I want to move to Haiti...

15 years ago

I need some advice ..
I just recently got engaged , and my fiancee lives in Haiti, I also have my brother that resides there is well . I am of haitian decent..I consider my self Haitian -american, I was born in the US. I speak creole fluenlty..and I am a pre-school teacher. Here in Tampa...

My question is ..how hard is it to find work in Haiti?
In my oppinion life is so stress free there and here in the US everyone is sooo Materialistic! Though some people may not have as much as 'WE' do here in america with the little they do have they are so HAPPY! And content, everyone helps everyone.
But most of the haitian population living conditions are very bad..that I know.

And the city is very crowded, merchants selling products and etc. Animals , such as dogs walking the streets. Trash every where...
But I will gladly live there to be with my fiancee.

I do understand that he can come here but who knows how america will be in the next two years..even though we do have Obama .What will be an average cost of living for a middle class family in Haiti?

And also if and when I do apply for the K1 FIANCEE VISA , what if it doesnt work , what if he is denied? What then?
