Moving to the Caribbean is something that quite a lot of Britons are tempted to do when they retire. However, many people who are much younger make the decision to leave the hectic pace of life in the UK and move to sunnier climes. There are plenty of opportunities for ex-pats with management experience in retail, hospitality, and finance.
The pace of life in the Caribbean is much slower. There is a thing called “island time”. The phrase “I will do it today” means you’ll be lucky to get it done in a week, while “I’m on my way” means they haven’t left yet. What you don’t get is long summer evenings, because the sun rises at about 6 – 7am and sets at about 6 -7pm, but you don’t need jackets or sweaters – ever. There are a lot of benefits of moving to the Caribbean.
If you decide to make, the leap you need to use a company with years of experience in Caribbean shipping and relocating to Jamaica. Moving to Jamaica can be a complicated business because there is so much involved. You need to make so many decisions on what furniture you need to take and what you might leave behind. Do you take your car or buy another when you get there? Will you need a full container for all your belongings, or will you only need a part container? Are there things that you are not allowed to take? All these questions can be answered by a company with long experience.
Some companies also ship a lot of commercial freight to the Caribbean and are regularly shipping barrels to Grenada and shipping to Barbados as well as to Jamaica. Whatever your requirements for shipping to the Caribbean, make certain that you use a shipping company that is well-established.
