Tamarindo - Costa Rica

After a weeks chilling I was ready to move onto somewhere a little less sleepy. Linn who i'd met on the plane hadn't shutup about Tamarindo (where she would be basing herself) and the amazing nightlife so it had become branded in my mind as a place I must visit – so I booked my ticket and travelled north along the pacific coast. Leaving Santa Teresa I was feeling a lot more comfortable with this solo traveling malarkey after a week of quality rest!! I was now ready to embrace this traveling experience so forced myself away from a private room and into the dorm. Turning up at my new abode in Tamarindo I found I had massively lucked in – i'd been put in a dorm with me and 4 very hot swiss girls! They were lovely too and was quite amusing to have gone from my own private space to now sharing a room which was full of hairbrushes, hairdriers, drying bikinis and make-up!! I only had 3 nights in Tamarindo which was enough for me – I found it way more touristy and developed than sleepy Santa Teresa and didn't like the feel of the place too much. Still it was a good place for me to get chatting to randoms and making some new traveling friends over a few cervezas !
