An Expat Talks about Living in What I can really suggest is to come and see if Belize is for you before you even consider making a permanent move. Decide where you want to live (on a caye, on a beach, inland, ie in the Cayo...) try to narrow it down to a few locations then come and stay for a month in each. Live like a local. See if Belize life is for you. Once or if you find that location that you really like, then go back for another month. Now you're going to be looking for that permanent location that you can call home. Don't be shy about talking to others, joining in with the expats etc and getting the benefit of their experience. Your monthly income will certainly give you a comfortable lifestyle here but that means nothing if you don't like where you are, don't like the people, don't like the lifestyle, miss your comforts of home etc etc etc. It can be, at the least, your amazing Belizean adventure as you move on to your next destination or it can help you narrow down where in Belize you really want to be. Have fun! , Belize

If a friend of yours was thinking of moving to this city or town from far away, what other advice would you give them.
