| Panama: Decided to Move? Here Is What You Need To Know - You are in a foreign country! You are a guest here! Their laws are not stupid or odd…they are just different. Think of the difficulties of moving here as just a game. Their game! Their rules. If you want to play it will be much easier if you play by their rules and not try to impress some governmental official or quasi-governmental person with your outstanding knowledge about the way things should be, or the way things are in the States. |

| From Skegness to Buenos Aires - Bright and early next morning Vero and her family picked me up and we were off. That drive still is a fantastic memory for me and believe me I have had a few - as the song goes! Walking around the Kremlin was one of them, when I saw the Grand Canyon for the first time another or when I walked in the African Tundra yet another. This drive in the pampas was right up there. As we drove out of the capital it didn’t take long before we were suddenly in the famous grasslands of the Argentine pampas. |

| Costa Rica: Resort Raising Funds for Reforestation - A good reforestation plan includes ways for the new forest to support itself. For example, two trees are growing side by side, but in nature only one of those trees will reach old age, the other less dominate one will eventually be crowded out by the larger tree, the smaller tree can be harvested and the wood used to provide funding for the farm up keep, and further reforestation projects. Another tree is planted in its place. |

| Choosing the Right Mexican Town -If you are moving for legal and more or less legitimate reasons, to do so on a whim or impulse can be the quickest way to heartache and despair. You will soon be finding your way back from whence you came. Impulsivity, while it has actually worked for a few, does not do so for the majority. You’ve got to do your homework. You’ve got to ask every question. You’ve got to read everything you can get your hands on, especially those books which spell out not only the pluses about living in Mexico but also the hard stuff—the minuses. |

| Health Insurance: Dubai - Despite the way that the United Arab Emirates have forced themselves onto the international stage, one of the key issues that many UAE expatriates are unaware of when choosing to relocate to the country is the state of the nation’s health care system. Dubai boasts some of the finest hospitals and medical facilities in the world. |

| Korean Taekkyon: Tradition Martial Art Dance Form - The art is Taekkyon, an ancient Korean martial art which combines dance with kicks and throws. The purpose of the match is not to injure your opponent, but instead, to throw him off balance. During the Japanese occupation, 1910 – 1945, the art was banned and nearly died out. Fortunately one very old master, named Song Duk-Ki, survived. He is personally credited with having saved the art, continuing to teach students, until his death, at age 96, in 1987. |

| Spiritually Crippled - Last Sunday I celebrated my fourth wedding anniversary, and by a twist of fate, my wife Mem celebrated hers on the same day. To mark the occasion I invited myself to enjoy a cigarette and a beer in my hammock on the porch; Mem invited nine monks and everybody we know to come drink Chinese tea out of jelly glasses and chant the dharma in our living room. There’s a word in Thai for people like Mem. My wife is “wer”, or “too much”. |

|
| Canada to Costa Rica: One Couple's Fresh Start - Greg and Jan chose Costa Rica because it's an easy flight from Toronto, so family and friends can readily come to visit. They like it that Costa Rica is politically stable with a long established democracy and no army - which allows more spending on things like universal medical care and free and subsidized educational programs. The magnificent weather was a factor, too. |

|
| Brazil: Migrating To Marvelous Maricá - I consider life as a borrowed privilege. So at the age of 56 I opted to go on early retirement and make the most of what the rest of that privilege has to offer. Thirty years of working in the mining industry, starting from the Philippines where I am originally from, followed by a 2-year stint in Zambia, another 2 years in Quebec and finally in a uranium mine in northern Saskatchewan, Canada has paved the way for this exciting new life. |

| Margarita: Dental Help - Little did I know when I ventured out on my 5 months winter hide-away retreat (2005/’06) to Isla de Margarita, Venezuela, (thanks to EscapeArtist.com!) that I would spend several hours in the dentist’s chair. Fortunately, it didn’t turn out to be that painful, especially to my U$ wallet. Let me share this experience with you. |

| New trends in Panama Real Estate - The flow of personal wealth into Panama is astounding; contrary to the rabid institutionalization of many North Americans, there are many, many, many wealthy Latin Americans. Years ago, the place for wealthy Latinos was Miami; today, due to a variety of geopolitical reasons that are beyond the scope of this article, that migration has shifted to Panama. |

| Think You Have Nothing to Hide? - These days, it’s impossible to keep your wealth a secret from the U.S. government. At least – it’s impossible to do so legally. But that’s no reason to abandon the idea of financial privacy. Even if you have absolutely nothing to hide, you should still keep your wealth as private as possible for your own asset protection. |

| Singapore: The Anti-India - Singapore only has 2 seasons: hot, and hot and rainy. Unlike Indians, though, the largely Chinese population does not suffer from temporary insanity at the sight of bare ankles. So, women are able to wear skirts without creating an international incident. However, hem lengths are the only thing that isn’t regulated. Singapore may be a “parliamentary republic,” but there are plainclothes police galore, and residents say the media has little autonomy. |

| Moenjodaro: A Tourist's Paradise - If you are a lover of archaeology and fond of visiting archaeological sites, then Moenjodaro is a place you should go to. It’s one of the most spectacular and developed urban civilizations of the world that flourished from the third to the middle of the second millennium B.C. This civilization is 5000 years old and is located in Pakistan on the west bank of the River Indus. |

| Japan: Niijima Island - Early next morning, we woke up to find ourselves on the shore of Niijima. And indeed, it was a sight to behold. Gentle, tree covered rolling hills were surrounded by a light mist, but the sun shone high in the sky, and beautiful sandy beaches and crystal blue water awaited us. We had booked a room at a delightful little family run inn with owners so hospitable and friendly we wondered if we were on a different planet. |

 Escape
Artist Travel Magazine - Online January 2007 ~ The travel magazine
with a point of view; a world-view. EscapeArtist Travel Magazine is about
more than travel; it is about personal exploration through world travel.
EscapeArtist Travel is for the independent traveler passionately seeking
an interactive cultural experience, meeting local people, examining cultural
conditions and exploring unknown lands. A Travel Magazine with an attitude
- Yes; our travel magazine has an attitude, slighty iconoclastic, defintely
cutting edge, and willing to take risks, both in attitude and in content.
We're going to tell you a host of valuable travel tricks - - as self-aware
independent travelers we've learned how to travel where we want and how
we want, totally free from meaningless and unnecessary constraints - -
constraints that may serve the interests of politicians, snoops, and purloiners
with vested interests, but which do nothing to serve your personal, intellectual,
financial and psychological best interest. When we travel, and we travel
often, we travel using methods not written about in the Sunday travel section
of your local newspaper. It's not some sort of super secret insiders information
we're talking about; and it certainly isn't illegal; it is just the type
of information that doesn't serve the interests of those who want to control
your life, so it hasn't been widely disseminated. |

 All You Ever Wanted To Know About Buying A Castle By Helga van Horn - I once said that most people will do almost anything to read about buying a castle, because it's such a fascinating subject; but few of them will ever really go out and buy a castle. Well I wrote that before the Berlin wall fell and the sudden surprise appearance of numerous magnificent castles in Eastern Europe. Suddenly we were seeing castles worth buying at prices we could afford. Then came the expat revolution, (diaspora?) and thousands of people starting moving overseas; and what better house could we ask for beyond a castle? That's the top of the line in housing. ...and think of the business you could run out of a castle; Bed & Breakfast, Resort Hotel, Restaurant, Spa, Condiminium Project, Joint Ownership, Time Share . . . you can use your own imagination to figure out dozens of use concepts, because the greatest part of buying a castle is the dreaming. . . . and there's money to be made with castle ownership . . . People have always traveled to distant parts of the world to see great buildings or other works of art, to learn new languages, to experience new cultures, or to taste new cuisine. As long ago as the time of the Roman Republic places such as Baiae were popular coastal resorts for the rich. Castles are a natural draw; always have been, always will be. They aren't building any more 300 year old castles - supplies are limited.
Last year tourism generated USD$ 5,490.4 billion dollars of economic activity and it is set to generate even more in the coming years. It is perhaps the major industry that anyone can enter - - with no limits to its growth. If you get a castle - and if you buy it as a result of seeing it advertised on EscapeArtist.com or as a result of reading this eBook report on buying castles, and if you're willing to put a statement on your website stating as much; then EscapeArtist.com will give you free advertising for your castle-run business.
Also, keep in mind that if nothing else, traveling through Europe looking for a castle would make an ideal vacation... |
