WELCOME.
YOU’RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE
Whether youāre planning to relocate to Costa Rica or have already moved abroad, both can have its challenges. Let me be your guide.
Iām here to empower you in your journey of moving abroad so that you can make your dream of living in Costa Rica a reality.
Hey! I’m Chrissy.
Your relocation counselor and life abroad mentor.
In 2012, at the age of 37, my 17-year-old cat and I moved to Costa Rica. It was a GIANT leap for me from my everyday life in California. And, as I’m always going to be real with you… it wasn’t easy. There have been a lot of mistakes, missteps and mishaps.
But! Along the way I’ve learned how to create contentment amongst the chaos and it’s all been so very worth it.
And that’s what I want for YOU.
To save you the stress, time, energy and money that I wasted trying to figure things out.
To feel at ease as you’re prepping to move abroad and ease when you move to Costa Rica and begin your new life.
There are so many pieces of the puzzle that you have to figure out when you decide to move to Costa Rica (and a lot of unexpected things that will pop up along the way!).
You don’t have to go it alone…
