osta Rica, a tiny Central
American country with a
population of less than 2
million and an area the
size of the state of West Virginia
has become, in the last decade,
an "in" destination for all Amer-
ican travelers and, most particu-
larly, for American Jews.
The secular American Jewish
Congress (AJC) has been spon-
soring — and contin-
ues to — tours of
Costa Rica which
are almost in-
stant sellouts

'Well view all Costa Rica's nat-
ural wonders, not from the win-
dows of a bus, but by actual
exploration," the rabbi says. For
the past six years, he has been
taking people canoeing. fishing
and camping in the million-acre
national preserve which lies be-
tween Minnesota and Canada.
The program in Costa Rica is
similar — what Rabbi Kasowitz
calls a "Jewish adventure holi-
day" which maintains the most
stringent standards of kashrut
and affords men and women a
Jewish experience, "without com-
promising their standards of
Tzaps, in an exciting and exotic
natural environment that
is off the beat-
en track."

WE'RE FIGHTING FOR YOUR LIFE

are offered to
the public; and
now Chassidic
Rabbi Moishe
B. Kasowitz of
Eagen, Minn.,
has organized an
"Inward Bound
Costa Rica" tour of the country
which adds a spiritual dimension
to the travel experience.
He describes Inward Bound as
"a non-profit organization dedi-
cated to teaching and sharing the
joys of the great outdoors, with
the opportunity for the Jewish
adventurer of keeping a kosher
diet in a kosher atmosphere."
There are many reasons both
for the success of the AJC pro-
gram and for the rabbi's decision
to repeat the special kind of jour-
ney to Costa Rica which he initi-
ated a year ago.
The country abounds in nat-
ural wonders, Rabbi Kasowitz ex-
plains: wide, virtually
uninhabited beaches and islands
on its Atlantic and Pacific coasts;
lush valleys cultivated with cof-
fees, bananas, exotic tropical
fruits; volcanoes and high moun-
tains reaching into the clouds; ex-
tensive rain forests and national
parks which are sanctuaries for
several species of monkeys,
among other native animals; tou-
cans, macws and more varieties
of birds than in all the continent
of North America.

As important as
the meals prepared by
Jenkelowitz Caterers, a
major kosher firm in the
Midwest — often with
fresh-caught yellow-fma tuna on
the menu — are such other man-
ifestations of kashrut as the "spir-
itual nourishment" provided by
Rabbi Manis Friedman, who
serves as the mentor of the group.
Friedman is the dean of Beth
Hannah in Minneapolis and the
creator of the Torah Forum on
nationwide cable television.
• There are minyonim three
times a day throughout the trip,
with Torah reading Monday and
Thursday, but learning with Rab-
bi Friedman "happens at any
time, as he makes the entire jour-
ney a running Torah commen-
tary," says Rabbi Kasowitz.
Learning with Rabbi Fried-
man is informal; discussions may
develop at any point during a
day's program: a discussion on a
Torah passage, or singing, or sto-
rytelling, may take place after a
meal or after the activity of white-
water rafting or snorkelling or
hiking ... "accompanied by tropi-
cal birdsong and the crashing
surf on a coral reef," says Rabbi
Kasowitz.
"Friedman provides us world-
class learning and the cutting
