Considering Relocation

Tona533741

Hello Group,


How are you ?


I am a 53 year old teacher considering the best time to retire.  I live in New York City...


I am planning on visiting different islands or countries before I decide to settle down.


I have visited the DR before and I like the laid back vibe.


I make frequent one weekend trips but want to see what a 6 month stay looks like. I am just considering my options.


Glad to be part of a community.

Welcome to the forums!  What parts of the country have you visited so far?

I, too, was a teacher in New York and settled here on the north coast of the Dominican Republic after having traveled around much of the island. The Caribbean Islands had been my winter vacation destination over the years. As much as I love Puerto Rico, the DR just seemed like a better fit for me. I still hear home to New York for some holidays and most of the summer, but I'm definitely enjoying my time here.
