In Madrid, London, Lima, Liberia (CR), Auckland for our professional activities. We just recently spent three years in New Zealand but the call of South America, specifically and especially Costa Rica led us to Playa Tamarindo.
Laurent has known Costa Rica for over 18 years. He came for the first time for a solo surf trip. He fell madly in love with this beautiful country and it’s adorable citizens that open the way to the most incredible encounters. His love for Costa Rican made him come back 9 times and to set up a business a few years ago. His deepest dream brought him back to definitively settle there with his loved one.
In 2014, he rediscovered the country with his wife with the vision of setting up a new business in the hospitality sector. Agélie is a professional in this sector (having worked in 3 stars Michelin restaurants, Relais & Chateaux, Westin / Sofitel Demeures Hotel, Ascott group and fine luxury grocery store).
