Hello,

I have been posting to the forums and sending PMs to people I believe can help my wife and I with our move to Belize, but this website is not exactly user friendly. I am getting used to the forum format, but still not a fan. On the other side is the PMs. I don't think I received a response from anyone, yet, but it is hard to tell. When I look in my PM folder it doesn't show WHO I sent it to, just who it is from (which is obviously me, so why do I need to know this?).

I am trying to connect with people who already live in Belize or those that are moving in the next year or so. My wife and I are late 40s, so, although we are going to be technically retired, we still want to stay busy. I own a drone photography/videography company and would enjoy continuing to fly when I get to Belize part time.

I look forward to connecting with people, I am just finding the format of this website to be a little cumbersome.

@legion6 What area in Belize you looking at? How far along are you on the housing search? Have you done your research or just starting?

Will be down there June 23 thru 28. Finishing our house in Cayo district. Been going there for the last 4 years. Been building for the last 1 1/2 years.

Guys found a parrot fledgling on the ground. All feathered now. Hopefully start to fly in the next two weeks.

@legion6. If this comes across twice. I had to resend. What area you going to? How far along on housing? How far along on your research?

We are finishing our house in a week. Coming down June 23 they 28. In the Cayo District. Been coming the last 4 years. Enjoying the learning curve. Our fruit trees and plants are starting to produce. Hopefully our pineapples are starting to ripen. Rainy season is coming so getting ready to plant more. Video droning should be great here.

And while we are at it:
ADMINS: Why does the email only give me the choice to "Post a Reply" and not "See this Thread"? If others have already answered, we can save time and confusion by seeing what they already said and not repeating it.
