Additionally, it is essential to plan for any medical needs and consider what healthcare insurance might be required.

"Use these types of forums to ask questions. Use the internet to explore. Google maps was very helpful. Our process was 10 months from first interview, so we had plenty of time to research, neighborhoods, schools and shopping areas. That said, nothing can prepare you for being on the ground. If you can get the chance to do some recon, do it," remarked another expat who made the move to Paradise Island, Bahamas.
