Who we are

We’re Maricruz and Robin — a Costa Rican–Swedish couple passionate about travel, connection, and living life the Pura Vida way.

Maricruz is originally from Costa Rica and has been living in Malmö since 2021. With deep local knowledge of Costa Rica’s most magical spots and a background in working with people and cultures, she brings heart and insight to every itinerary.

Robin is from Skåne, Sweden, and is already dreaming of making the move to Costa Rica by 2026. He will be your best guide for any adventure you want to try out 🏄‍♂️🧗‍♀️🏊‍♂️🚴🚣‍♀️

Together since 2022, we love spending time outdoors, discovering hidden gems, and meeting people from all over the world.

Pura Vida Vikings was born from our shared love of travel — and our desire to help others experience Costa Rica in a meaningful, relaxed, and personal way.

Whether you're traveling solo, planning your first trip to Central America, or dreaming of a longer stay, we’re here to guide you with local expertise and Scandinavian care.
