Apart from posting on this forum JoJo, where else have you looked for jobs ....... in the UK? Have you tried the tour companies yet? There are a number of UK companies that are now setting up (or HAVE set up) offices/branches over here, have you approached them? (Have a word with the Foreign Office for their names!!).
You say you have a number of degrees & a Masters - in what subjects & are any of them pertinent to your present employment &/or desire for employment over here?
What do you do at the moment & is that the profession you wish to continue (if possible) over here?
WHERE in the DR have you visited & over what period?
Is THAT the area you wish to relocate to or are you prepared to work anywhere in the DR?
Have you saved up somewhere in the region of £4,000 that you can use as deposits (on room to rent), buying of basics that you can not bring from the UK, initial living expenses until you find a job ...............
What makes an intelligent 30 year old girl from the UK want to move to a third world country? Do you have a GOOD reason other than a desire to learn better Spanish?
Try to be honest with yourself & then reply to us (if you feel like it) because living outside of a civilised (& to a great extent, PROTECTED) country like the UK is NOT as simple as many make it out to be. Being retired is ONE thing, having a nest egg to support you makes life easier ........ being poor & struggling to make ends meet each month is something entirely different! We are here to help & advise if you want it but you will have to be totally upfront if we are going to get you through to being 'Happy' here!!
Good luck ~ Grahame.
