It's amazing how quickly tourism can change a country and culture. That's why I decided to enjoy Medellin for 6 months instead of just a week as initially planned. MPM – thanks for stopping by.

There are several links below, for your browsing pleasure. <br><br>My principal biz remains the travel agency in Costa Rica, which has been fortunate to grow into one of the largest in the country. We employ over 30 staff full-time. I now divide my time between our Costa Rica and Panama offices, the latter of which we opened about 5 years ago. The B&B in Panama is just over a year old and we also operate a luxury villa in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. Oh, and somewhere in between I started a little real estate shop in Panama with some different partners. Things worked out better than I planned but now I'm trying to slow down a bit and take advantage of all the great things I moved to C. America for in the first place. It's my hope to spend more time at the beach B&B with my younger sis and parents this high season and dust off my long board.<br><br>Here comes the link parade!<br><br><a href="http://www.vacationscostarica.com" rel="nofollow">www.vacationscostarica.com</a> - the first and oldest biz, CR travel agency<br><a href="http://www.vacationtopanama.com" rel="nofollow">www.vacationtopanama.com</a> - division of that agency in Panama<br><a href="http://www.pedasihotel.com" rel="nofollow">www.pedasihotel.com</a> - new B&B opened with my family in a remote part of Panama<br><a href="http://www.panamarealestatepros.com" rel="nofollow">www.panamarealestatepros.com</a> - small real estate co. in Panama with location at the beach<br><a href="http://www.mycostaricavilla.com" rel="nofollow">www.mycostaricavilla.com</a> - luxury rental Villa built in Guanacaste, Costa Rica...with help from investors Carl,
