Pura Vida

Pura Vida is a greeting of good energy. Just like the expressions: tudo bem, aloha, carpe diem, and tamu junto, the expression Pura Vida conveys a sense of well-being, happiness, and enjoyment! All of this is the style of Pura Vida Hostel.

This course was incredibly helpful and inspiring. It broke everything down in a clear, easy-to-understand way and made the entire process feel much more approachable and achievable. I loved how practical and motivating it was—it gave me confidence, direction, and a better understanding of how to move forward with travel, collaboration, and opportunities like this. I walked away feeling excited, prepared, and genuinely grateful for the knowledge and encouragement it provided.
