re: #144 Jadespring

So it’s amazing how a really sucky cold and snowy weather day that led to some wistful surfing of tropical (and warmer) locales has turned into what may be a life direction change. Yesterday I posted about looking at property in various Carribean countries and making a few discoveries about what it would take to actually make a move south. Mainly that it’s entirely feasible and not as crazy a dream idea as I thought it would be.

Today after several hours of surfing looking at nuts and bolts and a long conversation with the hubby, we’re giving it some serious thought. We figure that with some careful planning and some hard work we could feasibly think about doing it in four to five years! We also decided that we’re serious enough about the idea that we’re tentatively planning a winter holiday next year in Costa Rica to check things out and get an idea about the reality of it all.

I haven’t been this excited about the future in a heck of long time. I never thought I’d be able to even consider something like this!

I am deeply happy for your optimism and the liberating feeling that gives you.

Scientifically, it is a very bad idea to move to that region. In 20-30 years it will not be such a nice place to live.
