About The Author
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
     Author and friend, Brea, being
     daring and  adventurous, a la ATV! 
 
Since, Ashley has visited 6+ additional times, thinks ceviche is one of man's greatest creations, and still gets mildly frustrated that she cannot move her hips as well as the ticas.  (Although her guaro drinking skills are certainly up to par!)
 
In her spare time, she works as an ESL tutor at Penn State University, and also volunteers teaching English to adult language learners in the community. 
 
On a personal note, she enjoys travel (travel, travel & travel), red wine, books of all sorts, foreign language, jokes, and, of course, sarcasm. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Ashley Ambirge is currently pursuing a master's degree in TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) at West Chester University of Pennsylvania.  She holds two Bachelor of Arts degrees; one in Spanish and the other in Communication Studies, and has spent over a year living in Quepos & Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica, where she attended Academia de Espanol D'Amore, a Spanish immersion school, and became borderline obsessed with the country.
