The currency used in Costa Rica is called the colón (plural: colones) and is named after Christopher Columbus. Known as Cristóbal Colón in Spanish, he was the first known European to reach Costa Rica and is honored for it.
A basic bottle of water here in Costa Rica will run anywhere between ₡550 to ₡1,250 (or roughly one or two U.S. dollars) based on brand and the store pricing.
Roman style fettuccine with alfredo sauce and Texas toast on the side!
A lot of country music, especially Miranda Lambert and Kacey Musgraves.

Textbooks! Lots of osteology and dental anthropology textbooks to help with my work.
Y'all...do not take your free textbooks for granted; these books are crazy expensive (like I could buy a whole new, non-outlet store, wardrobe with the money I have spent on textbooks here).
