Infos

Erin Van Rheenen has made the move to Costa Rica herself, and in Moon Living Abroad Costa Rica, she uses her know-how to provide insight and firsthand advice on navigating the language and culture of this beautiful country. Erin outlines all the information you need — including how to obtain visas, arrange finances, set up your daily life, gain employment, and choose schools — in a smart, organized, and straightforward manner, making planning the move abroad manageable. The guide also includes practical advice for a variety of needs and budgets on how to rent or buy a home, whether it's a condo in the San José suburb of Escazú, a wooden house in coastal Tortuguero, or a mountain retreat with a view of Arenal Volcano. With color and black-and-white photos, illustrations, and maps to help you find your bearings, Moon Living Abroad Costa Rica makes the transition process easy for tourists, business people, adventurers, students, teachers, professionals, families, couples, and retirees looking to relocate.

Erin earned a B.A. in Latin American Literature from the University of California at Santa Cruz and a Masters in Fiction Writing and English Literature from the City University of New York.
