    Expat Insurance Expert Phil Eitman on the Nosara Podcast

    Welcome to another episode of the Nosara Podcast, where Rich Burnam sits down with longtime Costa Rica insurance expert Phil Eitman!

    Phil has lived in Costa Rica for around 18 years and has spent more than 15 of those years helping people navigate insurance here.

    We start with Phil’s story of moving to Costa Rica, figuring out how to make a life here, and eventually getting into international health insurance after looking for coverage for his daughter.

    From there we get into the stuff people really need to know: international health insurance, the difference between public and private healthcare in Costa Rica, medical emergencies, air ambulances, home insurance, cars, roadside assistance, construction and commercial insurance, and even wills and estates.

    Of course we get sidetracked along the way talking about old Costa Rica, dusty roads, New Jersey, stand-up comedy, Coconut Harry’s, Nosara vs. Tamarindo, how much Nosara has changed, development, community, and why people who come here should find a way to chip in.

    If you live in Costa Rica, are thinking about moving here, or just want a better idea of how insurance and healthcare actually work here, I hope you enjoy this conversation with Insurance Phil.

    NOSARA PODCAST – Nosara Civic Association (NCA) Opens up about everything from Pelada evictions to the Nosara Corridor

    Thanks to Luis & Marco from Nosara Civic Association for coming onto the Nosara Podcast for a high season 2026 update. We cover all kinds of topics in this episode from the court decision about park lands in Nosara, the Pelada evictions & other Nosara Gossip Machine stuff to the Nosara Corridor & all kinds of other positives & everything in between. It’s a super candid conversation & I appreciate them for coming on camera.

    Nosara is a small, protective type of town & there are all kinds of opinions. I appreciate those who will come on camera and speak much more than the gossip minded or social media warriors who stir up controversy but are not solution oriented.

    Welcome to a very special episode of the Nosara Podcast with Matt & Joellen from El Chivo. In case you didn’t already know, El Chivo is kind of the ‘Cheers’ for Nosara… Reality is Matt & Joellen have been staples in Nosara’s community for over 2 decades.

    We’re going back in time to discuss their journey, operating several restaurants way back in day before making the big move to Pelada to create today’s El Chivo.

    After we reminisce about Nosara of the past we discuss pros & cons of today’s Nosara & their plan to invite the community to help secure El Chivo’s future.

    We celebrate the lives & memories of our friends who have passed away, plus all kinds of subjects from Nosara likes & dislikes, their 3 favorite restaurants besides their own, opinions about dogs on the beach & much much more.

    I hope you enjoy this walk down memory lane & glimpse into the future with Matt & Joellen.
