Honeymoon at Samasati nature Retreat

Posted on Apr 24th, 2009 by Samasati : Yoga in Paradise Samasati

We had a wonderful and fun honeymoon week in Costa Rica!  It was truly unlike anything we had ever experienced before!  We loved all the girls, and especially appreciated Jemima, Merrica, Lindsey, and Kim!  (We maybe leaving some one off, but the staff just made everything so comfortable and welcoming... including you, my friend! )  George and I had a fantastic time at our Samasati honeymoon retreat!  I know, "roughing it" in the jungle is not for everyone, but for the two of us, it was perfect.  I already miss the good food, and am craving the banana cake with cocoa frosting from our last evening meal.  Do you think you could get the recipe?  If its in Spanish, it's ok, I'll have my sister translate it for me!  (Seriously!) 

 

Overall, our trip to Costa Rica was amazing, and we will recommend Samasati on the trip advisor website and to all of our friends!

 

Hugs and many thanks!
