Hi, I’m Tobi! 👋
For decades, I refused to even consider a holiday in Latin America. So if you have reservations about this part of the world, I completely understand — I was one of those people.
It took two things to change my mind: the pandemic, and my better half, who finally convinced me to at least take a look.
Originally I’m from Germany. After living in Australia for 8 years, we moved to Nicaragua in 2021 — and it turned out to be one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. We liked the country so much that we quickly started building a life here.
Since then we’ve done the full program: bought a car, bought a house, started a business and received permanent residency. Along the way we made plenty of mistakes, and that’s exactly why I started this community: to share what we’ve learned and help newcomers avoid the same pitfalls.
Now I’d love to hear from you: where are you from, and what’s drawing you to Nicaragua? 🇳🇮
