“I was considering becoming a digital nomad but soon realized I had become attached to Costa Rica and switched to Rentista Status. After consultation with Legal Residency Costa Rica, I now have a legal status here and not a visa. I did not want to leave after 2 years which is the very maximum time a Nomad can stay here in my Costa Rica.”
