Listen Now 💜 Costa Rica, Nose Jobs & Murder




Hey True Crime Travelers,

I'm going to be a big ol' bitch in today's episode because this girl in the photo below is an idiot! An evil idiot who killed her boyfriend's love interest, stole a passport, fled to Costa Rica, got a nose job 👃🏻and tried to start her life over as a yoga teacher....after murdering someone!

...but that shit didn't work. This is an episode with justice. 🤌🤌🤌

GOODCATION OF THE WEEK

To balance our travel karma, every week, we introduce you to good causes in the destination that we cover -- a reminder that although crime and evil exists everywhere, so does good. And you can be a part of that.

But to be honest...Costa Rica doesn't need nature / eco volunteers. They have enough young, strong people to work towards eco efforts with rain forests and sloths.

But what you can do is work in hospitality where your English is needed.

Volunteer at a hostel in paradise! Here are a few great options with WorldPackers!
