Costa Rica is a country between two tectonic plates: Cocos Plate and Caribbean Plate.

Earthquakes in Costa Rica are common as the flooding and the hurricanes.

I think is too sad, because many people died (almost fifteen). I have family in San Jose but all of them are good.

I think the epicenter of the earthquake was near the Poas Volcano, and I was at the Poas Volcano 1 day before the earthquake hit. I know a lot of people who live in Costa Rica, and some in the San Jose area, so I got really scared when I heard about this. I hope you are doing well.

Fortunately, Costa Rica has historically take measures to minimize the impact of quakes, has very strict building regulations. Having said that, its horrible when people dies
