One of the really interesting things about where I live here in Puerto Rico is that my house is located within the grounds of a resort… so I bump into a fair number of tourists when I’m at the gym or walking on the beach.
People engage me in conversation a lot– they can’t imagine actually living in such a paradise, and they’re full of questions about what it’s like.
I always enjoy talking about Puerto Rico and giving visitors a candid view of the advantages and disadvantages of living here. But almost invariably as part of that conversation, someone asks:
“Yeah, but don’t you lose the right to vote when you move here?”
