What I do and where I am

Welcome!

I am happy you visit my new blog.

I just started working at Revista Del Sol in Samara, Costa Rica and with this blog I will keep you up to date with everything that is happening here.

I am a second year college student in Amsterdam, the Netherlands studying Leisure Management. For people who have never heard of it, it is a bachelor study with management as the major and with a focus on the leisure field. With this I mean tourism, events, project management, media, hospitality, sports and much more. My program includes a 5 months internship which I chose to do at Revista Del Sol.

With some research online, some luck and the privilege of meeting the right people I got in contact with Tyrone Jackson, the owner of the magazine. At the moment he is busy with preparing the next issues which will be publish in October this year so he was looking for assistance. I started working here to support him with the many tasks that are involved in creating this magazine. As it is a personal and small-sized company I think I will get the opportunity to learn a lot for my future career and make my first experiences in the work field of leisure.

There are many different tasks involved but as it is only my first day I will tell you about them when I know more about it.

On this site I will write about my work at Revista Del Sol. I hope you will follow and let me know what you think. If you have any questions feel free to write me.

The company it self provides the magazine Del Sol which includes any kind of information about the areas of Samara Beach, Carrillo and Nosara and its surrounding beaches including Playa Guiones and Playa Pelada.

I will, of course, inform you when the website gets updated but feel free to visit it any time and leave comments. (www.revistadelsol.com)

The magazine is available for free in this area and serves as a great guide for any kind of activities visitors or locals have planed.

I have discovered that all surfers I met here use the tide chart which Del Sol provides to make sure they get to the beach on time for the best waves.

I personally was very happy with the article about surfing rules and tip. It provided me and all other people who have never stepped on a surfboard before with the basic rules you need to follow when riding the waves. http://revistadelsol.com/PageDisplay.aspx?Hname=26

There is much more to read and discover in the magazine but I will end my first entry here.

There is a lot of work to do.

See you soon!

Pura Vida
