S1E3: Costa Rica - ‘Turtle training, unexpected arrivals and pillow envy’
Show Notes

In this episode, Rachel and Emily cast their minds back to the Costa Rican coast, reliving their ridiculously haphazard journey from the capital city of San Jose to Gandoca Beach, to embark on a sea turtle conservation project. From unlikely saviours wearing G Unit t-shirts, to their first taste of remote, jungle living, this blog entry is the perfect illustration of how the kindness of strangers can really make the difference between travel success, and being left to survive alone on the Panama border, with only a pillow and a pair of sunglasses to your name.
