Beautiful #Poas #Volcano #EndlessSummer
Looking down at the smoking crater of the active Poas volcano. Most of the time it's impossible to see it because of the clouds, but you can be lucky to see it early in the morning or around 2 pm to 3 pm during the day! #volcano #costaricaphoto #avtivevolcano #smoking #nature #travelingtheworld #thetwohobos #naturelovers #adventure #wonderful_places
