 Caretaking
~ How
To Live Overseas And Have The Place To Yourself ~ By Jeff And Karen
Hay - One way to move overseas would be to take care of somebody's exclusive
million dollar home. And there are a number of people who become caretakers
in places such as Costa Rica, New Zealand and Mexico. Taking care of the
house and living on a nice piece of real estate might be the answer to
your stationary blues.
Amazing
Short Hops From Panama City ~ Rest
And Relax Near The City ~ By Zvia Leibler - There is a lot to see near
Panama City. You can be in the jungle in 40 minutes and out on Contadora
Island in 20 minutes. Panama is one of the few countries in North or South
America that has not systematically killed off its indigenous population.
In fact U.S. astronauts used to train with the Kuna Indians out on the
San Blas islands in order to prepare themselves for space travel. And a
visit to an indigenous community in Panama might put you in a better space,
also.

Life
In Chile ~ Learning
The Fine Details Of Survival ~ By Jon Steele - This is a very fine
article about living in Chile. Get all the details about what you should
and should not do. Find out about how people spend their time and how they
socialize with one another. From Santiago you can go either to the mountains
and ski or to the coast and swim. Viña del Mar and Valparaíso
are beautiful towns on the coast: make sure you visit Pablo Neruda's house
in Valparaíso. Chile physically feels very much like California,
but without all - well you know. Six months in Chile and six months in
the States might be just the thing for someone who wants to get away from
it all part of the year. |

Make
Money Overseas - Writing eBooks For EscapeArtist.com -Write
eBooks for Profit - What we're looking for are ideas, not Pulitzer
Prize writers. Ideas are what fuel our magazine and our website.
Now we want to expand that concept into eBooks for expats. You don't
have to be a professional writer to submit a report that provides important
information - - information that you yourself have learned by having been
there
and done it. That is exactly what our readers are seeking, facts about
living overseas from people who've done it, facts about buying a barge
and sailing down the Danube, what it takes to migrate to Argentina, how
to open a business in Prague, buy an island in Belize, get a job in Paris,
start a farm in Mozambique, run an internet business out of the Dominican
Republic, run a rent-a-scooter shop in Mauritius.

Yacht
Broker Section Added To EscapeArtist.com - Read
about our new Yacht Broker section - We know there are a lot
of expats living on barges in Europe, and an even greater number living
on yachts in the Caribbean. It seems like a good idea to provide
a low cost way to put buyers and sellers in touch with other on an international
basis. It's in keeping with the thrust of our website; international lifestyles,
international living, unique lifestyles, living overseas. What could
be better than living on a barge in France? The only thing I can
think of is living on a yacht in the Caribbean. ...or how about Brazil?
...or Tahiti? If you don't want to live on your yacht, but just park it
in front of your house, we suggest you visit our new Caribbean Real Estate
website and buy yourself a waterfront house in the Netherland Antilles. |

Through
Bolivia ~ Riding
My Bike On The World's Most Dangerous Road ~ By Mark McMahon - There
are some great photos in this article. They show you what it might feel
like to bike down a dangerous road in the mountains of Bolivia. There is
also a lot of information about where to stay and how to join the kind
of bike tour described in the article. Bolivia is a country that has great
extremes: the browns of the altiplano and the green jungle on the Brazilian
and Paraguayan borders. The people have always been friendly to me and
that's important in a country where, depending on which city you're in,
your body may be acclimating itself to the pressures of altitude sickness.
Enjoy your time in Bolivia and stay away from the drop. |

Expat
Exclusion Eliminated ~ Expats
Must Pay U.S. And Foreign Taxes ~ By Steven Y.C. Kang - The exclusion
rule may be over for all expats with U.S. citizenship. If you are an expat
you may end up paying not only local taxes in the country you reside in,
but you might also have to pay Uncle Sam something. That could mean
two-thirds of your income will go to taxes. And where does all that tax
money go.
