For all you adventurous chicas out there...



Since last spring I have been following all of the deals on Living Social and Groupon and I must admit, there are occasionally some amazing deals!
I found this amazing deal in the Living Social Escapes section for a 7-Night Women's Surfing Adventure in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica! How amazing would this be for a Spring Break trip? They have two trips available in mid-late March (sorry for those that don't have Spring Break until April) as well as two in November. As it says it is a women's only trip and it is actually like a Surf Camp where you share a Cabana with other girls! It'd be so fun to go with your best chica and then meet other girls that have some of the same interests as you! I must admit I was seriously considering it however, my vacation time during school pretty much always goes to going to visit my grandparents, it's very important I do, and I love to see them as often as possible. But someday, a trip like this is something I would love to do.

Here are a few things it includes:
Four Surf Lessons, Daily Surfing, and Unlimited Equipment Use
Two Meals Per Day (Beverages Not Included)
Welcome Happy Hour
Two Yoga, Acrobatic Silk, or Capoeira Classes
Beach Volleyball and Isla Tortuga Snorkel Tour
Guided Tour of Montezuma Waterfalls
Zip-Line Adventure
First Round of Drinks and Barbecue at Vista de Olas Hotel & Spa's Infinity Pool
Latin and Reggae Music Dance Nights
Professional Surf Photo Session with CD of Images and Chica Surf Adventures Hat
One Outdoor Tropical Back Massage
How great would that be? Add to the package beach horse back riding and this would be one amazing trip!
If you would love this trip if it were another time of year the website Chica Surf Adventures is adding April and May trips package for $3,300 instead of Living Socials 50% off for $1,650. If they're having summer dates, I'm gonna be there!
Who else here would love to go on a vacation like this?

Why I really love sites like these because they have tons of deals inspiring me to try something new: scuba diving lessons, sky diving, ariel yoga, to things like concerts, shows, or maybe $40 to spend at your favorite new reasturant for only $20.
So check out some other deals in your area, the escapes, and the adventures near you! As well as Groupons deals.
Hint: Just from previous experience, sign up to get emails from you city and check it every day! Over the summer I planned on going to a Rihanna concert and floor ticket were a few hundred dollars. I hadn't checked my email that day and come to find out they had various floor tickets for over 50% off! They sold fast so the deal was over when I checked it the next day. Unfortunately my friend and I ended up spending $40 for seats in the far back, when we would've spent $40 for amazing floor seats. I had an amazing time still since we got LUCKY and were moved to the first row of our section, perfect view and dance space! We also got to hangout at the tour buses with some amazing people and one of my favorite singers!(I'll write about the night in a separate post if you all would like) BUT I am still kicking myself for not being in amazingly better seats for the same price!
