Pure Life Aspiro is a dynamic, therapeutic, transitional or gap experience for young adult males and females operating in the beautiful Pacific coast mountains, villages, rivers and beaches of Costa Rica. Young adults who have successfully completed a wilderness or adventure therapy program and needs some transitional assistance before moving into lower levels of care... or those who need a therapeutically focused, transformative experience, but don't require a crisis intervention, benefit tremendously from rich and awe inspiring therapeutic adventures, service work and cultural immersion experiences.
