One of my teenaged daughters recently left home for a summer student exchange program in Costa Rica. Now... I have forever been a real travelbug so I'm thrilled to hear of her adventures and to learn about the details that define the culture of the small, Central American country. After I read her e-mails, I find myself Googling everything I can about Costa Rica even real estate for sale. Bright colored, stucco homes with courtyards wait in quiet villages for the right family to come along. I peruse the photos, wondering what retirement in a warm climate would be like...Retirement???? Way too far away for me. So instead, my thoughts drift toward entrepreneurship there...Oh to be the one to bring home staging to the forefront of real estate marketing in some sunny, exotic place where siestas reign as a favorite pastime, barefoot is the dress code and the sound of wind in the palms beats out the sound of rain on the rooftops. I glance now at the pineapple and mangos that grace my fruitbowl, and begin to figure out how to say "Spruce It Up! Home Staging" in Spanish.
