La Serena Area Questions

10 years ago

I am planning on moving to the La Serena area of Chile Sept 2014. I have been doing much research online but would appreciate any feedback on the basics such as places and costs to live, possible employment opportunities, banking options and any other information anyone would like to offer. I am a single 40 y/o female who has office administration and healthcare experience, I will have very limited funds to start out with, a small savings to assist in transition. I have even been dabbling in thoughts of starting own business in Chile. I have limited Spanish speaking and writing skills however have been brushing up on it prior to my planned move. Would really like to live a bit outside of city but have access to transportation into city if need. I am really wanting to get away from rat race here in States and simplify my life in all aspects! I truly appreciate any feedback!
