Last week we travelled through the centre of Costa Rica. For this last week in the country we have a busy programme... We leave the central valleys of the country and go with our Land Rover defender, first to the Caribbean coast and then to the Pacific Coast. On our way we are looking for some of the country's most iconic wildlife. It is hard to spot wildlife for rookies like us, even in a country with so much fauna like Costa Rica. But slowly we get better and better. We finish our journey around the gorgeous Osa Peninsula, a place like no other. But we let you discover it in the video.
In the following week a lot of change is going to happen. We are very excited to share it with you. In the meantime if you want to support us for free: subscribe to the channel and watch another video!
Until next week, take care!
Nick and Mathilde

Costa Rica = Life is Good!!!!! What a beautiful country full of natural beauty!
Thank you Nicole! Yes totally Pura Vida !
I was just thinking about you a couple minutes ago and then boom your video popped on. So far very beautiful with all the wildlife and the sloths and the gorgeous Caribbean coast, beautiful blue water and Lush palm trees. I love it!! 🌴🌴🌞🌴🌴🌞🌴🌴
Hahahaah we had a few technical issues with the upload this morning 😅😅😅 but finally out !!! Thanks so much Jeff
It makes my heart sing to see wildlife in its natural state .May god keep it so.
Yes it is crazy that it feels exceptional… should not be really but we were so emotional too
Your adventures in Costa Rica were incredible and amazing. You are the best adventurers on RUclips. You take us to so many places. Both sides the Caribbean and the Pacific are both beautiful. The wildlife is just amazing and you saw so much and caught so much on the video. This is definitely one of my favorite countries, it's very sad that you are leaving so soon I could easily stay there for months. Thanks for taking us there. 👍🏻👍🏻🌴🌴🌴🌞🌴🌴🌴🌞
It was really awesome. One could stay for ever for sure but we are happy to move forward cause we want to get to South America too. After so much jungles and ocean we re ready for a change of landscape
@@NextMeridianExpedition But you're headed for the biggest jungle in the world. The AMAZON!
Encore une terrible vidéo.
Je vous remercie d'avoir partagé tous ces moments avec nous.
Pura Vida et à très bientôt.
Michel
Merci Michel! On espère continuer à te décevoir de la sorte 😉 Pura vida !
Ya Man...Love the island music, food and views...Allll that was missing was some boat drinks..
Hahahah island music always 😍😍😍 agreed that is the only thing missing …
loved the costa rica series!
Loved it too! Thanks for following us here!
The water in the Caribbean is always beautiful turquoise blue and always warm. Every time we went to a Caribbean Island the water was always perfect and warm. It's also just like that in South Florida, Miami and the keys and Key West.
We would love to go to Florida one day … not for now but will happen
@@NextMeridianExpedition Excellent! There is a lot to see in all of Florida and there are many beautiful beaches. I think you would really like South Florida and the Everglades and of course you would like all the keys and Key West there are many Crystal Clear Springs that you can swim with the manatees. There is a lot to see and do in Florida. I know you are more into adventurers but if you go to Florida you should at least go to Disney World for one day it's really something to see especially Epcot.
Wow, how good is that Osa Peninsula.
Really really a magical place
I liked Costa Rica, beautiful places, thx for showing it ❤❤
ThNks for watching ! Super super nice of you
You guys are awesome!
You too Theresa ! Thanks for following and taking the time to comment
Super super video!
So nice to see the wildlife in Costa Rica and the beaches continue to be spectacular.
What a nice place - only problem is with 40C temperatures, I would be in the water almost permanently!
Best wishes for your next destination. 😊
You get used to it. You wear lightweight shorts, flip-flops or sandals, and a tank top or muscle shirt and you don't wear underwear. That will keep you much cooler.
Thanks Geoff! That s about what we were doing… we were going through our water tank so so fast … we had to fill it up every other day …
@@NextMeridianExpedition Yes, I can imagine! Staying cool and also well hydrated is the key thing!
Another wonderful video! Not sure why, stopped watching your vids after Alaska. And now I am catching up. Has been binge watching since last week though I started with Angetina and Antartica and now from USA to this one. Thank you for all these great videos. Excited to go home after a tiring day at work to watch your videos. And you keep on improving and improving. Keep on travelling and thank you for letting us join you on your adventures. Take care, Nick, Mathilde and Albo!😊
Awesome! Thank you for going back in time! No problem that s the beauty of RUclips you can watch and rewatch whenever ! Thank you for noticing the progress we hope to progress further. You can check out also our 3 parts documentary series on the panamerican it s a good summary! And now Australia !!!!
Pura vida por visitar mi país, Vous êtes on fait a bon Voyage.
Merci Paulo! Pura vida !
I really enjoy your videos. Their quality and content is excellent! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks a lot Winkle! It is super nice of you to take the time to comment
Hi, what a place, what a video, good to see there’s a place in the world that’s looking after there wildlife. All the best from Kevin in the UK.
Yes it is true, a bit of a pity it is so exceptional to find them … but at least places where it is still possible
Great Journey in Costa Rica! Lovely nature and people makes a country so welcoming to explore! Can't wait for Panama, will bring back some lovely memories from our trip last year!
Thanks Cristian! We did not have much time in Panamá but I hope you ll still enjoy what we have!
I appreciate you taking the time to capture videos of the wildlife in Costa Rica. They are beautiful. I also enjoy the landscapes and food! Thank you for sharing & safe journey.
They are so special! It was definitely the highlights of our stay in costa
Nice nature and vegetation 🌴🌴🌴😎👍
totally beautiful :)
Wow guys! Beautiful video and wonderful spots you have found! Very impressed with the birds and the crocs! But I wonder maybe that sloth was moving? Ha Ha ? Thanks so much and looking forward as always! Hasta la vista baby!
hahahaha maybe it was indeed ! we should have let the video recording all day come back and fast forward
Also love this video!! You are better and better on that! Love to see that wildlife and the color of the ocean...so so beautiful! 😍 Although you seem a bit tired, especially Nick.. take care of you guys and stay safe!🤗🤗
Probably the heat yes it was taking a toll on us really ! Thanks a lot Mirela !
As is typical.....Wonderful episode! ❤
Thanks Gary!
Nice window in the money, the pound has too. I just sawwhen being in the UK;)
Merci pour cette chouette balade ! 😜😍
Merci de venir avec nous en ballade Alex !
Great video as always. You always find the best campsites! Love the sloth and the scarlet macaws ❤
It is so easy to find amazing spots in Costa Rica it is insane almost hahaha. Yes those two were the best
It I want to be entertained and educated, all I have to do is find one of your weekly videos. You manage to find the best people and the wildlife we all seek to find when we travel. Since we can't travel as you do, this is a great way to see the incredible sights, people and animals of each place you visit.
That is super super nice of you to take the time to leave such a motivating comment Rhousto1. An immense thank you from both of us.
What a spectacular countryside for over landing in . Great wild life and awesome camping spot’s. Your videos are all ways so entertaining to view . Cheers and thanks again for sharing your wonderful journey with us all your over landing friends . 😁from Steve Stott in Sutherlin Oregon U.S.A. :) :) 🌎🍻👍🏼
Thank you Steve! Yes it made for a pretty special landscape 😍thanks for being here always !
@@NextMeridianExpedition …😁
Incredible footage once again, Mathilde and Nick. Some pretty challenging drone shots! I noticed power wires once- that must have been tricky. Great wildlife shots…one animal I’d never heard of before (the long-nosed monkey type)-didn’t catch its name. Thanks for the taste of paradise.
Hi Heather ! Thanks a lot! It was a nice set to film in . The annimal is a coati :) they are very very cute
It must be hot there to get into cold water! I’m not a fan of cold water ether. The mud run looked like fun. Beautiful area. Yep it’s an awesome adventure!!
I have been in that water it is not cold...right Matilde?
Thanks Ron! It was really boiling so it felt super refreshing in the end yes!
That is really personal I was fine and was so warm I was happy but for people more sensitive to cold the temperature difference was a bit more to overcome haha
Agreeing with so much others are saying here: you guys are amazing and we appreciate you and your awesome adventures together so much. Stay forever young and happy!
Thank you Shers 😍😍 this is so nice of you. And thanks for taking the time every week to leave such motivating message
What amazing animals and nature in that country! Drive safe and se you in Panama right! Injoy! Kind regards Erik
See you in Panamá Erik! Thanks a lot!
wow so super travel❤❤❤❤
Thank you!
beautifull...thank you....
dont ever stop posting and I will never ever stop watching......
Thanks Robert!
Costa Rica should hire you for a tourism campaign. Your content from there has been exceptional!
Hahahaha the place is exceptional and the content was merely trying to be at the level 😅
Another amazing video, pura vida!
Thank you! Pura Vida
Thanks
Sooooooooooooooper.
yeeeeessssssss
Mesmerising wildlife shots, though I think you have misunderstood the sloth. Its purpose in life is not to move. You could have waited years for any activity. Love it that you meet people who are following the expedition everywhere you go. Costa Rica clearly liked you as much as you liked it - it cried when you left.
hahahahaha sloth got it right ;) they know
Estoy totalmente de acuerdo Costa Rica, sus paisaje ,animales y sus gentes hace de el un país maravilloso. Hace unos 10 años lo recorrí igual que vosotros en 4x4. Saludos desde España.
Si es una maravillosa ❤️❤️❤️
Une autre belle aventure. Je suis allez au Costa Rica en novembre dernier. Quel beau pays ! Continuez votre beau voyage à travers le monde. Très diverstissant ! Costa Rica es PURA VIDA !!
Pura Vida Pete! Oui c etait vraiment super ! On continue 🤩
We utilized your insightful tips for our Costa Rica journey! Our video is up, so don't hesitate to give it a watch and let us know what you think. Sending warm regards 😘, keep it going!
Wow amazing thanks for sharing
Gorgeous macaws, where they should be and the toucan - how amazing! And how wonderful that you’re getting to experience all this awesomeness!
That one drone shot of a beach looked like a whale’s tail.
yes they really should be more effort on preserving wildlife around.... yes it is actually named after that
Hi! 🙋You know, I've always had a picture in my mind of Costa Rica and you have enhanced it. I really enjoyed seeing all of the great beaches you got to camp on. The jungle and the waterfalls were so beautiful!
The wildlife was super cool! You two really savored Costa Rica! Happy Travels.
We did too… hahaha our image was so good we were scared to be disappointed but in reality was even better
Can’t recieve notification i search you are still in youtube. Good to see you again guys.
Oh no! But welcome back. You can activate the notification bell to get all the new videos :)
So glad you had time for the Osa, a favorite place of ours, with so much nature and wildlife. Has been lovely to see familiar places again! ❤️
YEs we are not disappointed we kept a few days to go there. such a a beautiful site
Was just in CR and I saw this bridge with crocodiles with the cows right next to them, and I was worried about the cows too!
Maybe they don’t go on the other side …hahaha but damn I would be a scared cow
Super nice video!
Awesome footage of the Black- mandible Toucan ( Ramphastos ambiguus)
Thanks for sharing!
Exceptional right? And eating like that it was awesome and super unique
You forgot to go to Guanacaste beaches. Maybe the next time you visit us, you go there. Have a good trip.
We did not Forget We spent 2 weeks there it is just another épisode
Awesome video as always Nick and Matilda. Those were some really Epic campsites and the locals are so friendly and the wildlife is so amazing everywhere you look.
Yes really special places! we had an awesome time but it is now moment to move to something else
We love your videos and travels. It is like we are on the adventure with you (and no drama...LOL). 😀
I agree - a very harmonious couple which makes it a joy not a headache to travel with for sure
That is the best compliment!! What we lack in technical knowledge maybe we gain in authenticity! But the goal is to improve both!
What an awesome trip with those beautiful wildlife and abundant rainforest,a perfect adventure ,as always keep safe always on the road👌👍💪💪💪
Thanks june ! We will and thanks for watching and coming back everyweeek
Another lovely video. My Saturday is now complete. And no, I don't forget the camera person. It was my first thought when I saw the mud.😊
Hahahah thank you so much 😊 that s good to know
Nice you have seen many wildlife 👏👏👏👏👏and great tracks Albo looking strong 💪💪💪👌👍
Albo is too form ! Thanks a lot Lucio hope all is well for you
@@NextMeridianExpedition everything is great around we're thank you for asking a big hug for you guys
Saludos Pura vida 🇨🇷 Costa Rica
Gracias Edwin! Pura Vida !
So cool! You did very well on the wildlife viewing! Costa Rica is very beautiful!
Agreed completely exceptional
Bon chance! Pura vida!🍀
Pura vida!!!
The colors on the macaw and toucan were so brilliant. Im sure they were even more in person. Glad you saw them and the sloth. I asked my husband to bring colones back for me to see. It is very pretty money and i was suprised it was plastic. Maybe for all the rain?
Yes their colors were incredible ! Yes the money is awesome a few countries in the region have that. Probably yes to avoid they break. Those are super solid it is very very convenient
Hi, the money is in plastic for a longer lasting. Kind regards from a tico (costarican) Pura Vida!! 🇨🇷
"Cool snake?" But it was better when I saw all the other nature. Im officially jealous. ☺️ Too b young and have Albi. Is the photography better or is it the country? BTW Nick am empathizing about cold water. Looking forward to next journey AV. 👼
Hahaha yes I think it is one of the most venomous in the region …
It is the country I think hahahaha we hope it was us but I think all the credit goes to Costa Rica !
that yellow snake is a pit viper, be careful of them. nocturnal, but if they bite you it's fatal if you don't receive medical attention fast enough! ✌️
thanks! yes we ve heard that... so small it is scary to think you could run into them by accident
yeah, they're very dangerous for sure!
Love the music 🎶!!! Where did you get it from? Any website? Loyalty free? Or paid? If no info received, please jump into the river! Lol 😂
Epidemic sound ! There are gems on there when you take time to dive ! It s super warm here so I might go jump in the river anyways
@@NextMeridianExpedition, great! I'll look into it...thank for the info
So you guys speak French, Spanish and English? What else do you speak? #goals
Hahaa nick is fluent in Italian and mathilde speaks a bit Arabic
I am curious why your number plates don’t have a department code
That is no longer a requirement. I believe they made it optional because some regional codes were subject to “attacks/degradation “ when leaving their cars in other regions ( Paris /Marseille for instance hahahah). We had one but we decided to just leave france for the world tour
No es una empanada jamaicana, es un enyucado costarricenses y no es del caribe sino del valle central.
As a Jamaican, I can tell you that, that's not a Jamaican patty.
The first one was an 'enyucado' casava dough filled with minced meat. The second one they were eating was the patty
I hope you are plant based if you care about animals and the environment.
