many banks - and North American companies that settle here. - To hire labor and sell services to other countries. How different. - How different... - Here we came home. - This is the Airbnb where we are staying. - Look how big it is. - It has a shared kitchen, everything. - Look how barbaric. - For those who do not dare to look for an Airbnb, - look for it calmly, they are safe. - It's a house. - We divide kitchen and bathroom. - Everything very clean and spotless. - For $19 per night. - Good price, good location. - And very pretty. - Look at the beautiful flowers. We have all three fruits. This looks more like a flower than something to eat, because the scent on it... It looks like a flower. - It smells like flowers... - That's why. - But they say that it opens and eats only what is in the middle, said the woman. - This, you see? This is what you eat. Ma, no... - Yes. No no. How crazy that. Look. For me it is a flower. - It tastes like petuna. For me, this is inedible... Ooh... The noise it makes... It's like milk inside. Eh... - Eh... - It looks like an oyster. No, this seems from another planet... - Look. And what did he say about this? Just from the middle. - Yes. It's very rubbery. - Hey, I liked this one. - Oh, what a scare... - It's sweet, very sweet. Is that eaten too? Or just the seeds? - I'm eating this. - I don't know, but I liked it and it's very rich. - This I would eat more times. And this, he said, if I understood correctly, you can eat it just like that. - No. - Had to remove the shell. - How hard is this... - It looks like a potato. It is a mango but it is unripe. Why do they eat hard mango here? - Ugh, how strong. - But it's mango, isn't it? But it is not ripe. - It tastes like mango. And they sell it everywhere. - But they sell it to you immature so you can boil it, for me. - It seems very acid to me... I didn't understand anything... - I understood that you have to eat them. - What I don't know is how to eat it. This is the most understandable there was. Well. And also, yesterday we found this. "Las carretitas", a 100% Costa Rican product. - Made with churro dough. No, it says "churro-flavored cookies." - But they did it with churro if it has flavor. ? - Oh, look, they're hollow in the back. That one wheel. Wow. - Hmm. It really looks like a churro. A hard churro. I liked this a lot. - Well, now we are having a pura vida experience in this place. Pure Life! Very positive. If you liked the video, give it a like.
