Our Splendid Life in the Southern Zone of Costa Rica


A few visionary locals in CR have been developing an alternative community currency trade system and we have something ready to start testing to get some feedback. It is currently in English but a Spanish version will be out soon after testing is done. If you are not happy with the state of the world financial system, rather not deal with backs, prefer to support our local communities and help us test an alternative in the new economy please send an email to ben@ecojoya.com
