Tiquicia's Homepage by Uri Ridelman

Welcome to Tiquicia's homepage. Here you can find everything related to my country Costa Rica. You can read our national news, sports and find out about our beautiful touristical places.

I hope you will find this page both useful and entertaining but most of all I want it to bring you closer to Tiquicia (land of the ticos) so you can get to know us.

We Costa Ricans or "ticos" (as we are popularly known) enjoy partying, having a good time and making friends, or as we say, we like to be "pura vida" (pure life). We love peace and democracy and because of that, since 1948 our government prohibited the army.

After experimenting with a blog and obtaining more than satisfactory results I've decided that the three main sections of this Web site will now be developed in a blog format because that makes for faster and simpler updates. The redesigned sections are now available online.

In the Tico Travel page you can access information on Costa Rican tourism, transportation and things you need to travel to Tiquicia.

Tico Food is the part of this site devoted to recipes of Costa Rican food, news about the Costa Rican food industry and more. 

In the Tico Estate section you will find Costa Rican real estate News and general information for those of you who plan to buy a property in Costa Rica.


Did you know?
The world record for a musician holding a single note is held by Costa Rican Saxophonist Geovanny Escalante of the famed local band Marfil, which has played in Costa Rica for many years. In 1998, the then 24-year-old artist held a steady 'A' for 90 minutes and 45 seconds, almost twice as long as the previous record held by US saxophonist Kenny G.


My Tiquicia's Blog, delivers up-to-date news on, culture, politics and the Costa Rican way of life.


Take a look at my Six Speeches That Changed The World page. It allows you to read and hear six of the most important speeches of the 20th Century.
