Anybody else living and working oversees or wants to?

My wife and son and I just moved to Puerto Rico and plan on being here for at least 6 months. The weathers fantastic by the way!

Here are two quick tips for those looking to take their work with them and live in another country:

1. Plan ahead. I mean at least 6 months or more. This will give you plenty of time to buy your plane tickets 2 to 3 months ahead, find and arrange an apartment or house to rent, figure out local customs, and learn the language, etc.

2. Make sure the country has a decent internet connection. When we first got here the only option I thought we had was a mobile broadband connection that costed a ton and was slower than dial up. Waiting 15 minutes for a single page to download was like being transported to 1993. Luckily they had DSL with 4mg download speeds so, hallelulja!

If you live somewhere exciting just because you can, where are you at? Have any other advice for people wanting to do the same?
