What a beautiful spit on Earth. So glad our research was on the mark with this country, I have not yet been here 24 hours & I love the lack of development outside the cities, the friendly people, the slower pace to life & the feeling of going back in time to a life that was simpler .
Punta del este is a beautiful city & now I understand the interest in paying premium fees to rent places here during peak winter.
Flew into MVD, uneventful. My ticket was expensive as I bought in w/in a few days of the trip but with Priceline, I paid less than I would have paid for a less direct flight. Left Charlotte @ 8 pm w/a 1 1/2 hour stop in Miami & was in MVD by 10 AM.
Lovely day checking out houses & getting excited for the move at the end of June.
Things are getting more complicated for U.S. Citizens with opening a bank account. If you want details, pm me.
Thanks for all the feedback to date on my requests for help & for the well wishes!

Welcome! The longer you're here, the more you'll see the problems. But it's like I tell the locals when they ask me why I'm here. The problems here are annoying and can be fixed with time and money. The problems up there are dangerous and can't be fixed.
What never gets old for me are the clear blue skies.
