La Caravan. Beach front Argosy living

There is something very special and adventurous about stay in vintage Airstream Argosy from 1967. Even thought she is stationary, it feel like being drifted away at any moment for an unforgettable traveler's experience. A cozy, creative, minimalistic camper can be the perfect choice included in your trip in Costa Rica.
