Hello all
I have been considering a major life change and would like to look into the possibility of moving to the Caribbean.
I will start off by saying that I have spent the last month reviewing posts about all the pros and cons of living in the DR. I am not looking for someone to tell me that it will be hard and a different way of life, I am well aware of this and I am looking for a challenge. I currently live in Toronto, Canada, and work as an administrator for an investment firm. my goal is to be prepared to move in the next year to two as I would like to give myself plenty of time to prepare everything I will need.
I am 21 years old and I do not speak Spanish, however on Monday I am starting classes and plan to be modest- fluent by the time I make my move.
so here is the information I would like some help with.
can anyone direct me to somewhere I can find information about living accommodations in POP, also possible employment ( I do have the option to work for a telecom company down there however I would like to change my field)
I understand that it is hard work and long hours but I would like to possibly work as a housekeeper or at a resort, does anyone have insight on wage expectations.
also allot of the things I have read have highlighted security as an important aspect of your choice of apartment or house, what are your thoughts.
transportation- reliable?
my head is flooded with questions and I just really want to be prepared as much as possible for when I move out there.
any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
if there is any additional information you would like please ask or you can PM me
Thank You !!!!
