"Tico time"

"Tico time" is the phrase people use in Costa Rica to describe its laid back lifestyle. Things are definitely much slower paced down here and you see people enjoying life more. We were in a restaurant in San Jose and the food took forever to get to our table. The Costa Ricans just say, don't stress, it's "Tico time", order another cerveza. Even though it's so different from our culture mindset in the US, I really enjoy this more relaxed approach to living :) Pura Vida!
