Mountain-Ringed Andorra In The Heart Of The Pyrenees - Mountain-Ringed
Andorra In The Heart Of The Pyrenees - ...you may come to escape
taxation, but you’ll stay to enjoy the dramatically beautiful landscapes
and remarkably hospitable people. "High on most foreigners’ lists of reasons
for living in Andorra is the total absence of serious taxes. No income,
no capital gains, no inheritance taxes. Not even a sales or value-added
tax." by Peter Dunkley From The Best of International Living Magazine - |
.Do
You Have What It Takes to Live and Work Abroad? - How
To Know If You Can Live And Work Abroad ~ By Celeste Heiter -
One of the most asked questions that I receive at Escape From America Magazine
is whether or not I think that anyone can live abroad. And the answer to
that question is it depends on what you are expecting from your new home.
You need to know how much you will miss the things that give you comfort
in your present home and how strong you think you will react to an alien
land. I always tell people they will know whether or not they can live
in their new home after eight months. The above article will help you make
the initial decision to move.
Being In Baja - Baja
California Sur - The East Cape-Vinorama ~ By Joan Hafenecker - You
might want to think about retiring to Vinorama, Mexico. The beaches are
beautiful, there are whales at sea and the dollar goes a long way. If you
are interested in developing land for building then Vinorama may be the
place for you in Mexico.

Buying Property in the Philippines & Japan - The
Steps To Buying Real Estate ~ By Ahmad Tijani/Asigo Chi - Buying real
estate in Japan or the Philippines might be easier than you thought. And
the prices of properties might also attract you to the region. The Philippines
has countless islands to choose from and Japan has a secure legal system,
good social welfare system and many possibilities for foreign residents
to own land. |

The Science of Telephoning - From Anywhere to Everywhere - Looking
At Expatriate Telephone Science - Having Your Own USA Telephone Number
That Reaches You Anywhere In The World For Pennies - You also
get Call Waiting, Caller ID, Voice Mail, 3-Way Calling, & Call Forwarding.
These perks allow a wide range of options that may not be readily apparent.
If you want a toll free USA number worldwide (800, 888, 877 and the newly
issued 866 prefix,) then what you do is get a toll free number that defaults
(call forwards) into your Vonage telephone line. What you've created
is a USA toll free number for clients and friends that reaches you worldwide.
Which is to say that you can run a business from Bangkok with a toll free
number inside the USA that transfers your client calls overseas at no cost
to them and a cost to you of only $40 a month. Talk about being wired. |

Deep
In Veraguas - Traveling
Down Backroads In Panama ~ By Matthew Atlee - Traveling down
the backroads of Panama is like going back in time. Panama may be one of
the least known countries in the world and that anonymity has allowed Panama
to guard its treasures well. Some of those treasures are located deep in
the province of Veraguas. Waterfalls, lost highways and hot springs are
some of the things you will find as you get lost in the depths of Veraguas.
Mekong Fish And Bordeaux - Thanksgiving
In Laos ~ By Jared Simmons - The Mekong River is the 12th largest
in the world. The River originates in China and flows through Myanmar (Burma),
Thailand, Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam. What would it be like to travel down
the Mekong? In Laos there is still strong French influence but this influence
is mixed with Buddhist monks in yellow robes holding red umbrellas. There
is also great food and a friendly atmosphere. And behind it all the great
River flows by.
Non Stop Erotic Bingo -
Out And About In Sao Paulo ~ By Philip Blazdell - Sao Paulo is an enormous
city and you can do just about anything at anytime in Sao Paulo. But the
problem in Sao Paulo is always whether or not you will be able to arrive
to the place you want to be: the traffic jams are truly nightmarish. And
if you are in the middle of a nightmarish traffic jam, then you might take
a quick turn and end up anywhere. But that's the fun of Brazil.
Road Trip: From North Carolina to Nicaragua - Mexico
and Central America ~ By Erinn Magee - There are many people who say
they want to drive through Mexico to Central America, but few people ever
make the trip. If you've talked about doing it, but never have, then this
is your chance to read about what you have been missing out on. Police,
driving habits, hotel billing and road condtions are important things to
know on this journey south.

Thanksgiving In Laos ~ By Jared Simmons..
Somewhere Down There... - Passing
Time In The Kingdom Of Qatar ~ By Ulrike Lemmin-WoolFrey
- Qatar is a country that has achieved much since its independence in 1971.
The country is a well-ordered city-state that has assimilated very well
its large immigrant population. And it is a place that was once famous
for its pearls. The pearls have been replaced by oil, but the beauty of
the desert, the modern services of its capital and the abundant markets,
make it a nice place to pass time.
Foreign Assignment: What About Taxes - Taxes
On Overseas Jobs ~ By Steven Kang - Are you worried about whether
or not you will need to pay both foreign taxes and taxes in your native
country? Steven Kang gives U.S. expatriates some ideas about how to save
money by counting your foreign taxes on your U.S. tax return. This could
save you money and allow you to travel around and see more of your new
home.
Summer in Siberia - On
The Shores Of Lake Baikal And Siberian Wildflowers ~ By Rowena Hilton
- Lake Baikal holds over 20% of the fresh water in the world. It is also
home to some very rare species of fish and mammals, the most famous being
the only fresh water seals in the world. It is said that when water enters
the Lake it won't exit until 400 years have passed. And some say the water
in the Lake has healing qualities, even emotional healing qualities. Might
be a nice place to pass a summer in.
Traveling And Teaching On The Mediterranean - Mallorca,
Sardinia and Rhodes ~ By Ron Jenkins - Traveling and teaching on the
Mediterranean sounds like something from the Ancient world. That distinctive
Mediterranean blue water mixed with rejuvenating Mediterranean air. It
makes me think of a Chirico painting or a glass of retsina with a small
plate of olive oil, tomato and feta.

Offshore & High Risk Merchant Accounts - Merchant Processors, How,
What and Why ~ Offshore
& High Risk Merchant Accounts ~ By Curtis Taylor - The long
and the short of this issue is this. With all the new edicts from
the major credit card companies, and the various positions being taken
by different governments, it is necessary to adapt to the changing internet
rules and find a processor who can work for you. They should be a full
service shop; a company that wants to maintain long-term relationships
with its customers and offer multiple services. They will offer payment
solutions, offshore legal assistance, management services, financial services,
and investment opportunities. |
Your Beach Business Under the Sun - Body
Painting In Bahia ~ By Richard Abel - Bahia, Brazil means beaches during
the day, parties at night and surfing in the morning. Some people come
and never leave. One of the ways that people have stayed on the beach is
with a new tanning oil product from Brazil that can be sprayed directly
onto the body. Spraying bodies on the beach with tanning oil could lead
to something interesting. Check this out.

traveling in one of the four corners of the world? Running a hamburger
stand in Tegucigalpa? Tell like-minded people about it! We
can assure you that our readers want to know about what you're doing!
We want articles from anyone living an usual lifestyle. What we're looking
for are ideas, not Pulitzer Prize writers. Ideas are what fuel our magazine,
and our website. You don't have to be a professional writer to submit an
article - especially if you've walked the walk. Send us your article ideas,
we are very interested in hearing from you. We are currently seeking
articles on living overseas, adventure and discovery travel, jobs overseas,
those who've started overseas businesses, worked overseas as a telecommuter,
internet businesses, and articles on the subject of offshore investing.
We are also seeking articles by those who have invested offshore who will
share their experiences, both positive and negative. Anonymous bylines
are okay. We are seeking articles from those who have been successful
at starting and running businesses abroad or on-line from overseas locations.
We're continually looking for articles on overseas living lifestyles -
let us hear from you. - Click
