My Husband and I run a 10 unit Inn in orange walk were both ex pats living in bBelize he was born in Orange walk I was born in Mexico but raised in the USA all my life. Living in Belize 3 years now it has been a culture shock and learning lessons the hard way. Would love to meet ex pats from every where in Belize
I joined expat.com on 31 October 2010.
Wife and mother of 3 ..Leaving the U.S. was very hard on me , My husband is from Belize so he has family here I Don't so my projects where remodeling our homes and 10 unit Inn its alot of love,money ,sweat and tears time will tell if it was worth it.
Orange walk is very peaceful the chinese community is very friendly here to ex pats.
The cost of living here is high .Orange walk is a small town so gossip runs wild here. The myth here is you must be running from something to live in belize ..The veggies here are awful in quality and high at times
Growing up in California I was always around many different cultures.
Everything !!!
Traffic ! something nice about Belize your never going to sit in 2hr traffic on the 405fwy
