International Telephone Search Engine -
International
Telephone Search Engine - Our new engine is one of a kind. It is based
on placing international calls rom international locations, not just from
the United States as most telephone search engines are programed to so.
It gives you the calling code instructions for each of the worlds nations.
In addition this engine allows you to search every on-line telephone directory
in the world. (Over 700 directories) Plus it gives you an instant
link to all of the embassies of the nation you are calling, and a link
to that countries voltage for those who are planning on traveling or relocating
to that nation. We designed this engine with expatriates and international
travelers in mind. |

Articles: How To Make Money Overseas As A Writer -Expat
Writers Course - You want to live overseas. You want to live
free. You want to be your own boss and keep your own hours. The question
is how do you make a living. The first answer that comes to mind is writing.
At least that is the first answer that came to my mind. Writing is a good
way to make a living overseas; travel articles, newspaper stringers, stuff
for the folks back home. It takes practice to write, but it can be
learned, just as one learns to tie their shoes, or stand one leg.
It isn't an automatic process, but what is? Now there is an expat
writers course that can show you the basics... next you'll be living
in Paris and sitting in hip cafes... or maybe you'll be in Budapest
writing an ebook. Check it out. |

| Life In A Dominican Beach Town
~ An
American In The Dominican Republic ~ by Elizabeth Roebling - At
6 in the morning, I take my steaming cup of strong Dominican café
con leche out to the porch and survey the sea. I have another hour and
half before the local commuter traffic, on scooters, quads, pick-ups and
buses, starts the parade on the paved beach road in front of the house.
It is a wonderful quiet time, as I watch the sea. My awesome appreciation
for it is only matched by my daily amazement at the number of times that
the mosquitos have bitten me during the night. They are a different sort
than in the States, quietier, more laid back, dancing the bachante rather
than dive bombing and singing rather sweetly. It is hard to begrudge them
a few drops of blood. Feb/05 |

On Living In The Dominican Republic ~ by Elizabeth Roebling - “The
dollar goes higher and higher and the peso goes lower and lower. That is
why we don’t speak English and we don’t buy Chevrolet.” So sings Juan Luis
Guerra, the premier musician of the Dominican Republic. He attended music
school in Boston and so, presumably, could sing in English if he wished.
I, for one, wish he would for it would do us good to hear what others are
saying about us. Jul/05 |

From An American In The Dominican Republic
~ by Elizabeth Roebling - It is the very people who are led to escape America
who may in fact be exporting the best of it. Those who are discontent and
yet hopeful are always the immigrants, the adventurers, and the colonists.
Those with no hope just lie down on the couch and flip the remote. The
lyrics from one Paul Simon song roll around in my brain: “the thought that
life could be better, is woven indelibly into our hearts and brains.” If
you have come to these pages, you have that hope. Examine what is it, really,
that lures and drives you. Mar/05 |

Mid-Life Question can Lead You to a Spicestyle Life Change - Moving to
Grenada, the Spice Island - Perhaps it happens to you when
you are on your way to or from work. A little voice in your head asks...
"What am I doing here?!?!?" You are standing in a crowded subway as that
fellow squeezed in next to you starts another coughing fit, or as you wait
at the bus stop with freezing wind chilling you to the bone. Or when you
are sitting in traffic backed up for miles during the first snowfall of
the season... |
Real
Estate Investment In Dominica - The "Nature" Island Of The Caribbean
- The main attractions?... its untamed,
unspoiled tropical countryside, the Dominican people's natural pride and
understanding of environmental stewardship and the chance to be a part
of that heritage. Why now? ....formerly it has not been easy to make a
living in Dominica, but things are now changing. Improved infrastructure
and communications, a stable government and support from external organizations
are contributing to making the country attractive to outside investment.
For example, a new 10 million dollar US harbour, is being built in Marigot,
on a Japanese grant. This will provide shelter and a centre for fisherman,
and a deepwater dock, which amongst other benefits, will allow the big
French ferries which run between Martinique and Guadelope, to stop on the
eastern side of Dominica. This substantial increase in the movement of
goods and people between the Carib Territory, and larger towns on the eastern
coast such as Castle Bruce, Wesley and Marigot and the big industrialised
French islands will have a large impact. ~

Estate In St. Kitts - After Sugar – New Opportunities In St. Kitts
- In
order to encourage investment, especially with the closing of the sugar
industry, Corporate Tax Holidays are offered to potential investors and
are often negotiated most successfully through local partners. Under the
Fiscal Incentives Act, four types of enterprise qualify for a tax holiday,
including no corporate tax for fifteen years. The length of the tax holiday
depends on the amount of value added by the business to St. Kitts and Nevis. |
