Hello,
much thanks for admitting me on this great site of Aruba.
I was born in the Netherlands but I lived and worked a big part of my life in Belgium.
Since a a few years I am in pension, and the last three years I lived on one of the Spanish Islands together with a girl friend.
Due to a series setbacks, I went to the Netherlands alone where I live now since a couple of months.
I have still the Dutch nationality and I plan to settle me for the rest of my life in Aruba if it is possible for me, around the month of August, or latest in November 2009, if possible.
My pension (payed from belgium), is not very big, around 2640 Aruba florins pro month, and I hope that you can give me an advice if I can live with this in Aruba in a modest but good way.
I Love the sun and friendship between people, and it would be my greatest wish to find many friends there to continue my last part of life in a peaceful, joyful and lovely way.
Much thanks to all the people here who can advice me in this.
Dushi amigu.
