Costa Rica
Pura Vida
Introduction
Welcome to my page about the beautiful, biodiverse Costa Rica. My name is Charlotte Egan and in this website you will learn about three different geographical places in Costa Rica: The Cordillera de Talamanca, The Irazú Volcano, and the Arenal Lake. You will also learn about the history and demographics, the flag and social economics, the economy, and sports of Costa Rica. Above is where you can click to find out what this website offers. Each of the pages includes one paragraph or more about the topic and some pictures along the sides for some visual representations. On every page as well, you can find the citations that I have pulled from different websites that I have used. Feel free to go deeper into these websites if you are curious to learn more about what the beautiful country offers. And lastly, down below, you will find six pictures which you can explore and they represent well-known/ cool places within Costa Rica.
