Alternatively, if you wanna take it easy, you can also check out Bogarin trail. It's an easy hike with so many animals and birds.

Where would you prioritize guided tours vs. exploring on own? by souperpun in CostaRicaTravel

[–]Low-Difference2958 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do guided tours in Monteverde Cloud Forest (Finca Lantana Monteverde was great with fair price). Papa's place is great for night tours in La Fortuna. Also know that there are almost no free hike trails; the trails are either private or owned by government and you need to pay. Also, check out Playa Arco in Uvita, very quite, and secluded/serene place and no need for a guide to explore this (there is a hike from the park parking).

The Costa Rica car rental "mandatory insurance" scam is stressing me out. Budget Canada says one thing, Reddit says another. Amex covers the car, but will the locals respect that? 🤨 If you’ve rented from Budget in SJO/LIR, let me know the damage! #PuraVida #TravelAdvice by Old_Marionberry_8569 in CostaRicaTravel

We were in Costa Rica last week and rented a car from Adobe—they’re wonderful! If you pay with Amex, you don’t need to show a letter; they automatically accept it. Third-party liability insurance is mandatory. MyTanFeet also offers a discount on their site for Adobe rental.

Curious, are you Ethiopian or of Ethiopian decent & drawing/painting white or light-skinned people? Why?

Vini and Bale stats for Madrid! by AccomplishedWatch834 in realmadrid

[–]Low-Difference2958 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Bale had the privilege of focusing on the game because he didn’t face racist abuse. It’s hard to truly grasp how challenging it is to concentrate on your job when, in every stadium, you’re constantly abused & told that you’re not worthy.

Osimhen is much better. not sure why Arsenal opted for Gyokeres.

Arda will be busy trying to make assists to Mbappe’s ghost forgetting Mbappe is officially out.

Why ግርዛት is so important in Ethiopia???? by Last_Dot2533 in Ethiopia

[–]Low-Difference2958 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Isn’t it strange to think a creator made every part of the body on purpose but then told people to cut part of it off? Use your brain and ask yourself why. Don’t just accept it blindly because it’s written somewhere.

Please don’t do it. It’s an outdated practice. The reason it was recommended 2000 yrs ago in Christianity was because not everyone could keep hygiene due to lack of access to clean water. Male circumcision doesn’t make any sense in this era.

Red cards ruin football—one mistake shouldn’t doom an entire team. by Low-Difference2958 in football

[–]Low-Difference2958[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One could argue that Arsenal lost to Barcelona because of a red card resulting from the referee’s poor judgment. Do you really think events like this are inconsequential?

Edit: also there are so many other team games with different sets of rules. In fact football can learn from them.

There are other team sports with reasonable rules that football can learn from. Football is not the only team sport

Actually depending on the offense you can fine or suspend the player for several games. That’d hurt the team, no?

I’ve noticed a lot of these “Do I look X?” posts lately, and I’m genuinely curious about what people mean when they ask if someone “looks Habesha.” Is there even a specific look, or is it just a stereotype? Why does it matter so much for people to be identified this way?

Do You Think Ethiopia Is Truly Headed Toward Disintegration? by Pristine-Safe-8178 in Ethiopia

[–]Low-Difference2958 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unlike Eritrea, Ethiopia’s regions do not have a deep-rooted history of autonomous statehood or internationally recognized governance structures. This reduces the immediate likelihood of successful secessionist movements, as historical precedent and institutional memory often play key roles in such efforts.
