Hello APV readers First I’d like to share my apologies for the lack of posts and updates on A Pura Vida. Life has been really crazy busy and we are finally getting back into the groove of work, and enjoying our new place. I’ll be sharing updates on our digs, here shortly…nothing too impressive sadly […]
