In love with Costa Rica

Jay Dickman, a United States photographer from the prestigious National Geographic and Pulitzer Prize winner in 1983, was recently in Costa Rica on a photo shoot with 12 students from the Tropico Humedo School (EARTH), in Guacimo, and six young people from Limon.

After asking him about what he thought of the country, he replied, "I love Costa Rica".

"I've been here five or six times, the first being in 1994 or 1995. I brought my family here about nine years ago".

Dickman started taking photos in high school and his first assignment for National Geographic, a magazine he has loved since he was young, was in 1979. He is 59 years old, has four children, and lives in Colorado, in the U.S.
