I'm new here so this is my introduction to the ATS family

Hey there people at ATS, my name is Eduardo, Edward on the phone when i'm at work where i'm currently writing this, i'm 24 years old and I have a dog called Sandoz that is my whole life. I live in Costa Rica a beautiful small country in Latin America where there is a lot of wildlife, always wondered if a country like this could be a place where weird "out of the common mind" things happen.

I have always been interested in the weird stuff, ranging from things like magic, spirituality, drugs and psychedelia, aliens, paranormal stuff, horror stuff, new age, different worlds, urban legends and so on, I think they give some spice to life, I strongly believe stranger things happen out there more than we give credit for and i'm a believer and I want to find the truth.

Right now I just got a job as an outbound sales agent, a great opportunity I was missing in life, i'm trying to save money to buy a modest car so I can start hunting around for weird stuff, i'm planning on going to mountains near and far form home so I can start looking for places, secrets, mysteries, maybe find some gnomes, we have a strong believe here in Costa Rica that there are gnomes that get people lost in the forest so I want to start from there, also saving some money for a telescope to start doing watch of the skies, I consider myself an UFO freak as I think everyone else here does so i'm totally hyped up about joining ATS.

I've been spending a lot of time reading the forums so now i'm here and I hope to meet new friends as well as meet people with the same interests and exchange thoughts and ideas and learn together. If there is anything anyone wants to know hit me up. Oh and my main dream is someday to see a real UFO somewhere up there lol. Bye guys.

Welcome!

I love Costa Rica. A couple of years ago I spent 2 months travelling around the country from Nicaragua to Panama, and it was one of my favorite countries to visit.

As for the "weird" in Cost Rica, I'm sure you've heard of the Spheres there:



They've definitely been featured here on ATS a number of times

Welcome to our little palace, Eduardo...


Enjoy your stay.

Speak to Ghost above me for a spiffy little avatar, he is a King amongst Kings when it comes to such wizardry.



Peace.

Hey there Ghost and Hazardous, thank you for the warm welcome.

Yes, Costa Rica is a magical place I love it here, I have been to Nicaragua as well, hot places tho, thing I dislike.
And yeah I have seen the spheres in person in a few museums where they were left, such a mysterious thing, i'll look the threads for them for sure, i'm already intrigued.
And I will hit you up soon for a cool avatar, yours is looking pretty neat.
Have a nice one guys

Ooooh! Costa Rica. Love the coffee from there!

Greetings aw13

Gnomes would be cool. The stone spheres are pretty cool. Ghost, my thought on those were that before the wheel with a few planks you could move a platform (or the sarsen stones) around pretty easily. Just an idea.

Enjoy the place! As a relative noob myself the ATS Freshman Forum is a place I usually point out (I reference the bbcode guide all the time) to make your post if not pretty at least readable! There are a bunch of great people in there willing to help you as well.

Hugs to your dog! And a "cheers" to you!

Welcome to ATS! Have you ever seen the "mysterious spheres" in Costa Rica? I don't know how common they are, or if they're only in one area (will have to read up again), but the guy I work with from Costa Rica had never even heard of them. I'd be interested in the lore/experience regarding them from a native Costa Rican (and whether there's anything beyond what the rest of the world speculates.)

EDIT: Ahh, I opened this tab earlier but didn't refresh before posting - it seems the spheres question has been asked and answered already! That makes you our official sphere investigator LOL.

Again, welcome!

Welcome to ATS. We are all jealous of the beautiful place you live!

Remember....seperate paragraphs when posting please! (Drives our eyes crazy!!!)

Eduardo - it's great to see another interested person joining the ranks of us whackos on ATS.

What a cool place to live, I understand it's one of the most bio-diverse places on the face of the planet. My girlfriend's sister actually lives in your country and sells Real Estate, she has nothing but good things to say about it.

Looking forward to seeing you on the forums friend

a reply to: dogstar23

Yeah I have actually seem them and touched them, there are a few at a museum in San Jose downtown they are pretty weird and people at the museum don't even know how to explain them they were just brought there.

But to be honest I have to do more research regarding them, the majority are located in Osa that is like 3 hours away form where I live but you are right i'm a official spheres investigator now haha I will try and do my homework and maybe make a thread about them in the future and from what I investigated.

And thank you for the warm welcome dogstar

Well, if you're ever interested in an avatar, head over to this topic. It's the official Avatar Creations thread.

You can request one from anyone or me directly

There are a ton of great people and information on these boards, and I hope you find those in spades during your membership at ATS.

Look forward to your future contributions, E!

Cheers,

Coffee here is pretty good, i'm totally a coffee freak but gives me anxiety so I have stopped drinking it sadly.

About the spheres as I told dogstar i'm gonna do my research and I will bring you guys news about it, they are pretty far from me but they are in a cool place so I will take a vacation and get there and ask the people around. Seems like a cool adventure

I will visit the Freshman Forum. and thanks for the hugs my dog will appreciate it.
