Costa Rica
Costa rica is a very good choice for travel or holidays as it has a good climate and very well hotels.
By Alejandro and Daniel
Why are the inhabitants called Ticos? The story goes back a long way. In 1856 and 1857 Costa Rica was besieged by an army of filibustering pirates who wanted to raid the coast. Costa Rica had help from soldiers from other neighbouring countries, who noticed that the Costa Rican fighters used the diminutive -ico, -ica (chiquitico, for example) a lot. In addition, they affectionately addressed their compatriots as hermaniticos. With time and continued use, the inhabitants of the country came to be called ticos and ticas.
The Costa Rican currency is the Costa Rican colón (₡) and is currently worth 1 euro = 725 colones, although dollars are widely used and you'll even find prices in both dollars and local currency in many shops.
