Do you need a change? Are you tired of the day-in-day-out of North American living? Take a leap of faith by moving to a foreign country! If you’ve always wanted to travel more extensively, living abroad will give you the type of unique experiences you can’t get as a tourist, from befriending locals to buying a home.

In a country like the Dominican Republic, you can enjoy a life of luxury in your very own villa for a fraction of the cost in Canada or the US. Between the Dominican Republic’s cost of living and its vibrant culture, what are you waiting for? Keep reading to learn a few reasons why moving abroad should be your next step, and why you should take that step with Casa Linda!

Experience a Different Culture

Travelling is one of the best ways to broaden your scope beyond North American music, food, clothing, and lifestyle. While you can get a taste for different cultures on short holidays, five or six days of visiting tourist attractions isn’t enough to really immerse yourself in a country.

Living in a country like the DR allows you to get to know the locals, develop a taste for Caribbean cuisine, learn about our country’s history, and so much more.

Learn a New Language

These days, being bilingual can only be a plus! If you’ve always wanted to learn a new language but never found the time, moving to a foreign country will force you to make the time.

Spanish is the primary language in the Dominican Republic, but English is widely spoken in more touristy areas like Cabarete. So, while you don’t need to be fluent in Spanish to live in the DR, learning as much as possible will help you to connect on a deeper level with new friends, not to mention get around more easily!

Learning Spanish will also help you get more from Caribbean literature and films without needing an English translation. There’s something truly special about enjoying media in its original language!

Get Better Cost of Living

One of the biggest draws to moving abroad is that many countries have a better cost of living compared to Canada and the US. The Dominican Republic’s cost of living is significantly lower than North America’s —almost by 50% in the States and 60% in Canada!

You can enjoy recreation, purchase high-quality groceries, have regular nights out on the town, and travel to different islands, all within a reasonable budget!

Better Weather to Broaden Your Interests

Sometimes our hobbies and interests can be limited to what’s available in our own countries. There’s not as much opportunity in the northern US States to develop skills like surfing, mountain climbing, or sailing, especially during the winter. Moving to a tropical country like the Dominican Republic can allow you to enjoy these activities and many more all year round!

Gain Unforgettable Experiences

Moving abroad can give you the once-in-a-lifetime experiences that you can’t always get in your home country. If you want to explore different cultures and gain unique perspectives, moving to a country like the Dominican Republic can give you all that and more.

And you won’t be alone, either—our villa community at Casa Linda boasts many North American expats who fell in love with our beautiful island.
