    I’d like to know how to send or receive a letter or a small package in CR since there is no civic number on houses and no street name neither ??

    Hi Christian,

    The lack of addresses is a bit frustrating sometimes, especially when giving directions. Fortunately it’s no obstacle to receiving mail and packages. You have some options.

    1. Coordinate with the mailman/post office in your area and let him know who you are and where you live. Then you work out an address of some sort (200 meters south of the church in TOWN, for example). Then when letters come for you, he’ll bring it to your house.

    2. Probably the best way is to get a PO box at your local post office. All your mail will go there and you will go there to pick it up.

    3. There are also private services like Fedex and UPS, as well as local courier services like Jetbox and Aerocasillas for things you order online and want sent down.
