Do you live in Aruba??

I know we have lots of great posters here, just wondering who actually lives there now?
Its an interesting perspective living there while posting opinions.

Of course we visitors thinks its paradise.

I only live here half the time, and half of that time, I'm thinking about somewhere else. Still, I'm here.

If you live here for a long time it is just like living anywhere. There are chores to do, shopping to do and bills to pay. Of course the weather is a bonus.

I agree with Stella. You have your every day chores to do as you would anywhere. Although, you don't get as much done in a day here in Aruba. Everything moves much slower. You can't beat the weather!

I am amazed by all the lines you have to wait in. The gas station, bank, grocery store. It seems like we are always waiting..

I have existed in other places and owned homes in various places as well but to answer your question

Yes, Aruba is where I can live.

The good part is that that is just a bunch of little stuff. Better than missing Smog, Subways with foul odors,people that you see every day yet dont know their names - and on and on etc.

Yup, I will take missing little stuff all day long.

be well
