http://urbandoggs.blogspot.com/2015/06/my-love-affair-with-paris-is-over.html
Friday, June 5, 2015. My love affair with Paris is over. On May 26th I broke up with my Paris blog. It was time. I had pretty much made up my mind a couple of years ago that I would not be retiring in Paris. It was a wonderful dream but the reality did not match the dream. Realization is a perfect example of why. It is so important to do extensive. Research on any place(s) where you to think you may want to retire. The love locks on The Pont des Arts. Here is the video.sigh. I'm on the move. I write abou...

The Aspiring Expats: The Story
http://www.blackincostarica.com/p/about.html
Retire in Costa Rica. Our Life in Video. The plan begins in 2013. A few years ago I began a blog called, I'd Rather be in Paris. At the time it was my intention to spend my retirement years in my most favorite city in the world, Paris France. A few of the things I considered. I looked at each country individually and. Decided on Costa Rica as the best possible choice (at least it would serve as a good starting point). I have to admit, I had NEVER even visited Costa Rica before. I know, some of you ma...

After 10 long months of planning, I finally received the 1st photos of the little dresses we sent to Casa Emanuel Orphanage in Guinea Bissau some 4 months ago.

So now it's late and I'm too tired to put it together. Little Star from Guinea Bissau. Medical Supp...

There are also many countries whose situation has already received worldwide attention (not saying that this has saved. Them) but at least you recognize the names (celebrity adoptions, a school for girls). Among those countries that desperately need help and the attention of the world is a tiny country of 1.5 million people. The country is Guinea Bissau. Once I heard their story, ...

Sunday, January 15, 2012. It Takes a Village - Djati - mid month update. Old Djati school bench. Maritza drove an hour and half to a saw mill, with the objective of getting the best for less.

They had not counted on the machine. Being taken out of Quebo by the army. She is not sure who. One of our Djati students. That shows the power of ...
