Hi Cindy;
What a great job...
I have been teaching online for ten years and discovered that online tutoring is as good as face to face teaching but I think students need a space to share ideas, discuss issues, etc.

Looking forward to welcoming you personally in Jaco, Costa Rica.
thank you for your invitation and question. I am pretty fanatical about natural medicine, so noni is just another of my pet projects. I am currently developing my sales of Costa Rican noni which is 100% organic and I will be selling under my own label. The tree grows pretty much all over Costa Rica and 'my juice' is produced from fruit collected by a well organised farmers coopertive. It's a big subject so let me know exctly what you are interested in.
I have now prepared a programme for a snail farming project which I will start implementing in Bosnia in October and hope to continue in Costa Rica.
I found that you have worked in NONI project. There was one presentation here in India and people are asking our group - Tribal farmers to join and plant NONI plants.
Can you share your experience for our benifit.
Always wanted to know what happened to you. Yes , this is not friends reunited but ...
Trish and I still together and we commute between Portugal and Nottingham... no children apart from Norwegian Forest Cats
Love and kisses.....
I spent the last year doing eco-tourism research in Costa Rica. I think there are two organizations you may be interested in. Rancho Mastatal does natural building and sustainable living--an excellent place to visit. www.ranchomastatal.com
If you are interested in medicinal uses of plants, eco-villages, and sustainable living; I would also recommend Durika. www.durika.org
I felt like both were excellent models of sustainable tourism.
Best wishes, Paul
My Pura Vida experience? I've been living here for 3 years with my partner Swami John, have traveled and lived from Arenal, to Atenas, to Herradura/Jaco, to Puerto Viejo, to Puerto Jimenez, and currently live in Atenas. I do love it here, the changing from dry to rainy season now occuring a month early (must be global warming). So many beautiful and varied climates, flora and fauna. It is a very "vivid" country. We are working on bringing the idea of sustainable eco-Agra developments to Costa Rica, such that a community forms around the production of food, for the community and resale, and makes a valuable contribution to the whole and is self-sustaining. We see this as a trend for the future what with increasing energy and food costs resulting from currency inflation. It is a way for people to take the power back from the corporations and again become energy/food independent. If this interests you, please send us an email at fractionalconsulting@gmail.com, we are looking for talented individuals who share our views and would like to help find investors to get things going. There seems to be a real shortage of available funding, so we hope by coming up with an innovative concept for sustainable living, that others will come forward to support it.
Costa Rica is well situated to be at the forefront of sustainable and energy efficient development using the latest technologies. We are doing what we can.
Hasta Luego, Amiga,
