Salsa guacamole
November 22, 2025by: Emil Grabol-Undersrud - NorwayProgram: Country Jumper Gap Year - Costa Rica | Guatemala | PeruI had a really fun time! There is a lot to do in Costa Rica and the free opportunities that maximo nivel have is a really good way to socialise. The workers here take really good care of us and the always meet us with a smile and good attitude. That’s the best thing about maximo novel! Good people with energy!!! At work I learned a lot and got to practise health care closer than before. The overall experience gave me new perspectives about how health care is outside Norway, and the equipment and facilities we have there should not be taken for granted.
Fun in Quepos!

I just love it here. Also if you want to come here, be sure that you do the surfing classes for a week!! It was the best
An experience of a lifetime!
November 16, 2024by: Allie Gladen - United StatesProgram: Country Jumper Gap Year - Costa Rica | Guatemala | PeruMy time in Costa Rica with Maximo Nivel was definitely one that I will cherish and hold near and dear to my heart for forever. There were so many amazing people to meet and so many amazing experiences to be had. My host mom, Marisol was an amazing host and made us all feel very comfortable and happy, all while keeping a fun and lighthearted atmosphere in the house. The campus in Quepos, Costa Rica is very comfortable and well made and I enjoyed spending time there as well!
