Dominical/San Isidro is a nice area in which to live. The latter is growing by leaps and bounds and I am sure that there are plenty of opportunities for enterprising expats. There is a lot of competition in your field at present. You won't have a problem with your U.S. Clients but should have a corporation to run a business here. Nicaragua is a beautiful country but has a lot of problems starting with the government. Business opportunities will be scare as long as the country doesn't have its act together. Sincerely, Christopher Howard Nate,

Specifically software training, web design, freelance design work, tech support for mac and pc and video services (for realtors and tourist related marketing websites). I just retuned from Dominical / San Isidro areas in CR and loved it. It seemed to me that there were opportunities to start and grow a business there (after paying to be a corporation.. though some said if you are doing business on a small scale not to bother with the corporation license). I still have some clients in the US that I would bill through paypal. We do have some $ to start up with and to get a cheap place ($375) in San Isidro. We would be happy to live with a Tico family as well and help out around the house/farm, teach English or computers in exchange. The area we are looking at is the San Isidro area. We also are looking into Nicaragua, though I'm not sure how ideal that country is for ex-pats searching for a cheap, safe, easy to get around place with great weather, fresh organic food and low allergies (our main motivators) Thank you very much for you thoughts on this. I have talked to a few other designers who gave me good feedback, but I value your opinion very much. Great website! Nate Hello,
