Hi
I am white english and from London and i'm thinking of moving to Dominican Republic with my girlfriend who is french Congolese, I have experience of living in West Africa and have no problem adjusting to the simplicities of less well off countries, i am in the process of doing a TEFL and Spanish course as i was thinking this may be a good way of supporting my self while i settle in.
Dose any one know roughly how it would cost to rent a 1 bedroom flat in Santo Domingo or just out side possibly Santiago?
Im definitely not interested in any thing luxury or in any kind of gated community i just would like a normal small place in a dominican neighbourhood, electric and running water would be nice
Im sure if it is any thing like Africa there will be many complications along the way, my first thought is to spend a decent amount of time there to fined out what part of the DR suits me best and wether or not i can support my self, I guess the next step would be finding a good lawyer to educate me on the next steps.
Dose any one know the roughly the cost of a residency permit or wether or not is is just worth paying overstay fines?
If any one has any kind of advice or input would be much appreciated
