Why settle for Florida when you can embrace a peaceful English-speaking tropical paradise with a proud Hispanic tradition that also boasts a transparent legal system? As Langan and Dhillon argue, Belize offers perhaps the last chance to buy an affordable piece of Caribbean beachfront in a country where you will be made to feel welcome, whether you travel there to do business, camp in the rain forests, or swim above the coral reefs.
