We go to Belize every year and I LOVE IT!!! It is just so beautiful.There is a way to avoid carb overload though... Just grilled chicken or fish for dinner with a side salad or steamed veggies! Easy! Fruit plates for breakfast, ceviche for lunch, just go easy on the corn chips. I will do fry-jacks or pupusas on the weekends though! My special treat. I stay away from rice and beans as much as possible, they are delicious and I love them but I only eat them if I am invited out and it is served to be respectful of my hosts. Then I scarf it down! They dont slather their food in oil or butter either so that is a big plus! And I eat the hell out of marie sharp's! Give me a plate of grilled wings and some Marie Sharp's and I am HAPPY!

I think number 6&7 are also in other countries like the USA……but with that being said, I hate fast foods and I hope it forever stay out of Belize. I live in Cayo now after living in California for almost 40 years. I would not trade this for LA again. I never went to shopping malls, hated them, too crowded. Clifton Hyde is the best mechanic this side of the country, but he will travel…….he is honest, trustworthy, intelligent and well versed on fixing vehicles, even the newer ones like mine. And happy to see some people leave. 😅

@@gisellebze lol, don’t get me wrong when I say this…..but I wish I could educate Belizeans on how to elect officials. I think this country could be in better standings internationally and domestically, but the politicians that are elected are in it for their own financial gains and not for the interests of the country. And it seems Belizeans always want to make a note of saying, “my country has done nothing for me” instead of them saying how can I make Belize better. Like president Kennedy said, “ask not what your country can do for you, but ask, how can I make my country better” Young Belizeans are leaving at an alarming rate. We need to keep the youths here to help change the narrative of PUP or UDP. Just my opinion. But FYI, other than Cayo I would live in Caye Caulker or Placencia.

I've spent a decade in Mexico. Now I'm coming up on 1 year in Nicaragua. So I'm very interested to spend a year if not more in Belize. How's the visa situation there and how long can you stay on a tourist visa. Also you a realitor?? Is that just the sell of properties? Or do you also help expats find rental properties. If no on the rentals could you refer or pass me the number of a trustworthy individual who does. Love your show .. very direct and honest.

Hubby and I have oceanfront land in Belize and we've decided to sell it. It's boat access only, but not far from the road to Corozal. Living off grid sounded great, but arthritis is taking it's toll, so growing our own food and praying the boat starts, isn't stolen or gets a leak is too much for us as we age.

I had a virtual job interview while staying in San Ignacio, I had a hard time finding a dress shirt. When I finally found a place that sells dress shirts, I didn’t have any cash. I had to stand in line for almost 20 minutes to access a ATM.

Once the title transfer has been lodged at the lands department, you can take possession of the property. It will take approximately a year before the land title is issued in the new name
