Tirimbina, Costa Rica –
The room was Spartan.
I’m talking monastery Spartan.
It had a couple of twin beds, and the type of metal shelving that you normally find in a restaurant pantry.
Plus a small, student-sized desk.
That was it.
And it did have an air conditioner, above the back door, with a remote control.
And instructions to turn it off whenever we left the room.
I felt lucky that we had a bathroom, in the room, and not some outhouse that we would need to find in the dark.
And the bathroom did have a shower.
Oooo, talk about luxury!
