Let's start an island commune populated by org expatriates!

Virgin Islands!!!!

I'll post a pic later

I have a good friend who invited me to Barbados!! I think I will have to visit!!

Go to Panama. It's great for expats and has lots of beaches without being an island.

I surely will....I was thinking about the Caribbean Island of Statia after finding out it only costs about 15K to build a two story house overlooking the ocean!!!

I am not staying here man...FOR REAL!!!

I'm telling you Panama is the way to go plus we never get hurricanes. The view from my spot

You should also consider Curacao. It's gorgeous and has lots of resorts with spas so you could get work as a masseuse but it's not as populated/commercial as Aruba.

How is the cost of living in Panama? And Curacao?

Panama is getting high as fuck because of all the expats. It's the #1 destination for retirees outside the US. I think Curacao is cheap because it's less populated, but I don't know. I do know that most of the employees were brought it from surrounding islands because they did not have a workforce to match the growth of resorts on the island. So, most of the employees were not locals.

Just talked with a guy who's brother is moving back to Holland from living at Curacao for 6 years.

It's not easy to find employment, a lot of criminality and drug trafficing. And very segragrated colourwise.

I had a very limited expeirence but that doesn't surprise me at all. Didn't know about the crime/drugs tho.

A Thai island, maybe Koh Chang?

Very cheap cost of living, lovely people, lots of nice little beaches with white sand.

$800/month will get you a place like this 3 bedroom house, with 1600 sqm of land. Not too shabby.

Yes!

Any number of Thai islands will do.

Ko Si Chang is nice and close to Pattaya, so you're always near civilization, but can still escape.

You can see Ko Si Chang here in the background.

What is the island that Aksel lives on? That's a place I'd check out.

Koh Phangan. It's party central in Hat Rin, but elsewhere I imagine it's still quieter and more picturesque (though I haven't been there since about 2002).

I'm not really sure to tell you the truth.

Fauxie might know. I was under the impression

he had returned to Holland, but I really don't know.
