San José

The National Theatre of Costa Rica (Spanish: Teatro Nacional de Costa Rica) is Costa Rica's national theatre, located in the central section of San José.   Sometimes its hard to take in everything that's in front of you. So in those cases I focus on a small piece of the whole. There by easing the sensory overload and allowing me to enjoy what is before me.

The room was nasty. The walls were dirty, bed was like sleeping on concrete, AC is overly complicated on how it operates, floors were grimy, bathroom had mold all over, and the water was ice cold no matter which way you turn the knob.
