Jared Six's Comments

Thank you so much!

1. Did you have to get a special visa to stay the year?

2. I'm planning a 2 week trip sometime this year. I want to see a few of the volcanoes and go to Puntarenas as well. Do you have any spots to recommend?

3. That farm you stay on - is it the type of place where you can board for a bit if you pay a daily fee?

4. Is fruit really as readily available as it seems?

5. How much money would I need in order to stay in CR for 6 months? What are expenses like?

6. What are a couple things you've learned since you've been there?

7. What's your area like? Mountains?

I'm aiming to one day move there, so these things would be good to know :)

Thanks a lot Jared,Have a great trip:)

Thanks for the friendship Jared & thanks for all of the inspiration!  

Me too jared,

looking at your pics you seems to be a good example how positive a raw vegan diet can be for people.I think your presence can influence a lot of people in the good direction!Thank you also for your message, Yves

I hope you have a fine time in costa-rica,do you know that sugercanejuice is the best powerfull juice It is known as a horse powerfull drunk within the country!because it's amount of minerals,most of all when it is fresh and organic so as you can have on the place ;aniway raw vegan seems to make from you a very strong man already!

maybe we'll see each other in december,

Yves

YOUR 6 STEPS SITE "RAWKS" MAN, CONGRATS & THANKS (dude ; )

Hey man, I just saw that you live in Columbus, OH.  I went to school at Capital.  Last year I played music at Hidden Lakes Winery (Canal Winchester) on Saturday nights.  I don't play up that way much anymore though.  I live in Dayton now. 

wow! i'm really impressed by your muscle building! I hope I can do that :) 

BTW:  Your before/after photos are incredible and spectacular.  You look so darn healthy now.  Congrats on your success. 

Thanks again Jared. Your explanation is very much what I imagined. Very true indeed! Keep up the good work!

Hey Jared! thank very much for your reply! A four day split, I understand. Can I ask are you very particular about the number of calories you eat or do you just eat until satiated. Also how many exercise per body part and do you have a preferred number of reps x sets or just go by feel/experience?

thanks so much for your reply it really made my day! 

Hey Jared thanks for adding me to 30bad, and thanks for the comment. I'm grateful I am where I am right now. I looked at some of your before pictures it looks like you were about as skinny as I am now. So its definitely motivating to see what you have achieved on HCRV. Ya, I'm primarily doing it for health and moral reasons but I wouldn't mind getting bigger that is for sure. And so far this community seems great. Bunch of intelligent open minded people its amazing to find.

Peace

Thank you :) I have to say I have just been browsing through the forum for the best part of yesterday and this is a great community. Way better than any of the sites i had used before when i tried going raw :)

Thank you Jared!

It is so nice to be part of a community of people who has chosen the same life style as me.

Thank you Jared!
I dont know any vegans or any raw foodists from here so.. yeah I need help! lolol :)

Great! Yeah, I'm currently living with my mom(though not much longer) and in the same town as my family.  Since I hadn't seen most of them for 2 years I was excited to be around and get to know them better but all they do is watch TV and go out to the most disgusting un-veg friendly restaurants ever and talk about celebrity gossip!  I tried to be nice and just accept it, but it ends up being a horrible experience for me.  I have told my mom recently that I don't actually like eating out... I just need to be more honest and courageous.  Thanks for sharing your experience.

Hi, I read a post of yours saying that you demanded your friends & family spend quality time with you without the distractions of TV, etc.  I am really, really curious as to the response you got, how's that working for you???

Hey Jared, ya its definitely different for me to connect with people I don't know through the internet...but why not? I don't have any veg friends in real life(other than my family)...Ohio is all about the meat. I work at an Applebees so I'm surrounded by it all the time. (I'm working on finding a better animal friendly job) I just started the hcrv thing about a month ago and I love it. Everyone thinks I'm weird at work because I bring soo much fruit with me. I'm actually trying to get out of Ohio and move back down south because I miss the sunshine so much. When its cold I will find any excuse to stay inside haha

Thank you so much Jared! I appreciate your lovely, kind, supportive comments so much...more than words can say :) I am so grateful to have so many wonderful friends here on 30bad. It means the world to me :) Have a great day and thank you again, Esperanza xxx
