Expert Profile: Luna Nueva

Expertise:  I am a Costa Rican and I lived in Costa Rica up until two years ago, when I moved to the U.S. I can answer general questions about Costa Rica, like "is it O.K. to drink tap water?" "do I need special vaccinations?", "what kind of transportation is available to go to Puntarenas?", "where can I go shopping?", etc. I cannot answer questions about surfing. I can answer questions in English, Spanish and French.

Experience in the area
I was a volunteer at allexperts for several years. I also used to have a website about Costa Rica.

Education/Credentials
B.A. in General Studies
Professional Translator
