While cycling on the road, Pai in northern Thailand, I held out to see some very interesting signs on the roadside to a place called Pura Vida. The name "Pura Vida" evokes memories of the beautiful Costa Rica, where Pura Vida (Pure Life literally HAD) is a popular greeting and an attitude that is an essential part of the culture of Costa Rica
Pura Vida fascinated by research in Thailand, I followed the instructions and ended onHillside Resort little about 5 km from the town of Pai. Built on the site of orange groves, this boutique resort eight bungalows in a beautiful garden - the middle, a large pond with water lilies and other aquatic plants.
Admiring the gardens, the owners - an elderly Dutch and Thai wife, invited me to come join them for a cup of freshly roasted coffee Hill Tribe. Chatting with the Dutch, was a small story of how he finallyThailand as a hotelier. Of course, his decision to relocate was about meeting a beautiful Thai lady who later became his wife. Show me around, I was impressed with the solid construction of relatively spacious bungalows. As I asked the owner of the place name, then confessed to having visited Thailand to Costa Rica - one day, if he agreed to withdraw, the construction of a small tourist center, has determined that Pura Vida has a catchy name for hisnew location. He is absolutely right - Pura Vida is a name most visitors will remember.
Pura Vida is one of the newest bungalows with Pai splashed on the scene in November 2006.
