Cheap! Rent is $480/month, furnished w/ electric and water (800 sq. ft.). Shopping at the Super is about $100 a month. Gas is $2.40 a gallon. Beer is $1 everyday! I came home to get my car...sell what I have left and pack the rest in my truck to drive back 40 hours. It`s only $50 to take your truck across on the Trans Caribe. And $3 per person. There are so many dive jobs available it`s not funny and we need divers that speak several langauges. The most I encounter is spansih, (duh!) German, French and Italian. We`ve had a few people from Spain and Isreal, but we all speak the same underwater. It`s so awesome!!!
