Gone are the days of mailing letters, using landlines, and tuning in at a specific time for a show. With information at our fingertips it's increasingly easier to "silo" or "bubble" ourselves into our own reality that our algorithms feed us. It's real easy to conform to what is being pushed at us, but it keeps us in our "bubble" when we could be doing something firsthand, away from the digital reaches.
Costa Rica Frika CRF was born on the principle where first hand experiences, cultural exchange, friendship building all provide the foundation for rich knowledge acquistion. It could be in many forms, however it needs to be in person.
CRF provides opportunities for knowlege for full immersion into the culture of Costa Rica. We do this by offering individual and group educational immersion experiences and exchanges.
High School Exchange
High School Exchange
With such a connected world it is almost impossible to stand out without international experience. The sooner students can get this experience the sooner they will be able to apply that experience to their lives. By participating in an exchange program participants are introduced to a foreign culture but with the safety and guidance of a host that is equally motivated to learn more about you and your culture.
Costa Rica Frika’s high school group exchange program gives students the opportunity to host a student from Costa Rica, visit a student in Costa Rica, or do both.
Stay with students from Costa Rica sister host school for up to two weeks. Attend school and go on field trips during the week and spend nights and weekends with host family.

Individual Experiences
Individual Experiences
Costa Rica Frika believes that everyone should partake in international volunteering and/or interning at least once in their life. Providing volunteer service in a foreign country proves to be just as rewarding for the individual as it is for the host organization. Doing it on your own pushes you out of your comfort zone and forces you to interact with the culture. Performing service allows the volunteer/intern to fully immerse themselves in the community and they are able to develop relationships that continue, even after the experience ends.
