Intricacies
Of Working And Living In Paris - Click
Here - I came here the first time and got hooked. Once every few years
quickly turned into coming year after year, always staying in the same
hotel in the same neighborhood, dreaming about calling that neighborhood
home. Then, with some planning, my family and I sold our house, our cars,
packed up our furniture, shipped our belongings to Paris and moved into
a furnished apartment less than half the size of our California home with
no closet space and just enough money to last one year, or two with some
luck.
Opportunity
in Mozambique - Click
Here - I stayed mostly with an Afrikaner who had staked out 20 hectares
(50 acres) of beautiful beach about an hour out of town; his cost basis
is basically zero. The government gave it to him because he committed to
develop it for tourism; someday it's going to be worth what prime beach
front just outside a city is worth anywhere else in the world. He'll fill
his property with Germans and Swedes flying down to beat the European winter
while taking advantage of fresh lobster and fish that cost almost nothing.
And there aren't just hundreds, but thousands of miles of pristine deserted
beach on this country's coast.
Finding
a Little Piece of Paradise in Belize - Click
Here - In the late 1980's my husband Bill and I bought a used R.V.,
packed it with everything we felt we couldn't live without and moved
from our home in Hollywood California to Belize , Central America.
Living
and Working in Fiji - Click
Here - When I was reseaching an island to move to, Fiji kept popping
up in the top five for cost of living, quality of life and friendliness
of the people. But living in L.A. at the time, I knew I wanted a slower
pace. To be on island time.
Living
In New Zealand - Click
Here - New Zealand comes to the fore in countries you might want to
consider if you want to "Escape from America.” Not only is the country
beautiful in a physical sense but many of the problems being encountered
in the U.S. today are simply not present in New Zealand.
An
Interview with New Zealand Officials - Click
Here - We had the good fortune and privilege to speak with Consulate-General,
Jim Howell of New Zealand along with New Zealand’s Director to their North
American Investment Promotion Unit, Mr. Kelly Beeman, about migrating to
New Zealand. They shed a great deal of light on the subject of migration
as well as on New Zealand’s investment potential.
