America is a Good Place to Shop

The shopping malls in the US, are one of the wonders of the world - and have been imitated everywhere!

This is one disadvantage to living in Costa Rica. To take advantage of the online shopping on Amazon (which is excellent!) - I have to have my packages delivered to Miami, I can't have them delivered to Costa Rica directly. Evidently, this violates some international treaty.

I can shop at - a Walmart store, or a McDonalds, or a Subway, or a Pizza Hut, or a Taco Bell - and I do this, once every week, at the nearest large town of Cartago.

These are American companies who have adapted their marketing skills to Latin American cultures - an amazing feat!
