Vegan Adventure by Team VPA athlete Deepthi Prasanna

When I saw Vegan Adventure Holidays call for a group of trailblazer vegan women to be the first to do a Coast to Coast ( El Camino ) in Costa Rica I jumped at it. Honestly I fully didn't know what I was getting into. I just knew it was 260Km+ and lots of hills.  The hike was to start in the Caribbean Coast, go over several ranges of mountains and then end in the Pacific coast. 
I reached Costa Rica and we were set to do the 260Km+ in 10 days. We had long days of hiking. It was hot, humid and at the end of 10 days we climbed almost as much as the elevation of Mount Everest but the hike itself was so beautiful. We hiked through Coffee farms , sugarcane fields, muddy and slippery trails, little streams, big streams, waterfalls, forests and lots of little villages. This hike is a must do for someone that wants a challenge. We ate delicious plants and stayed in lodges and camped outside for a couple of days.
I had a lot of time to reflect on those long hiking days and came back a changed person. I also ended up meeting 9 other vegan women and sure enough we all went home knowing we had created some good friendships!
