Meet Paul & Beckham

The Adventure Pug

Beckham and I spent several months living and traveling in Costa Rica, entering the country by both air and land and navigating the SENASA arrival process ourselves.

From San José and the Central Valley to beach towns and smaller communities, we experienced the realities of transportation, veterinary care, tropical weather, and everyday life in Costa Rica with a dog.

Beckham is my travel buddy, professional patio inspector, and the reason Pawsport to Adventure exists.
