La Flor de Paraiso eco-finca,Costa Rica

We are staying a few days at an eco-finca, 1 hour east of San Jose, Costa Rica. www.la-flor.org It's a small farm located in a beautiful cloud forest 1,300 metres high. its on the edge of the Orosi valley and lake. We are parked up in front of the horses and goat's stables. Feeding time is 0600hrs. Great to be right next to nature. Its a really lovely location and friendly eco-responsible facility to visit and stay a while and even learn a thing or two.

There is a course going on at the moment on permaculture www.permaculture.org I managed to wangle my way into a lecture - it was fascinating. I shall put a course on my wish-list, I would like to learn more about nature and how to work in harmony with it.

Yesterday, for Valentine's day we toured the valley and lake and ended up at MONTANA TRUCHA DE CACHI, a trout farm and restaurant with a difference; you catch you own fish and they cook it for you al gusto. It is well designed and incorporates the river and nature in the area and the trout was yummy. Thanks for a lovely Valentine's Day, darling Uli!!! xx
