Counting the days now, Playa Del Carmen....

Hey syxforex, then we will be neighbours, I'm counting days to move to Merida. Yeah and you are right, I don't pay tax since 12 years.

Thanks ThatmanfromTexas,

I had to delay my trip to Costa Rica for a couple of weeks ... now in may 2012
As far as I know , and as you said , there are areas with plent of expat ( american and others) but I will avoid these areas like Tamarindo for the same resaons you have highlited .
I will hunt for housing in the south of Nicoya peninsula ( motezuma , samara .. ) .

Echos du Costa Rica

Best regards

Congrats, when do we leave?

Mike

If all goes as planned it will be sometime between the last hurricane and the first snowfall, so hopefully around October. I can feel the sand in my toes and and the cold Corona in hand, breeze up, hats on... till the end of days..

Slightly off topic, but why not Salinas or Cuenca Ecuador?

Had I known the fancy camera crew would have been filming, I would have waved!
