Nicoya, Guanacaste Province, Costa Rica - Nicoya is one of the five Blue Zones in the world, where people traditionally live much longer and healthier lives. Today we’re learning from some of the community elders about what they do, and especially what they eat. This was a huge learning experience, and definitely many tips that we can all use!

Fonda Chorotega, Nicoya, Costa Rica - We first spent some time at Fonda Chorotega, a restaurant in Nicoya preserving traditional Costa Rican food in the region. We first cooked some local corn tortillas with cheese, then tried some tamales. Next we had an entire gallo pinto meal with organic free range chicken stew. We also had egg coffee!

Mujeres del Maíz, Nicoya, Costa Rica - Next we met up with a community from Mujeres del Maíz who specialize in preserving corn recipes from Nicoya. Corn, in all shapes, sizes, and forms is very important in longevity and local diet.

Fidel - 97 Years Old, Nicoya, Costa Rica - Finally, it was a huge honor to meet up with Fidel, who is 97 years old, and still enjoys life to the fullest!
