Grażyna and Jacek Obrąpalscy settled in Atenas, Costa Rica in 2007, leaving it in 2010. They bought a plot of land, built a house, established and cultivated a garden. They made friends with their neighbors. In the new reality, they learned to live effectively. They not only admired the Cordillera from the terrace of their home, but also fought to the death with the laws of tropical nature, fell into the traps of everyday life, and experienced what pura vida means in practice. Obrąpalska's account is a story without illusions. Presenting also snapshots from trips to Nicaragua and Panama, the author uses a distinctive line, reveals the mutual relationships between political, economic and cultural neighbors. He writes like someone who knows that it is not so close to paradise.
