Electricity in Ambergris Caye is perfect. It’s been a long time since we had a blackout here. The only time that we get problems with electricity is when they are trying to put more electricity up north as to meet the demand here.Electricity in Ambergris Caye is perfect.

In Granada, you can get by with just English, but we highly recommend that you to learn Spanish because that is the language that you will hear around town. Not only do we speak Spanish, but we only have our own colloquial language that you as an expat would need to learn, especially if you decide to live and stay here in Granada.

Anyone who is accustomed to living in those places would find Algarve to be a welcomed relief. We clearly do get some flies and mosquitoes in the summer but they are not at the epidemic level. Some houses here have pools so sometimes mosquitoes breed in the water and we have to swat them away but it’s not a big deal. People here often get wax candles that have a scent that repels mosquitoes. These candles are easily available at the department stores or hardware stores and cost between €1 (US $1.10 or £ 0.75) and €5 ($5.50 or £ 3.69) depending on the size of the content. It’s a very efficient way of getting rid of mosquitoes. Yesterday was the last Sunday of the month which means it is the Amigos de Animales Spay and Neuter Clinic.
The day actually begins on Saturday when it is time to take a small day care center and turn it into an in-take processing area, pre-op area, surgical room, post-op area and recovery room. Every square inch is used in the most efficient manner possible.
On Sunday, the veterinarians arrive from Costa Rica to begin operating on at least 100 animals....
The Flower and Coffee International Fair in Boquete is one of the most important in the region. The town of about 25,000, plays host to an expected 130,000 visitors during the 10 day run, which estimates about $2 million dollars to the economy. The floral offerings come from Canada, the US, Central and South America. The crowds come quite literally from around the world.
