I wanted to give a big shoutout to Zack and Anna from StartAboard! 🎉 We met them through the "Move to Portugal Summit", and let me tell you, they were a game-changer. Their expertise on the Visa process was invaluable, and they made what seemed like a daunting task quite manageable. At first, the idea of someone helping us find an apartment without really knowing us felt a bit unusual. But Zack and Anna proved us wrong. Working with Zack and Anna was a breeze. Thanks for making our move to Portugal a smooth operation, StartAboard! We are Truly Grateful. Dawn & Ralph Shaffer

StartAbroad saved me so much time, stress and headaches!! I absolutely recommend their work, they completely supported me from step A to step Z with my visa process and I honestly don’t think I would’ve been able to get through this complicated and extensive process without them! Thank you so much startAbroad team! Special shoutout to Mr Zach , he was always responsive to my nervous questions and for that I am deeply grateful!

I don't know how we would have been able to settle into our Pura Vida as well as we did without Zach, Anna, and the Start Abroad team. We can't recommend them enough. When we first came up with the dream of relocating our whole family, including 2 kids under 4, it was just that a dream. We knew Costa Rica was the destination, but that was about it. Zach and Anna helped coach us through all we needed in order to find a town, community, apartment, school, car, and more. They made sure someone was there at the airport(s) to pick up us and our mountains of luggage. They were a WhatsApp away when we had random questions and concerns. Thank you Zach and Anna for making this dream a reality. We

My wife and I recently worked with Startabroad in our search for a retirement home in Costa Rica. Zach and Anna were professionals in every way. They determined our needs/wants and catered an itinerary for us to spend fifteen days exploring the country. We could not have been more pleased with their service. Every aspect of the trip was perfectly coordinated. Startabroad made an otherwise difficult task a seamless journey. Zach and Anna answered all our questions, offered suggestions and expert advice, recommended locations and restaurants and even arranged our rental car with a discount. Further, they availed themselves to us throughout our journey by quickly responding to emails and messages. We would highly recommend them to anyone wanting to explore or move to Costa Rica. Beyond offering a top quality service, Zach and Anna are top quality people who are honest, open and easy to deal with.

I’m so glad Start Abroad exists! It made getting my digital nomad visa a breeze. Zach kept me well-informed every step of the way. He thoroughly answered any question I had. Plus, he followed up quickly so I was never in the dark about anything. I truly appreciate his professionalism — from taking care of all necessary translations, staying on top of all deadlines for submitting documentation, and putting together my application. Moving can be a challenge, so having a company like Start Abroad make the process easier meant there was one less thing to worry about. It gave me peace of mind and freed up my time to focus on other things.

Zach and his team at StartAbroad were absolutely fantastic. Im not one to normally write a review, but in this particular case I thought it was totally warranted. These guys saved our family so much time - it's quite difficult to quantify the value of their service. One thing for sure, for the small amount that they charged us for facilitating our digital nomad visas - in comparison to the huge amount of time we saved, is substantial! Very pleasant to work with, very professional, clearly they care very much about what they are doing and their work reflects this. Being able to work with a business that has such a strong, solution based work ethic, combined with a really pleasant and easy interaction makes for a great experience. Thanks again guys!

My wife Debbie and I connected with StartAbroad to help us with receiving our Costa Rica Digital Nomad visas. This involves a fairly complicated application and interviiew process, most of which is conducted in Spanish. Working with Zach and Anna has been a dream - they explained everything clearly and completely, assisted us in completing the applications and filed them on our behalves, gave clear indication of what the various steps and costs would be, and scheduled our final in-person interviews according to the availability dates we provided them. The entire process went very smoothly - even when there were a couple of small hiccups, Zach and Anna engaged the Immigration Department and made sure it all worked out. We've both successfully received our visas at this point - I can't thank StartAbroad enough, and recoommend them wholeheartedly! ~ Tony Valentino

Zach is the best! I'm very happy I got in touch with StartAbroad, and I appreciate their help, support, and guidance throughout the entire visa process. I would highly recommend working with them. Their communication is concise, clear, and frequent. They are always willing to help and clarify anything you are unsure about. Thanks so much! I look forward to working with you again!
