Moving to Paradise
I am 24 and my boyfriend and I are interested in moving to the beautiful island of St. John, I love the relaxed, friendly atmosphere, and beautiful scenery. I will have a degree in Communication Studies from the University of Iowa and am interested in pursuing a career in any related field especially media production such as television or radio (curious to know more about this industry in the islands). I have also worked in the restaurant/service industry for over 3 years, and love to write (hence the drawn out postings). I like to chill out and have a geat time, and I consider meeting people to be the spice of life. We'll be moving in August,2004 and are looking for some people to build up a network of friends and contacts.
Adios,
Shalea
P.S. Kudzu, THANK YOU for the info about TV2, I will definitely look into it.
Hello Shalea,
I would say look in the yellow pages for radio stations - http://www.viphonebook.com
There are a few with web sites - visit them:
www.wsta.com
www.wvwi.net
TV Stations try TV2 as suggested but also look at the public television station visit them at

If you have experience writing you could look into the Daily News.
Restaurant and service you can look into if the Communications field doesn't work out.

i love st john too, but it's just too darn expensive. unless u have deep pockets, i wouldn't recommend moving there. i chose st croix because of it's relaxed environment. in the 3 years i've been here, i haven't had any problems and have been one of the few fortunate ones. i've seen many people come and go with my time here. i try to stay optimistic for people who move here because i've had such a great experience, but i know there more people who come here and turn around to go back. it's paradise, but it's not for everyone. it's a VERY different way of life. good luck.
