I moved to Santa Elena from the US. I was shocked how the locals can live on next to nothing. It's the way they have always lived. Every time I go the grocery there are armed guards out front. When I'm shopping I make sure that I get something for the guards to snack on, so they are on there game just in case. Who knows the last time they ate a good meal. It's a way of life here and it takes time to adjust to it. I LOVE THIS PLACE. But I don't have to work here. I'm retired. I am blessed to live amoung the real people of Belize.
This whole video shows you spending money. This is not something unusual in Belize. Easy to spend and impossible to make a $1.00 where the min wage is $12 to $24 USD a day for 8hours work.
Soooooo fun!!!! ❤
