There a large expat population living in St Lucia for many years and are certainly happier there than in there home. Countries . Good luck to you , you are doing the right thing,if you want to know more contact me again Paul

Hi Paul,
Thank you for your encouragement.  We were planning on living on savings for a few years.  My hubby is a directional driller in oil and gas and I am an optician.  We would consider working if an opportunity presented itself.  Did your children attend local schools or private schools? My seven year old is on the autism spectrum, on the highly functional end.  We are prepared to home school but I would love to have him attend school with other children.  What do you consider to be the BEST thing and the WORST thing about life in St. Lucia?

Hi Jennifer ,

Welcome to Expat.com

I have created a new thread with your post on the Saint Lucia forum for more visibility and interaction.

Thanks

Priscilla
