My expat journey
san pedro / corozal, Belize
Medical very inexpensive, 1) trip to hospital for multiple x-rays of foot., 1) trip to lab for blood work, 3) trips to local doctor for treatment and advice for condition including two prescriptions, everything including travel (buss & taxi) roughly $65.00 - $70.00 US..
Don't get me wrong, for the most part everyone is pleasant and appeared trustworthy , we meet some WONDERFULL PEOPLE, but we were robed ,snorkel gear taken of 2nd story veranda that could not even be seen from the ground. The cops got the guy (local druggie bum) from surveillance video at hotel. I was present when they "interrogated" him (they lumped him up so bad, I felt sorry for him) then off to jail. They do not tolerate bad tourism press, tourism is how most natives survive in San Pedro. Beside that, the really annoying thing is the CONSTANT attempt to sell trinkets and craft items (souvenirs) that you just don't want (some are under the assumption all north Americans and Europeans are rich).

Atlantic bank by teamheisler
So from what I hear, Atlantic seems to be the Corozal bank of choice for expats?
Is there anyway that we can set up the account while living still in the US? We are planning to come in October and stay until May. We would like to set up the account prior to coming to Belize. I also would like to know if anyone is using the ... Read More
