I am exploring the idea of moving to Guatemala sometime next spring and would like to know a few things related to the country.I am single.The most important to me is Internet providers because I am making my living using my computer.Here is a list of the other important things I'd like to know:
-Banking system.ATM service.I am paid by wire transfer from US but to my bank account I still keep in US.
-Housing and prices.What can you rent for ex with $400 a month???
-What cities are safer and closer to nature possible?I don't need to live in the center of a big city for ex.IF I have an Internet connection at the outskirts of a city it would be fine.
-How far would be food stores/supermarkets/markets?Is there necessary to have a car?Is a bus system available?
-Can I renew the visa every year?
-Is there an American Consulate or Embassy?I am an American citizen.
So far these would be for now my questions.I'd appreciate if somebody can give me a closer to reality answer.Also if any of you lived in Yucatan/Mexico,how much it differs living in Guatemala than Mexico?
Thank you very much,
best
