COSTA RICA: According to Desai, who lived in Costa Rica for four months in the winter of 2013, one of the country's main draws is the fact that the dollar can go a long way here. It also has a large population of expats and remote workers, and is home to an incredible scenery of beaches, jungles, and mountains.
