Mind States 2007 in Costa Rica

Jon Hanna has released many more details about the upcoming 2007 Mind States conference in Costa Rica.

I am very pleased that he has chosen the beautiful Sueno Azul resort near Horquetas of Sarapiqui, on the north region of Costa Rica (in the province of Heredia, see this map), only one hour from downtown San Jose. The room rate is very low and the resort looks gorgeous.

Furthermore Jon has a great speaker roster as of today. Here are some of the speakers:


Alexander Shulgin ~ co-author of PIHKAL & TIHKAL
Ann Shulgin ~ co-author of PIHKAL & TIHKAL
Stanislav Grof ~ transpersonal psychologist

2006.01.04 Jon Hanna writes in Tribe:

"The Mind States Costa Rica conference will be held in Horquetas of Sarapiqui, on the north region of Costa Rica, about 1 hour and 15 minutes from downtown San Jose. Flying into San Jose and getting a bus to Horquetas is a good approach.

"As far as how much extra money to bring with you, this will vary depending on how many additional activities or travel you wanted to get done while in Costa Rica. If it is primarily just a couple of day trips, and maybe a zip-line canopy jaunt, plus any alcohol and lodgings for traveling on non-conference days, it seems to me like this could be covered very easily for under $500. If more extensive travel is in your plans, with more night's stays at hotels, it could go higher than that. A good way to plan out how much money you think that you might need is to purchase a Costa Rica guidebook (most such books provide a range of prices for various locals and activities). While Costa Rica is not as inexpensive as Jamaica or Mexico, deals can still be had and there are cheap, reasonable places to stay while traveling. Food and drinks are generally inexpensive as well.
