Hello Everyone

It has been four years since Urban Diversion opened the doors and we have grown in to the largest and most active social club in the bay area - sign up now .

A Report on the Costa Rica Adventure

The thousands of photos taken do not do it justice, and there are few words that can describe how amazing this trip was for everyone.  We had 15 members join us for one week of amazing adventures and fun.  In those short few days we experienced up close monkeys, sloths, dolphins, Eagle rays, horses, pristine jungles, amazing Mangroves, beautiful beaches, uninhabited tropical islands, great nightlife, and our own relaxing beautiful villa. While river cruises, horseback rides on the beach, ziplines through the jungle, Surfing and ATV tours are just a few things done.

More important than the things done and seen, was the experience gained and the long lasting friendships made.  Fifteen people that barely knew each other came back as a great family of friends with a common experience of a lifetime

Here are some great quotes about member's experiences and member photo albums:
"I am so grateful to you for introducing me to that great country. Much to my surprise I fell in love with the place. I am looking into relocating there (part-time) soon. I want to slow down and enjoy life a bit before life passes me by."

"Its crazy how fast you bond with people. I miss everyone. We were like a family. At times a bit dysfunctional but what family isn't."

 

"Our week in Costa Rica was a fantastic adventure!!  The group was diverse, yet we all bonded together for a ton of laughs, and exciting outdoor activities.  From flying through the trees on a zipline, to riding enthusiastic horses on the beach, to relaxing under the coconut trees (though not too close, right Tracy?) on a deserted island....I will cherish this trip and my newfound friends, for a long, long time!!!"

 

Trips coming up:
May - Grand Canyon
June – Yosemite
August – Mexico
November – Thailand

Next year - Return to Costa Rica, New Orleans, Chili/Argentina, Greece and Europe!
