In Culebra
August 1st, 2007
We made it to Culebra on Saturday from Tortola, British Virgin Islands by boat in four hours. Our internet access is spotty and slow at best. I will update more in the near future including pictures and a full trip report.

I am working on making some updates to the Palmetto Guesthouse website and packing the last of our belongings before we move up to Culebra. The story on traveling with pets will get posted on Monday.

Why Didn’t You Buy In The BVI? - part 2
June 29th, 2007
In continuing with the post, “why didn’t we buy in the BVI” I will finish off the story with a comparative look at the cost (note: just the property itself, I did not include the taxes or other costs) of purchasing a home or property in the British Virgin Islands. In fairness to the BVI, I decided to evaluate housing and land prices for three of the places Terrie and I had considered making our permanent home, which are the BVI, Nicaragua, and Culebra. Additionally, for those looking to maybe purchase in one of these three places I thought it would give folks a ballpark idea of what the prices are like.

It was such a common theme that I thought I would give the answer in a quick post, which will supersede part 2 of “Why we didn’t buy in the BVI?”
