Upfront:Thinking about purchasing AD space on Warrior Forum (will remove my signature so does not seem self promotional)

Just wondering how many of you like myself get into online business with hope of some day relocating to tropics? How many here understand rules around moving to tropical countries, prices, economies of different islands etc.

Are there questions you have about being able to live on one of the Caribbean islands etc. Any questions, tips and or input would be all appreciated!

    When my ship comes in I am moving to Estonia. It is a country where you can get free wifi every where you go. Apparently internet access is a basic human right. So they can not deny you internet access.

    Maybe the tropics; maybe the Mediterranean - not quite decided, yet.

    There are enough Warriors here who have already done that (and/or to "similar places", whatever that means) for me to suspect that there must also be people here planning it for the future.

    Those (like myself) with an interest in the subject are avid followers of some of the countless existing sites/blogs covering this.

    Yes, countless questions. Nothing specific that springs immediately to mind, as many of my questions are prompted by my reading/browsing on the subject.

    By the way, you don't need to edit your signature-file to leave it out of specific posts/threads: if you scroll down an inch from where your submit posts, you'll see some checkboxes, of which the top one, checked by default, is "Show my signature". All you need to do is disable that in the posts/threads over which you wouldn't want anyone (including moderators) to imagine that you're posting "with promotional intent".

    Will your ship also have free WiFi available?

      These days, between the political corruption and plain old savagery and the natives, you really have to worry about getting your head cut off. I hear Portugal is one of the safest places to live.

        It's cheap enough, anyway - if that's important to you.

        But there's quite a lot of crime there (especially in densely populated areas), compared with much of Europe. For "overall safety", it probably compares very badly with - for example - the whole of Scandinavia.

        It certainly has much better weather, though.

          I didn't realize that, I was told the crime was low.


          I guess I'll stick to Jersey for now lol.

            Possibly, compared with Noo Joisey? Not sure about this, though - a little outside my area. But I think you don't still have the Soprano family there, anyway?

    From what I keep reading about it, if Denmark had a warmer climate, I'd be there right now.
