Synopsis: The definitive guide for anyone dreaming of a move to paradise: Belize

Welcome to Belize, one of the quirkiest countries you'll ever know—a nation of freedom seekers, white sand beaches, and Mayan ruins, at a bargain price.
 
Whether motivated by a desire for adventure, discomfort with the current political climate, or the need to make the most of a diminished nest egg, more and more Americans are considering an overseas move. Drawing on more than three decades of experience helping people relocate happily and successfully, Kathleen Peddicord shows how finding a new home in Belize can improve your quality of life—and help you save money. She addresses all of the essential issues, including: finding a home to own or rent, researching and understanding your tax liability, obtaining health insurance and medical care, avoiding common mistakes and pitfalls, and opening a bank account.
 
Whether you're most interested in its virgin rainforest, barrier reef, and gorgeous beaches; status as a tax haven and reputation as a place to start over; or easy access to the rest of the Caribbean, Mexico, and Central America, Your New Life Overseas: Belize is the ultimate guide to making your dreams of a life abroad come true.
