Thank you
 
Hi There,

Just wanted to thank everyone that has been sharing information and assisting people with their questions. I've been on the island since August1st and nicely settled in. This forum was very helpful.

For new people, I suggest you read as much as possible because a tone of topics have been discussed. Also if possible a few long visits to the island to really understand what you're getting yourself into. Immigration is not so easy and requires a lot of time and patience.

Once you're here, don't take offence if you think you're receiving bad service. People just like to take their time, so relax and take your time as well. It's good for you...

Thanks again to everyone who helps with all the questions.
:thumbsup::thumbsup:

Glad to hear you settled in allright. Did you ever get through with the shipping of your crate? I would be curious to know how you got through on the Barbados end, with customs, clearing etc.

Beach Zombie, Welcome to Barbados.

I like your comment, "Once you're here, don't take offence if you think you're receiving bad service. People just like to take their time, so relax and take your time as well. It's good for you..."

That is good advice for people considering moving to Barbados and for some already living in Barbados, because Bajans don't want to hear anymore about how things are done abroad. The current economic downturn has people all over the world looking inward, not outward. That is a heads up.

Interesting point reslax - however i would say that when we stop learning we start dying so progress is always about learning from others mistakes
