Will you stay there long term or keep moving?
I have been here 2.5 years and will likely continue living here in Guatemala. Maybe not in this same town - I might move to the Caribbean or the Pacific (both are close down in these parts) or find a more remote spot in the mountains for a while. I have contemplated moving down to my "second home" down in Costa Rica on the Panama border, where I spend 1 month per year (I will be there again in 3 weeks). But, right now this works. I have met a ladyfriend as well, bought a truck, have friends, etc. So I am pretty happy in this country. Plus, my work is based on USA East Coast time, so moving to Thailand or Australia or something would mean crazy work hours. Right now I enjoy being able to keep Antigua as my "home base" and then travel for a few weeks and work from other places. I just worked from Belize for 2 weeks and now am up on a mountain lake this week. I have also worked from Mexico and Costa Rica and USA when I visit family.
