Dale's Podcast on Moving to Jamaica

My wife Dale was recently interviewed by a blogger at Jamaicans.com in a 60 minute interview that, I think makes for some good listening!

She's been back in Jamaica for four years, and has a business helping expats to make the move for themselves.

Here is the link to the podcast: Dale Pilgrim-Wade's Wisdom on Returning to Jamaica.

The article that it's taken from can be accessed here.
