Nicoya, Guanacaste Province, Costa Rica – Nicoya is one of the five Blue Zones in the world, where people traditionally live much longer and healthier lives. Today we’re learning from some of the community elders about what they do, and especially what they eat. This was a huge learning experience, and definitely many tips that we can all use!

Fonda Chorotega, Nicoya, Costa Rica – We first spent some time at Fonda Chorotega, a restaurant in Nicoya preserving traditional Costa Rican food in the region. We first cooked some local corn tortillas with cheese, then tried some tamales. Next we had an entire gallo pinto meal with organic free range chicken stew. We also had egg coffee!

Mujeres del Maíz, Nicoya, Costa Rica – Next we met up with a community from Mujeres del Maíz who specialize in preserving corn recipes from Nicoya. Corn, in all shapes, sizes, and forms is very important in longevity and local diet.

Fidel – 97 Years Old, Nicoya, Costa Rica – Finally, it was a huge honor to meet up with Fidel, who is 97 years old, and still enjoys life to the fullest!

  1. If you aren't at least salting your avacado you're living life wrong anyway. I have some lime salted pepper that is off the chain on it…

  2. Yeah, we have Artesian Wells and springs in Texas and Arkansas. Much better water. Nothing I've seen so far is any different than what we eat around here. Including iguana.

  3. I watch your videos now and then and it’s nice that you go around the world eating different food, but did you ever stop to think like you mentioned in this video, how much the elderly lady enjoyed eating the thick corn tortilla with her cheese, small bites at a time, not shoving down large mouthfuls that make you look like you’re about choke. I’m a viewer and it’s my opinion that it doesn’t look pretty seeing you eat that way, how can you really say a food is good if you don’t allow your taste buds to savor it. Again it’s how you eat in all your videos and it doesn’t look good.

  4. My friend,im a huge fan of your Channel,i love watching all your videos ,anways it would be great if you travel to my Country PAPUA NEW GUINEA and try out some our local foods and also see the landscape,id love to walk you aroud,cheers
