Fresh Food & Handmade Goods in PR by crystalrose
One of the ideas I have when I get down is that I'd like to start a small business, maybe a hobby farm or store, and sell some produce or goods at locally. What's the food situation like down there? Are there farmers markets? Is it ...

It's a little off-topic but I googled the coconut thing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_by_coconut It's possible but very unlikely, like getting bitten by a shark or struck by lightning. The high numbers are an urban myth. Also, ... Read More


Would anyone be interested in mailing a PR postcard? by crystalrose
Okay, this might sound a bit odd but please try to hear me out. Part of our moving to PR process involves getting the inlaws to come with us. They're not against the idea or anything but we'd like to see them as excited about it as we are. ...

If our house doesn't sell right away that's fine but I really don't see it being a big issue in my neighborhood. Besides packing we actually don't have that much to do inside. The big outside projects will have to wait until the ... Read More

Thanks for all of the generous offers. You guys really are great! I'm gonna get their address from my husband today and I'll send out a PM or two. We're looking to move during the summer/off-season. Depending on the time of year we ... Read More


High School Online in PR by MSuarez4195
We are planning on a move to PR in the near future, but wanted to know if anyone has experience with a high school online program. We are able to get high school online for free in our area in NJ, but when looking to do this in PR it seems that it ...

I should specify that the international one isn't free. I think it's about the same price as the K-12 school. I think you can enroll part-time for less money too but then it doesn't include a HS degree. You'd have to get one as a ... Read More

Are you talking about Connections Academy? They have a free online one in my state (MN.) They also have an international option for people who live abroad. That's likely what I'll be choosing my daughter later on, that or part-time courses ... Read More

any experience with the Cabo Rojo area and building vs. buying?
Hi all, right now we're still in the planning/debating stages of selling our house and moving to PR with the inlaws. (We'd buy separate houses.) We're leaning towards the Cabo Rojo area. Basically we're trying to find somewhere safe, ... Read More


Schools or Homeschool tutor in the Rincon area? by surferteacher
Hi My name is Kelly and I am currently teaching for 15 years in NJ. My husband and I are trying to make the move to either Rincon or Aguadilla or somewhere in between. I am trying to figure out my best options for teaching in that area as I am not ...

What do you teach? We might be moving to Cabo Rojo and I was planning on homeschooling our daughter myself, at least until she needs high school coursework. I could see using a homeschooling tutor for specific subjects or in the later years. Maybe ... Read More
