AmbergrisCaye.com Home Forums Talk Belize Chat Area I had to tell you.......

Not really interested in drinking all day!........but I know what you mean. Perhaps only all night! It is interesting to me that no one lives for THINGS there ...if you know what I mean. They live for life....it is definitely not about aquireing things......love that!

how do you spell aquireing?

You are too funny Mannix99, a couple of typos here and there add flavor to a message, just like bits of cork in a good bottle of wine. There I go with the drinking again, I've got to get back to thinking without a beliken in both hands.

Do you live on Jamaica now mon?.....Did you meet (r) the long haired gentleman at Cholos who kicked my butt in foosball?....so many characters........ eh?

yeah...good thing I like Belikan......

Sorry.....didn't see your profile.....love Chicago......bloody Marys at the matchbox....awesome.....was there 4 weeks ago for meals on wheels at the .....Hilton? Eat at Mod......delicious .....and Black bird.....Chef is a really nice guy!

Hey Mannix 99, don't live in Jamaica anymore, that was about 5 years ago. I managed a booze cruise type deal on a 45 foot catamaran. It was great going to work everyday in just a bikini. Anyway, now I live in Evanston, north of Chicago and I'm working in the legal field, I swam with a bunch of my coworkers down in San Pedro, sharks that is. Anyway, I see that you like to fish, I did a bunch of deep sea fishing in Cayman and caught some huge wahoo and yellow fin tuna. Also a great dolphin (not flipper), what a place. Also a chef you are, cool, I love to eat.

Manix,

I liked the way you put that. Most of the people I met said you learn to live without a lot. The large majority said that moving there was the best decision they made in their life, but it is not easy. I heard all the good and all the bad. I was told that it is not easy to gain Belizean citizenship. A friend of mine who lives there said he had to prove his business would benefit the local economy and that it was something that had not been done by someone else. He also said he has requirements he has to follow for how long he has to stay before he gains full citizenship (he just moved there last fall). I met several poeple who divide thier year- now that's the perfect life! Maybe someone here knows more about it.

My one friend is considering becoming a yoga instructor down there, but I thought yoga was for people who needed to incorporate relaxation techniques- from what I can tell, the people down there have that down pretty good!

AC Beach Bum - ditto on yoru sentiments.
