What is life like as an expat in your area?
When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...
"San Ignacio is a great destination for expats and digital nomads looking for a laid-back lifestyle. The town is small and friendly, with a diverse population of locals and expats. The cost of living is low, and the climate is warm and sunny year-round. There are plenty of outdoor activities to enjoy, from exploring the nearby Mayan ruins to swimming in the crystal-clear rivers. The town also has a vibrant nightlife, with plenty of bars and restaurants to explore. Expats and digital nomads can easily find affordable accommodation, and the internet connection is reliable. All in all, San Ignacio is an ideal destination for those looking for a relaxed lifestyle in a beautiful setting," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to San Ignacio, Belize.
"Open season on Gringos...check crime logs just for the month of July 2011...getting very scary if you are white American," commented one expat who made the move to San Ignacio, Belize.
