    My mom is from Nicaragua and she visits often, she just purchased a little house down there and living in Canada, I often think of just dropping everything, taking my savings and moving back to my roots… I’m surfing your videos to try and see if I have the courage and motivation

    I’m so happy for Brett! It’s quite obvious that living in Nicaragua has brought him much joy ❤ The way he describe the rainy season as “green and lush” is how I would describe his energy and demeanor in this video 🌱🌞 Here’s for a long life in Nicaragua for Brett 🍻

    Muchas Gracias amigos! It was very insightful to listen to Brent story. Thank you for having him on to explain his own experience. As you said Brent, there is no substitute for “boots on the ground“. My husband and I listen to and watch your videos with great enthusiasm. Keep up the good guys. We are subscribed to your channel and are slowly inching our way toward Nicaragua from Hawaii. Aloha from the Big Island!
    Please remind me, exactly when is the rainy season? Were used to rain here on the big island so it’s not a game changer. It does make things so incredibly green!

    Great video! One thing I'm wondering about... I'm a car guy, building a V8 Ranger pickup, I'm older (almost 60) and always wanted to do it. I also have an older motorcycle, a 79 XS400 Yamaha that I love, is there a problem bringing it ? I've been planning to move for a while, got myself a new, small, cheap trailer to bring my bike on, a few personal goods- guitar and amp, effects pedals etc. and after being free of my long unhappy marriage in the US, I'd love to come and make a fresh start. But never knew about a ten-year old vehicle law, can someone fill me in about that? Thanks
