When moving your stuff to Mexico, you can just bring things that are near and dear to you. I don't recommend that people bring their furniture, as it's quite expensive to have your household items brought down to Mexico. Basically anything that you have back home you can get here.

Bring your most treasured items and maybe just one suit.

What are the main cities, towns, communities and developments of the Cayo, Belize, including San Ignacio and Belmopan area and what is each one like?
John M. Burgos - Belize Tourism Industry Association
San Ignacio sits in the middle of other two towns: Benque Viejo Town and the Santa Elena Town. Santa Elena and San Ignacio are divided by the Macal River, which flows right through the middle. The towns are connected via two bridges and they’re currently building a third bridge to ease the flow of traffic, which should be completed before this year ends.
And Belmopan is a little bit more...

The towns are connected via two bridges and they’re currently building a third bridge to ease the flow of traffic, which should be completed before this year ends.
And Belmopan is a little bit more distant. It’s 35 miles from San Ignacio to Belmopan, which is the capital of Belize.
San Ignacio and Santa Elena are basically the same. The only difference is that San Ignacio is a bigger town, in terms of population and commerce. If we join them together, in terms of population and commerce, they’re going to be the second biggest city in Belize.
There are 24 main attractions for tourism in Belize, and Cayo has 16 out of 24 of those destinations. So that alone can let you know how beautiful, how rich with culture, destinations, and adventures Cayo is ands all it has to offer.
Belmopan is the capital city, so Belmopan is where our national government main offices sit. Everything is centralized to Belmopan. When you’re going to be dealing with any documentation or if you want to buy a piece of land you’re going to go to Belmopan. If you’re going to be applying to be a Belizean national you’re going to Belmopan. It’s a very quiet town. It’s well-structured. You can easily move around because it’s properly designed. Belmopan is the only city in the country that was properly planned before it began develop. So you have a great place for vehicles to move around and conduct business, and to set up housing and commercial areas. Belmopan is where the American embassy is located and several others.
Right now there are a lot of projects in Belmopan, especially in infrastructure. They’re trying to build and improve the main roads and the bridges. And the government is also investing a lot in building new recreational facilities – sports centers, cultural presentation venues, and so on. San Ignacio is about 30 minutes away from Belmopan.
The infrastructure projects are not only centralized in Belmopan, however. They’re also being done in Cayo, San Ignacio, Santa Elena, Corozal, Orange Walk; all the different districts will be receiving infrastructure developments.
Nicaragua, wich means “here united with water”, is a sovereign state whose people love freedom and Independence. The merging of different cultures within Nicaragua has caused the dawn of a creative, lively and blissful culture. Nicaraguans are appreciated for their natural warmth, hospitality and wisdom.

The country is known as the land of poets, and Nicaraguan poet Ruben Dario is the father of Spanish-American literary movement, Modernism. The rhythmic marimbas and folkloric dances give vibrancy to our fiestas across the country and the beautiful work of our skilled artists spreads and understanding of our history and nature.
What's the best way to get around in the Panama City, Panama area of Marbella?
Terry Little - GEM Charters and Terry Little Construction
If you’re going a short distance, the best way to get around the Marbella area of Panama City is just to walk. But watch your step because surfaces are uneven and not user friendly to wheelchairs or the disabled.
When crossing the street you should use great caution because pedestrians don’t seem to have the right-of-way, even though it’s the law.
Overall, the best way to get around in Panama City is to use a taxi, but negotiate a...
If you’re going a short distance, the best way to get around the Marbella area of Panama City is just to walk. But watch your step because surfaces are uneven and not user friendly to wheelchairs or the disabled.
When crossing the street you should use great caution because pedestrians don’t seem to have the right-of-way, even though it’s the law.
Overall, the best way to get around in Panama City is to use a taxi, but negotiate a price before you get in the taxi. It should cost you only $2 to $5 to get around in the city depending upon the time of day. Rush hour starts from roughly 3 pm to 6 or 7 pm.
At rush hour the traffic is grid-locked, so if you can walk, do that. You can take the new metro bus system and it costs a little less than a taxi, plus you have more steel wrapped around you.
I do not recommend renting a car if you’re new to the city, for a few reasons. To start with, there are very few street signs, a lot of one-way streets, construction and detours, not to mention if you make a wrong turn you will end up GOD KNOWS WHERE (LOST), and a “you can’t get there from here” status.
One of my other answers about driving in Panama City included “everyone’s horn works, and no one uses their turn signals”. Driving is a game of “chicken” and is a contact sport.
What’s the effect of illegal drug traffic in Portugal?
John Russell
Illegal drug trafficking is a big problem worldwide, in every country in Europe, and unfortunately Portugal is not an exception. There are 73 drug treatment centers in 14 of Portugal's 18 districts, including the Algarve. The number of newly diagnosed HIV cases among drug users has decreased recently to 13.4 cases per million, but that is still more than 4 times higher than the European average of 2.85 cases p/m. These are unfortunate facts and statistics of 21st century life in...

Can I use my Medicare outside the US, and if not, what are my alternatives?

In Panama we have “Social Security”. if you need it you can use it but you have to pay. If you don’t have the money they will help you anyway but at some point you will have to pay for their services.
Private hospitals have medical insurance that most of the time will cover a percentage of the cost and you pay the difference.
Thanks

In these days that moral and family values seem to be hiding in different ways, we are responsible to fight back to ensure that the new generation has a place where they will raise their children that will be safe, not only from crime or violence, but the safest place we can provide to give them values, as the best legacy we can give them.
The decrease in marriage has been considerable. Divorces have increased incredible fast. Abortion is something that women take...
Having spent around 5 years researching the best places to retire my wife and I decided that Panama was the best place. We arranged an exploratory trip to judge first hand. We selected a bed and breakfast in Ancon which is strategically placed for easy access to the important places of interest and conveniently just 5 minutes drive to the bridge of the Americas. Nearby Albrook airport was the perfect place to rent a car and only 10 minutes away in a cab.
As you meander through the village of Boquete you would have to be blind not to notice the beautiful Latin faces. Handsome men and boys; beautiful women and girls, precious babies coming and going up and down the streets each day. The Indian women in their brightly colored dresses; children in school uniforms; teenagers wearing the fashionable logos and labels they love. Even the poorest people are very clean, (unless they are working or just running errands while working.)
