Why Nicaragua?

By now most North Americans realize that their governments may not be there for them in their retirement years. It only takes a quick scan of the news to realize all is not well where many countries budgets and deficits are concerned. So those of us who are forward thinkers are beginning to look outside the borders of North America for an affordable, safe, and developed retirement alternative for the future.

When looking at Nicaragua as a place to call home, there are many reasons why this decision makes sense. The climate of course is moderate and lacking in ice and snow, so heating and clothing bills are reduced or non-existent. There is excellent and modern health care to be had in the major cities, with an affordable transport system to get you there should you choose to live in a more remote area of the country. Last week I found out that a bus trip from Managua (the capital) to León (a Colonial historical cultural center) could be had for $4.00US return, in a comfortable and air conditioned bus. An apartment in Managua can cost as little as $250.00US per month and, while electricity can be expensive in Nicaragua, the cost of living is still affordable. These attractive necessities are backed up by a stable and democratic government, friendly locals or “Nicas” who are always willing to share information or let you try out your Spanish and a vibrant Latin American culture. Nicaragua now possesses an attractive investment climate that encourages the newly transplanted ex-pat to put down roots and make long commutes to the office in your home country a distant memory.

Perhaps now is the time to come join a tour of Nicaragua and see for yourself what is available, and on the Nica Tour Group site is your chance to experience a wonderful and informative tour of Nicaragua, its towns, lifestyle, and the necessary facilities for retiring and investing. This tour will let you experience the wildlife, volcanoes, the unspoiled beaches, urban centers and fabulous Latin culture. The Nica Tour Group offers an informative trip with experts for advice as you make your easy decision. Then the choice is a simple one, not “if” moving here makes sense, but “when” can I leave the hustle and the stress behind and begin to enjoy a peaceful lifestyle again.

I encourage you, as someone who calls Nicaragua “home”, to review the many informative articles on this site, the information to be found on the various linked sites, and take the tour, while space and the opportunity is till open, to come and see for yourself why Nicaragua should be your new home.
