After 8 sad years of having a man who hardly knew where he stood as a president, I see my country smiling with brand new hopes for a better future. Barack Obama starts fresh today in his new charge as the president of the United States of America and I just want to wish him the best.

Housing project in Guanacaste

 

Although I may be living in Costa Rica, but I can see how all the mistake made by the previous so called president reflects all over the over and Costa Rica is no different. Small countries are affected by the actions of big countries all the time and Costa Rica was definitely feeling the pain all the bad decision making from the past government was generating.

 

I am happy and hopeful like any other gringo will be and here in Guanacaste the American community was happy to watch Obama take over, we feel sorry that he has come and pick up the pieces to what once was a trusted country, but we know he can do the job well and nicely.

 

As for me, I have a long day ahead of me getting documentation and plans together to continue with my project of housing development; Guanacaste beaches are crowded today since the weather is definitely the best in the past few months and people are enjoying it as much as they can, I would too. Now any other development project is finally getting back on track and Guanacaste is again the city in progress I am used to see.
