New members of the Honduras forum, introduce yourselves here - 2022

Hi all, My wife and I are trying to arrange plans to make Utila our home in the next couple years. We will be there in May for 2 weeks to do as much fact finding as possible, mainly real estate. Working on all the details on our exact plan as either full retirement (my thought) or I may work a couple more years remote from Utila for the US company I am at right now as well as selling our beach home we have now on an island in the US for use of a buying a beach front home there. We can't wait to be there in May and hope to connect with some people while there as well as meet people in our situation with future plans as well as people that have already made the plunge. Thanks for listening and have a great 2022!

Hi there!

Planning to move to Honduras this April, and looking for fellow expats to ask and learn how to go about the daily life in Tegucigalpa.

I am from the Philippines, and I was wondering if there is also a Filipino community in Honduras as well.

Hope to connect with fellow expats soon!

hello, my name is Andy, i have been living in honduras (yoro) since November.. I am married to a hondran girl, and I just got my residency card.. still feeling my way around the country and the terrible roads LOL

Hi Andy,

You have not been here long enough if you think the roads are terrible.

In some areas a pothole is an asset because that means you have a road.

Actually Honduras ability to maintain and improve, at least the highways, is improving rapidly.

Hi my name is Ike and I'm an American, I might have a job offer to work in Honduras, as an IT contractor.  I heard nothing but beautiful things about the Country.

What part of Honduras ?

@ttastollery I live just outside La Ceiba, Atlàntida. I am a native Texan and came here for peace in my soul. There are a few things some expats struggle with here but most are easily overcome... The cost of living is quite low and the quality of life is high here. Beaches, mountains, jungles and warm friendly ppl. Honduras may provide what you seek.

@kimberlynapier56  Hello There! we are doing the move to Utila as we speak so IF you need any "OMG we did this" tips, please let us know! (Mark and Sonia - moving to Utila August 2022)

Hello Everyone,

My family and I are expats and have made Honduras our permanent home.  Occasionally travel to and from the US. We are on the Mainland near La Ceiba and have built a business with home goods.  We noticed that good quality items are really hard to come by so our store sells everything from appliances to curtains to blankets and baby products and yes Vehicles too.   I would like to hear some feedback from you all and if you need anything please feel free to reach out.  Welcome to the Community!

Is there anyone on here near San pedro sula or El progreso

@Remaxmainlandproperties hi there interested in meeting you and learning more about how I can import vehicles to La Ceiba. I purchased a property recently and am fixing it up to my taste. I'm from Texas and I'm maintaining my home in Houston, probably will continue to do that. I'm interested in exporting vehicles I have a lot of experience in buying and selling cars and I'm good at fixing anything with a vehicle.  What is the most cost-effective way of bringing vehicles from Houston Texas to La Ceiba Honduras.

@DineshBatra53 When you find out more please let me know.  I shipped a car in August, the whole process, I spent about 4500.  I plan to drive a vehicle down around the first a January.  I have the same idea that you have.

@Remaxmainlandproperties I just move to the Corozal area, What's the name or your place?  What is it near? 

@larryjamesa What area are you driving from maybe we can do a caravan.. I'm in Houston Texas

@DineshBatra53 I'm driving from Kentucky around the second week of January.

Hello!  Wish you a very happy new year to all. I am new is this forum and interested to meet with new friends.
