After many requests and diet questions, we created this What We Eat In A Day video to show you what a regular eating day for us is while living in Costa Rica. We love following a plant based diet as it allows us to eat an abundant amount of fresh and naturals foods that fuels us in every way but that doesn’t put any calorie restrictions.
