Why yes, I will dress up like a Maleku!

Costa Rica is known for its natural beauty but not for having much indigenous culture.  If you know me, you know that culture is what I love.  So...I was very happy that we were able to learn about one of the few remaining "tribes" of indigenous people left in Costa Rica, the Maleku.  Apparently they eat a lot of iguana and that makes them live a long time and makes the men very virile.  I was told that one of the Maleku is 79 and married with children to a 29 year old. Wow!  Click the link and you can hear how Maleku sounds.
