Living Saltwater Fit in Costa Rica with Julie Gohring
Julie shares her story of how she ended up moving to Costa Rica as well as all of
her fitlife philosophies through Saltwater Fit in this interview.
Julie made the same leap as I did in that she had visited Costa Rica on vacations and then decided to sell everything and move there full-time.
Julie shares a little bit about what it is like to LIVE in a beach town in Costa Rica…
One of the things I read when I was doing my research prior to moving to Costa Rica was that property is very easy to buy and hard to sell because people move there thinking it is going to be amazing but then they can’t handle the culture shock. My response to people who ask me how it was living there goes a little like this, “it is gorgeous and the people are amazing but it is still a developing country so most of the things we take for granted here are from non-existent to unpredictable to luxuries there. ”
