Ambergris Caye, Belize
After vacationing in the Yucatan Peninsula and various other Caribbean locations through the years, I often wondered what it would be like to call a tropical place that I enjoyed “Home”. When I began to get serious about this endeavor, I narrowed down my search to what I thought would be the Costa Maya region of Mexico. As I made my plans known, a couple of friends mentioned the country of Belize and said that I should at least check it out along with my other research.
In August of 2002, I made my first trip to Belize via Cancun and like many I felt a peacefulness and wonderful blend of culture surrounded by Caribbean blue water that I was in search of. After more research and trips, I secured an investment, which later became a home for me in Belize.
I had lived in seven different states prior to relocating to California, while in the US Navy. I have studied real estate for over 30 years and have been a licensed Realtor® in the state of California for over 16 years. I do also have a background in engineering (electrical/control systems). In the past 32 years, I have been an owner and landlord of US and Belizean property. I am a member of the Ambergris Caye Rotary Club and live full time in Belize.

The Belizean National Flag
The national flag of Belize is composition of colors blue, red and white, whose central symbol is the coat of arms of the country. Belize is a Central American country, which reached its independence from the United Kingdom in 1981 (it was formerly called British Honduras). The flag of Belize was adopted on 21 September 1981, the country's first Independence Day. The national flag of Belize consists of a blue background, surrounded by two red stripes, at the upper end and another at the lower end, with the shield as focal point.
The United Party of the country is represented by the blue color in the national banner. The opposing party is represented by the red color and its lines that go from end to end in the top and bottom of the standard.
The shield is divided into three areas, whose lower area is circumscribed by an inverted V. The two upper pictures symbolize the work of the country, the one on the left has a shovel and an ax, and both implements interlaced, and in the right frame are a saw and an ax. In both cases the work of the country’s timber industry is represented in the course of history. In the lower picture is a ship sailing the ocean.
On the sides of the shield are two men with their bare torsos representing two baymen (lumberjacks), one with an ax on his right shoulder, and the other with a paddle over his left shoulder. Above the shield is a mahogany tree, a circumference of leaves skirts the shield. The Latin phrase Sub Umbra Floreo is representative of the country, and is located at the bottom of the shield on a ribbon, its translation is: under the shimmering blossom (also translated "under a shadow I blossom").
