Seriously consider Jarabacoa. Small, beautiful, and somewhat safer than other cities. Write Bob Saunders about his wife's school there.
Hi Maria
I do have a friend whose child attends the Learning Centre in Cabarete, which is a cheaper school but as I understand from her still very good, if you wanted any more info about the school pm me and I can call my friend and ask her any questions you may have, I think there are quite a large proportion of Dominican children there. I have no idea what the Costa Brava brigade is but I have a nasty feeling that if I don't know what it is I may be one of them!!!
So, why to DR ??!!
Being a citizen of Spain you can move to Florida. There you will have a real quality of life, but much cheaper than in DR. You`ll speak castellano with numerous spanish communities.
...the cost of living in Florida is much higher than the cost of living in the DR (correct me, if I am wrong).
Just wondering how you came to the conclusion that Maria as a citizen of Spain could easily move to the US (she would not get a Green Card, would she?)? Moreover, to my knowledge the cost of living in Florida is much higher than the cost of living in the DR (correct me, if I am wrong).
Like Maria, I am a European citizen as well and have been thinking about a possible move to the DR for quite some time. If it was possible for a European to easily get a Green Card and to relocate to the US, I would go to the US without further delay (not necessarily to Florida though)!
Maybe, you or other forum members can advise me how to get a permanent residency in the US (without marrying of course ). Any informational help or assistance would certainly be appreciated!
Thanks + regards, Bachatero
Wrong conclusion.... people from European Union who freely enter US and stay here for as long as they please I draw a conclusion that for Western Europeos US is wide open.
Wrong conclusion.
Unless you have a Green Card your stay is limited to whatever period is stamped in your passport by the immigration officer.
I think the maximum for this length of time is 182 days, but this may be obsolete info.

A multilingual European with a degree in Economics and experience in international business management / marketing and sales should find something decent (at least in the US).
You might want to check out IMF or WB. They have some internships and other programs for young professionals. It is very hard to get in but don't be afraid to try
