Hello everyone. Our names are Mike and Gloria. We are Albertan Canadians tired of freezing our @#$&#@s off and are very open to any tips and tricks anyone would like to suggest to make our moving transition smoother. My GF and daughter and 3 beautiful pomeranians are going to live in the DR full time and for now I will be working in Alberta for 7 months a year for a few years. Like I said any suggestions will be gratefully received and we look forward to getting to know all of you better.

I too am an Albertan but have wintered in Arizona since 2010. I would be pleased to pass on/exchange info as I learn it as well. I will be going to DR late Sep to mid Oct for the first time and will be meeting friends face to face. I will also be learning Spanish while staying with these folks in the city of Moca...Good luck - I 'm finishing my "work life" in just a few weeks.....can hardly wait!

GMDouglas - I have just arrived in Las Terrenas this week. The most important issue I see just now is language. Either make sure you speak theirs or go where English is spoken.
