Bri .... wrong thread. I think this was meant for the "reincarnation" thread! :cheeky:
By the time I was 29, I had lived in Japan, the Pacific Islands and Estonia, never arriving with much more than $500 to my name and a return ticket home. Once the travel bug gets you, it can become a lifestyle.
Resulution....
Many people have made the change with less. So what I now decide to do is save for a year and move. Simple as that. I plan to work, my area of employment is still to be determined.... But people all around the Dominican Republic live their lives happily, and so can I.

In life I see spunk getting people farther towards their goal. Thank you also. I cannot wait to have a party for all my new friends.
Btw, my best friend and business partner in Estonia came with not much more than I had from Britain. He's now a multi-millionaire(in dollars, not kroons) and one of the top ten richest people in the country. I really need to hit him up for a ticket there sometime. When we were working together, we were trying to scrape up $10,000 to make a small deal and ended up brokering a million pounds of sugar to chocolate factory. Those were some crazy times.
Wow, I read a whole post on DR1 where the OP wants to move here, with developing spanish skills, after only a short trip...and no one tore her apart. I am actually really impressed. Probably because she didn't mention buying a place. I say live your dreams. The worst that can happen is you'll fail. Just make sure you have enough real money to back you up. It really seems like a lot of business here fails because they can't float themselves long enough to get a good reputation. They are here and gone before anyone even realizes they are here. If you want to come to Punta Cana area, I'm always looking for an Aveda trained stylist. I have ombre and balyage ,and none of the hairdressers here do it or have heard of it. Thank god that hair needs minimal touch ups.
I hope you do, Stephanie!
The long bright summer nights will be the thing I'll miss most about Sweden, but only because I'll forget how annoying they are!
Keep in touch!

You display a rare combination of having realistic expectations and being optimistic. You are not afraid of hard work and are willing to delay gratification by working and saving for a year to have a better chance of it working in the end, and you have open eyes and EARS.
I think a person like you can succeed anywhere.
Welcome to the forum and good luck!

Regardless of being a newbie you run the chance of being torn apart. Just educate yourself and prepare yourself properly. Then you will be fine.

THANK YOU!!! I will for you also invite you to my party later on. I know it will be hard. But that is ok with me.
I have had short and long trips all over the world. I will be doing this, and later probably purchase a home. My parents keep trying to get me to do so here, but I don't want to be stuck here. In the Dominican Republic I'm happy to be stuck. Hard work and determination go a long way regardless of country and country of origin.
