Last update: 2 hours ago

Earthquake Watch: A magnitude 5.3 quake hit Costa Rica at 1:37 a.m. Aug. 24, followed by a 4.8 tremor two minutes later, with strong shaking reported across the Central Valley and no injuries or major damage reported. Local Culture & Youth Trends: “Aura farming” is turning into a real-life crowd spectacle in San José, with TikTok-style “aura battles” drawing attention for their playful, rule-light showmanship. Music & Community: Gustavo Dudamel wrapped up his final weekend as Los Angeles Philharmonic leader at the Hollywood Bowl, with a Venezuela-focused earthquake relief concert highlighting his long LA legacy. Costa Rica Spotlight (Travel/Media): Ivanka Trump shared surfing photos from Costa Rica in a skimpy black swimsuit, while Chris Hemsworth posted an action-packed family getaway featuring surfing, fishing, climbing, and cliff jumps. Banana Brand Story: A new look at “Banano de Costa Rica” explains how the GI and CORBANA helped turn quality and sustainability into measurable global sector value. Arts & Inclusion: The Down’s Syndrome Association named international photography finalists for “My Perspective,” with winners announced in September. Policy/Science: Costa Rica’s official time rules changed via a new decree, updating the scientific framework for the national time reference without shifting everyday clocks.
