Online shopping in Belize by Priscilla

Hello everyone, Shopping online can be far more convenient and offer greater choice than going into shops, be it grocery shopping or retail. Are there options for online shopping in Belize? Which sites or apps do you use most frequently and ...

Ivana H

Good info, Terrific. I guess I kind of knew that what we (Americans) think of the tiny house movement is just Belize living for most Belizeans. I'm also intrigued by the Mennonite option, but I've read a lot of mixed reviews when it comes to ... Read More

I was watching one of those Tiny House shows the other day and wondering if that might be something that could catch on in Belize. Read More

Hopkins Realtors a Little Sketchy by CarlTate

Be careful working with realtors in Hopkins Village. You may get duped into buying less for more. Speak to more than one agency and ask the same exact questions to see who's telling it straight. Realtors from one of the major agencies will ...

Ivana H

That's an interesting perspective, Will. We haven't visited at all yet, but the top two areas that feel to me like what we're looking for are Placencia and Hopkins. I definitely feel like a sense of community is an important aspect. Is ... Read More

Not at all what I said, I guess reading comprehension can be hard. As pointed out in the original rant, it's only a small part of the equation when it comes to research. It's the fun part, for sure, but as pointed out by others, it can be ... Read More

So, so good. Thank you, billdoesbelize. I, too, have been a victim of the less than helpful advice to "google youtube videos." Thankfully, it doesn't take long to figure out who is truly helpful and you're definitely one of those ... Read More

Ah...I had heard that before, but I'd also heard it in relation to the natural lighting at a certain time of day, probably in something to do with photography. Sometimes I think I read too much, too many little bits of information floating ... Read More
