Tattoo and Piercing - Who doesn't love art? Why not wear it?
AUTHOR: Miriam Margraf
Has it ever crossed your mind to get a tattoo or a piercing? These creative practices are ancestral. The earliest evidence of tattoo art dates from 5000 BC. It is an indelible mark fixed upon the body by inserting pigment under the skin. Across time and cultures, tattoos have had many different forms and meanings. In the old ages as a visual language of the skin, they affirmed your status, maturity, and beauty to your community. Tattoos can tell stories, symbolize specific important chapters in a person's life or even cover up scars. For a long time, they had a negative connotation in the Western world.

Lately, tattooing and piercing have become democratized in all countries and social backgrounds, considered a real form of individual expression, rather personal and intimate; an indelible record of the chapters of one's life - a moment, a story, a person. On the contrary, a claim to dispose of one's body and soul is a fun and spontaneous adventure.
Isn't Costa Rica's fetish slogan "Pura Vida" so famous and Costa Ballena an ideal destination to dare? To be creative, inspired, and inspiring, to forever remember your vacations, your country, your expatriation, this slice of life so happy and luminous that we are offered? Obviously!
