Our Story

Being in nature always makes me feel good, calm. The hussle of everyday life seems to be less important. And these Corona days made me think about what I really wanted in my life. And I came to realize that I wanted to contribute to help nature instead of using it. In lack of better words to describe it. But yet no idea how I could realize that. Knowing that I had only very basic knowledge about nature, I started reading on the internet. After some investigation I decided to study “nature” in Costa Rica at the university. 

I followed several courses (a.o) Permaculture, Agroecology and Sustainability. And these courses and the field excursions we held to the protected rainforests opened my eyes. I was profoundly moved by the diverse landscapes, from towering volcanoes to rich tropical rainforests teeming with unique wildlife. At the same time realizing the urgent need for protecting these biodiverse spaces and promoting sustainable living. It gave me a deep understanding of our planet’s intricate ecosystems, its resilience but also about its delicate balance when disturbed. 

And due to the Permaculture course I understood something has to be done and can be done. And my way of doing that is by providing the opportunity for people to learn how, and to spread the word when coming back from their educational holiday.

I founded Costaricko in 2023, which is not just a travel company; it’s a platform for education and change. When traveling with us you will experience exploring exotic fauna and flora while shedding light on their ecological importance.
