[ABOUT JOE BAUR]
Joe Baur is a travel writer, filmmaker and author. He’s also the host of the Without A Path travel podcast and has contributed to a variety of international travel publications, including BBC Travel, Yahoo! Travel, National Geographic and more. He loves a fried egg on a variety of meats, but hates pretending someone else wrote this bio. For now, he lives in Düsseldorf and is looking for his next big project.
'Talking Tico: [Mis]adventures of a gringo in and around Costa Rica' is his latest books!
Costa Rica is one of the most sought after vacation destinations in the Americas with some of the world’s most attractive natural surroundings teeming with wildlife. Most visitors spend years saving up for a trip of a lifetime, or perhaps even a honeymoon, but Joe decided to move there for ten months to get a closer look at life in and around Costa Rica.
Over the course of his time abroad, Joe brings his experiences to life alongside the history of the region as he travels throughout Costa Rica and its Central American neighborhood with stops in Panama, El Salvador and Guatemala. Xenophobic expatriates, delicious food, vibrant market scenes, an epic battle with Mothra, and inevitable culture clashes all make an appearance in Talking Tico, leaving readers with a new impression of this fascinating region.
