Decision

10 years ago

Hi Everybody,
I always knew I will move one day from Germany. I checked out Brasil, Africa and other Caribbean Countries and finally now I find my destination: Jamaica.

I'm 44 but doesn't feel like one ;-), no kids no husband, a lots of energy and hope it's never too late for a new start. I wants to move alone, on my own. I am a graphic designer with good skills and work since longer in eCommerce businnes, having good experiences in the gastronomy as well. Currently having a good job in Germany. I guess and hope, it's not going to be too hard to find a job or start a business. Where there's a will there's a way.
I moved 20 years ago from a small poor European country to Germany and made up my life here from scratch. So i think i am having a good life experiance to do it well?

Now i'll start to put my money together, collect information, try to come over for longer then few weeks and collect more information, and lets hope, time is gonna be ready in few years :-)

Now it's about to decide which part of Jamaica should it be? Maybe anybody can tell me some pros and cons MoBay vs Kingston area?

Thanks for the useful postings here, and I will keep you posted.

PS. I also have to work on my english, sorry for that ;-)
