i am watching this video while packing to move back home to PR. when you were explaining "why did i end up in Puerto Rico?" i said "so i can move back home!" you were the one who helped me make up my mind. couple months after i discovered i had a job offer to work remotely from puerto rico and now i am moving back on april 28. your videos give me so much life!!
We own homes in Miami and Puerto Rico. I returned to Miami to accept a job that will allow me to work remotely from PR after working 60 days in Miami. Since being in Miami employers have offered me positions earning 30% more in Miami. Thanks, but no thanks, I would rather earn less and live in Puerto Rico. We flipped. Our home was in Miami, our vacation home was in PR. Now our home is is PR and our vacation home is in Miami. As much as I love PR, I also still love Miami. Fortunately we can keep both of our homes, Miami and Puerto Rico.
YAY!! I am so happy that you are able to move back home to Puerto Rico!! Fantastic news!! Definitely join me on facebook.com/jentheredonethat or instagram.com/jentheredonethat/ for more great adventures.

I'm from Puerto Rico and came to the states in 1997 and my job became remote and researching to move back. So happy for you to be moving back to the island of enchantment ❤️. I'm next hopefully soon 🥳
@@JenThereDoneThat I'm hoping to move back sooner than later. Enjoy your channel and it's been helpful to catch up. A lot has changed there since 1995. Thank you ‼️
Hi Jen. Thanks for telling it like it is about my beautiful Paradise island Puerto Rico. Many people have the wrong idea about Puerto Rico and Puertoricans. But you were right about my people, we are very Hospitable, friendly happy people, who never give up, no matter the circumstances. I'm Puertorican of Italian descent. My grandfather emigrated from Italy to Puerto Rico by boat in 1894, when the Spaniels where still in control. My dad was 4 years old and my uncle was 2 years old at the time. I'm very proud of my Puertorican birth place, and wouldn't trade it for the world. I grew up with many other European descendants, such as Irish descendants, German descendants, French descendants, English descendants, African descendants, and we all went to the same schools, and lived in the same neighborhoods in Ponce. We didn't know racism in Puerto Rico. We were all Puertoricans. That's it. There aren't any Indian natives tribes alive in Puerto Rico, since the Spaniels killed them with hard labor, and they had to bring African slaves to do the hard labors. In school l was fascinated in learning everything about our history. I went to college and learned even more about our history. There's nobody who can truly say they are Taino descendants, because we are talking about the 1500 century when they were killed by the Spaniels. And there was a small population of Tainos to begin with. What they call Indian in PR, is the mixture of blacks with white, which really aren't Indian, they are mulattos. Anyway, my dear Jen, l wanted to thank you for talking honestly and for loving my beautiful island, and clarifying, about the misconception people have about Puerto Rico. You are already Puerto Rican too. God bless you, and l will keep listening to your wonderful vlog.
Hi Jen, I too moved to PR but from NY, and I started making videos as well to help other English speakers that are going to live in PR or moving here, however Im fluent in Spanish and I lived in PR back in the days. You are doing a great job at informing viewers.
Jen, like you I am a Americano living in PR. It is so nice to see so many Puerto Ricans welcoming you to PR. Like you every Puerto Rican has welcomed me to PR. Mi casa es tu hogar. I isla es tu isla.
I love your channel! I’m learning so much. I’m 22 and moving to Puerto Rico next month! 💗I’m pretty blessed to be moving to live with my mother who is completely bilingual and has a lot of family. You’re channel is giving me so much valuable information. I appreciate you and the work you’re doing on your channel. Dios te bendiga Jen!
I am native born Puerto Rican, who moved to the mainland a little under the age of 11. Forty-Six years later I am conducting research to return. I am waiting for my wife to retire in 18 months, so I have some time to listen to your channel. The icing in the cake would be if Tesla opens a service center in the Island...
@@paulnieves5333 Thanks....I have been driving a Tesla Model 3 since August 2018. I am waiting for the Cyber Truck to come out later this year or early next year. Definitely the truck I want to be driving in PR...
@@jesusjesus534 Here is a misplaced brain, Jesus, Jesus. No estadidad, pero viviendo en USA! Mundo de hipócritas, múdate a otro país. You are neither good for USA nor for the island! Do you know that PR is American land? Yes, Spain ceded it to the USA in 1898. So, she is home, and very welcomed! Americans there to invest and make life better for the Puerto Ricans living on the island. It is her land too! What are you doing to help the people of the island, other than going to videos to show that you have a misplaced brain? God Bless Her for living on the island, for informing us about what is going on and promoting it to the world, so more tourists go to enjoy it and boost the economy.
@@jesusjesus534 En Puerto Rico o EEUU, es tierra americana, ellos hablan su idioma como tu hablas el tuyo. No te gusta? Ubícate y muévete a otro país que no sea USA.
Thank you so much. It's awesome to hear a non native person talk so many nice things about our island. I'm currently living in PA, but I'm planning to move back once I retire. Cabo Rojo is beautiful, so are so many other places around the island. Welcome, and how we all say "Mi casa es su casa" God bless you....
Jen, I liked how good you talk about the island. I had to move to mainland to get better job opportunities but now that I can work remotely , I'm planning to go back to where I was born. Btw I noticed is not so mobile friendly but you can read San Juan Star online. Is an english newspaper. I loved the part when you were asked if you'd leave PR after Maria. And you said "this is my home 🏡" 🤩
Best wishes for your move home! I end up checking about 8 different new sources (English and Spanish) to keep up with current events in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean.
Hi Jen, and Thanks for the videos. I always find them very educational and very entertaining, would like to see more of the scuba diving. My wife and I bought a house in Palmas two years ago and we are having to wait to have enough to retire there, my business is not one I can move or operate from there and once I retie I am not planning on working anymore. The one thing that brought PR to my attention was a story on how few shark attacks PR has had, your story sounds very similar to ours. Also, like the videos of you and Isis, you both are so funny.
Jen, social media will have to come up with a better term than "Influencer" to describe you. I could have said, "People like you," but there aren't any others like you that I've seen. Your genuine-ness and your kindness come through so clearly, and your drive to inform others is truly remarkable. The way that you intertwine facts and data, along with your own experiences and perspective, is useful for viewers with varied interests and personal prerequisites. Watching your videos and learning from you has been the most comprehensive introduction to Puerto Rico that I can possibly imagine -- short of actually living there of course. Last but not least, you seem humble, or at least very appreciative of your own blessed good fortune to live and work in Puerto Rico. You also appreciate the good that you see in others who live there. Thanks for what you do. God Bless.
Nice video Jen. I’ll be visiting my family in June for about a month (I’m recently retired) and hopefully relocating to the Island in a year or so to a house my BF owns in Carolina. And yes. Us Puertoricans are very friendly, family oriented and our hospitality is amazing 💖
Enjoy your video!! I use to live in PR for 8 years my dad was in the USCG, lived in San Juan for 4 years & Ceiba Roosevelt Roads Naval Base 4 years in the 1980's. Dad spoke both Spanish & English & mom bilingual from Panama. We loved living in PR, snorkeling, actually did swim with the sharks never a problem. Their is so much history and beautiful architectural buildings in old San Juan and the amazing rain forest. Your video brought back great memories and yes the people are very caring. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
We're visiting finally in May! Can't wait to see la isla bonita. Watching your videos have definitely helped us make the decision to visit and ultimately decide on moving there.
Love your videos. Like you we love the Puerto Rican people. We have been visiting regularly for about 6 years. Traveled most of the island. Enjoy Old San Juan, but also Boqueron. A relocation may be in the future. Enjoy the news, travel info during covid and the new places to explore.
😂 Puerto Rican directions are the worst learned my lesson really fast. I love my island no matter all its issues.❤❤🇵🇷🇵🇷 Thank you for representing PR and yes you are family.
I have used the hospital emergency room for a dog bite and was surprised that the service was excellent and fast. Only two hours there compared to the state great doctors.
I going down for a month visit or so. II plan to look at houses for sale. I have GI eligibility for house. I am retired but may be looking for a business opportunity. I wonder why solar energy is not widespread .. Looks like a perfect application.
@@swvaroot Solar energy is widespread. On our street of ten homes in Barceloneta seven homes have roofs covered with solar panels. If you are purchasing, be prepared for a lengthily closing. It took nine month's for us to close on a new construction home with 75% cash down. After five months I got so frustrated I went behind Banco Popular/ Popular Mtg's back and offered the developer 100% cash. It did nothing to speed up the process. We still had to wait for building inspections, electric inspections, water inspections.
Thank you Jen. I'm looking forward to the next video that comparison will be very beneficial to me. I'm so glad that you feel the way you feel about living in Puerto Rico and wish you the best on your journey. Your are an awesome person. Stay safe and keep enjoying Puerto Rico.
Thanks Jen for all those beautiful words you said about us. I lived in New York and North Carolina and I kiss my Island so I came back about a year ago and I'm happy as can be. I just love my island.
Thank you for all of the informative videos. I moved to Palmas one year ago and they have been very helpful in getting to know the island in a variety of ways. I do look forward to the Palmas, west coast cost of living comparison and all of the others you will post going forward.
Lares is the birth place of Puerto Rico's independence movement. Don't believe the PNP all they do is lie. kindly vote with the sovereignty of PR in mind.
I’m on of the few “20-30” years old range. I’m 24, and I’ve been following you ever since Maria happen. I was born in Ponce but definitely don’t know anything about the island, and you definitely have help me a lot. Which I appreciate it ♥️ Many blessings
Thank you deeply Jen for all your posts. Wonderfully refreshing and insightful. I just moved to Puerto Rico from California. Your informative sharing made my move smooth. Thank you !!
Hey Jen! In June I will be celebrating my 5th year here in PR too! I moved here because my mom and dad had become I'll. I could not find a job in my field and had gone back to college, got a degree in Nursing and obtained my license too within the year I was here, in the middle of it had Hurricane Maria, then came de earthquakes and Covid-19. But I love the Island, love your videos and they are so helpful and encouraging. Thanks for sharing all these great places and information! Keep up the good work!👏👏👏👍 God Bless you!
My childhood in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 Rico was mesmorizing,at first,coming from the U.S.I felt alienated, and the local kids kept me in great Martial Art shape,but that all changed for the better, I've missed her since the very day I left,I also rode horses from sun-up to sun-down every weekend and as a child was never ever desrespected, quite the contrary, the indigenous people I would come across in the wilderness were always polite and caring ❤ my heart goes out to my Island,thank you Jen,you've just become a keeper of the flame
I really enjoy your information. I was back home (PR) last week with friends and family and your videos helped me pass the Covid restrictions to my english speaking friends and we were able to complete the process smoothly. I've been living outside of PR for over 30 yrs. and now we're thinking of buying a home as an investment since we've been traveling back yearly since 2019. Best to you, Wepa!
You are an amazing person!!! Thanks for making this small island your home! We’re so happy you like the country and the people. I wish the best of your life is ahead of you! Thanks for the great words about the country. Have fun!!
Hi Jen! I'm planning to move back to PR next year. After living in the US since 1992 it is a little be scary move back, but your videos had helped me make my decision. By the way I will be moving to the west side of the island. I really appreciate you and thanks for all your videos. We consider you as another Boricua.
Antonio, deciding to move back to the Island is a matter of trade-offs, depending on what you value the most. For instance, depending on where you have lived, you now have a good idea of what it means to pay taxes and have efficient public services. However, if you miss and crave a sense of community, hospitality, and warmth, then the West Coast is the place for you, regardless of how bad the public services for electricity, water, and healthcare. I wish you the best. Greeting from Washington, DC.
@@albertoluyando8292 Hi Alberto! I really appreciate your comment. You're absolutely right, what you value the most is what really matter. At this point of my life I'm looking forward to live in the country side and have the experience to work in a farm. We have a couple of acres in Mayaguez and thinking to initiate my own business. I am very excited and with a desire of "Poner mi granito de arena" to help the island economy and the people.
Jen, I have lived on a sailboat in Puerto Rico since 2/1/20. We moved from Fajardo to San Juan March 14,2020. March 15th was the day the island shut down for COVID. I love it here! I love the people and the culture. I love that the question people ask is “What have you some fun this week?” I want to thank you for your video on your surgery. I broke my humerus head into 3 pieces March 9, 2021. I watched your video and decided to have surgery here. Everyone was great! I’m so glad I did! I’m still recovering with Physical Therapy but I’m loving being here. We now live in Fajardo in Pena Mar. We moved off the boat so that we could put the boat to work in charter. We enjoy your videos! Keep them coming!
You have instantly become my #1 subscription. I was so emotional about your video, that I couldn't hold my tears. So now you know what it feels to be Puerto Rican, the pride, the emotional feeling, spirit and the people. I been in FL for 41 yrs and I miss the island every day. Check out the new cave 700ft above ground, cool experience, but not yet opened, it has a new boardwalk that leads to the cave.
Thank you Jen for sharing your experiences! myself and my partner are currently planning on moving to Puerto Rico. I just got offered a position at a startup with the ability to work fully remote and we would like to fulfill our dream of moving to an island! your videos are extremely informative and appreciate your insight!
I’m new to your channel and so grateful for the information your sharing about Puerto Rico. I have strongly considered moving to over there yet I had so many questions that you seem to be answering for me. I love your spirit, honesty and the fact that your sharing your experience. Thank you so much I appreciate you
Jen, you are very observant. Each region of the island has a different culture and way of life. The fact that you said this is home in the good and in the bad times makes you a boricua in my book. Friends are truly family! there are many things we need to improve but you have a great attitude. Keep learning and sharing. Thank you ❣️
Best story about how good Puerto Rico and their people are I've heard in many years...you're in Paradise Island. Thank you for bringing up how beautiful our coquis sing at night.
It would be cool to see in the future more exploration vlogs, like caving exploration, hiking and such, keep up the great work! I can't personally wait to come to the paradise island
Hi Jen Just watch your video of my beautiful island 🏝💙 is a unique Gem of the Caribbean..I left the island long time ago and grew up in Jersey..But you are right about the beautiful people of Puerto Rico 🇵🇷🇺🇲 they are friendly and treats everyone as family..Glad you are enjoying this Enchanted Island which is your home now. Thank you so much for sharing your videos with us at the Mainland 🇺🇸
Thank you so much for your perspective. I haven't decided yet to actually move there but there is a big chance since my boyfriend is from there and would love to experience the island. This video is very reassuring
Wow, How nice you see our island like that. So glad that you post this so other people around the world can see how our tiny island is. 5 years and even you stay means You are a true puertorrican. WEPAAAS!!! VIVA MI BORINQUEN!!!
Thank you so much for sharing your life on Puerto Rico with us! My husband and I are planning on moving there in the next couple of years from Washington state ( Orcas Island, in the San Juan islands). AND- we are your age too😁!
@@jesusjesus534 The native culture has not being destroyed by Americans, but by people like you. Who told you that she does not speak Spanish if the video is in English?
Is nothing like Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 it makes me happy when visitors like the Puerto Rico Caribbean Islands keep up the great work you do advertising the beauty of the Islands 🏝
I lived in Israel 5 years and am all acquainted with the scenario on different then USA type convenience modernizations. I loved it , everything . To live there sounds kind of fun and I would prefer a small place out of city where I can have my garden and grow most my own foods etc. Can live ;legally anyplace , doesn’t need to be modern or nice.
WOW Five years, that's awesome. Whenever we would go on vacation we would go to Boqueron and the first thing on my list was a mofongo relleno de langosta at what's now Pelican's. Love your videos but they make me miss my island so much. Keep up the good work and you look as gorgeous as ever.
Hey Jen. My family is from Puerto Rico. My aunt uncle and dad live there. My mom has been in the states for decades now. I remember growing up there. Life was awesome. Now, my husband and I are selling our home in Long Island NY. We expect to be fully living there by end of Summer. Your videos have inspired me. I'm very happy to know that our little island and wonderful people have made such an impact on you. Thank you for being part of our culture and family...you have a lot to offer. I am teaching Spanish to people on the island so that it's easier for them to navigate. At the moment I do it through zoom. Once in puerto rico I plan on teaching it in person. I know that there's a very real need. Let me know how I can help. We will be there mid June to visit family and continue our talks with Realtors. It would be awesome if we can meet up. Keep up the good work and God bless.:)
We bought a house on Cabo Rojo six years ago.... Hello neighbor! We will be finally moving down full time in September when I retire from the Navy. I have enjoyed your videos, thanks for everything. We vacationed and fell in love with PR. Every time we visited somthing lured us to the West! We live close to Boqueron and have more "family" there then in the states. Once again, thanks for everything you do....
No me hables de los peces, estás en un área donde viven los pudientes,ricos,hablame de los huracanes,terremotos,tormentas que son la realidad de la isla hablas bonito llevo 50 años aquí y no he vivido nunca en esa área privilegiada dónde tú vives si la verdad se va la luz todos los días,no te pasa a tí eres afortunada el agua también se va que bueno te ha gustado vivir aquí
Great recap. Happy 5 year Puertoricanniversary! You definitely have become an English news source for the covid restrictions for many people. You are right that each person has a unique perspective on living here. Perhaps showing a little more of your daily life would be interesting to some esp those looking into gated-community living. On our channel we try to showcase our Puerto Rico farm, internal tourism and our adventure-lifestyle and people seem to enjoy it. De nuevo, felicidades!
Love the fact that you are so happy in Puerto Rico and having a great experience, Puerto Rico is beautiful and the people is amazing, I am from Isabela and will move back next year after 22 years in the US. ❤🇵🇷❤
Well let me start by saying Thank You, Thank You ,Thank You !! You have been so informative concerning everything from flying to the Island and touring the island. Last year in July we went to Puerto Rico stayed 2 weeks for our 23rd Wedding Anniversary and visit my family. We stayed in Ponce 1st , then ended vacation staying at Isla Verde side. Because of your videos about the island we visited 22 cities hitting all the beautiful spots and must visit parts of Puerto Rico. My wife was so surprised, asking how did you know about all these places ? I told her "Jen" invited us... Thank you Jen , I meant to send you this sooner. Now this July we are planning another trip there. Best Wishes , Stay Safe, and thank you also for your travel updates. Andrew Rodriguez.
As always our dear Jen, we love watching your videos and what I mostly love is when you say “Puerto Rico” it just sounds so sweet. I’m 54 and would love to one day move there. My daughter has been living in PR for the past year and a half. She is actually doing her Medical rotations in San Juan/Ponce. My husband and I visited the island a couple of times since she moved there and I just LOVE it. I would like to make a move but I just feel like I’m stock where I am. I love my house/home in the US and I think that is part of it. If I could fold it (house and land) and be able to ship it, I think I would lol 😂 Any suggestions for someone like me? 🤦🏻♀️🥰...Stay safe.
We have many snowbirds that split their time in PR and the States, but I suspect you might end up a year round resident of Puerto Rico. The island steal your heart!
I really enjoy your videos. I will be coming there in June and hopefully moving there in September. Keep making these great videos. They really help to know what is going on there.
Wow! You are such a nice person. I am puertorican and love Puero Rico. Your words are so kind. If all puertoricans have the love and passion for our country that you have, this would be a much better place. I have lived most of my life here in Puerto Rico, I have worked in all over US in the past and I am now planning to move for a year to another country just for a change and to "see" the world but I will come back to PR for sure. Your channel is great. Hearing you talking about hurricane Maria and the resilient people gave me some hope in humanity again. I left facebook because of the bad comments that our own people write and the politics. Wish you the best!
Hi, Jen, from Michigan. I had noticed your videos on my Google feed and finally caught the bait. I am glad I did! Moving to Palmas sight unseen makes sense for a state-side person going over to PR the first time. But, the West coast is my favorite, too. Cabo Rojo, Lajas, San German, Mayaguez, Rincon. Of course, Old San Juan deserves a whole day and night, if not 2. Oh, and Barranquitas. I must go soon. Sorry that I am out of topic but I miss it. And my extended family. Left in '86 to get a master's degree and decided to stay here "for five years". 30 years past the due date, here I am. Now, back to the topic. After your video and your reminder about the tax incentives, I may end up back on the island sooner rather than later. Thank you very much for these videos! Next will be the home buying video!
Wow! Very impresive of making that leap. Puerto Rico is a beautiful island I agree. I currently live on the south side of the Island , which is very relax and lay back,....but beutiful too. ...Very happy for you.....take care and continue to give your perspective on the Island. We all learn something knew.God bless and keep up the good work🙏🌴
Jen, you're a wonderful, approachable person and we adore you! We just made the move to the island and your videos were a huge help (A Big Thank You) - please know we consider you a part of our family.
Thank you for sharing your story. I live in N.J. but I have a home in Luquillo and love it! I'm looking forward to your cost of living comparison, Palmas vs. Cabo Rojo and also how the western part of the island differs from the East and which do you prefer. Thank you so much for sharing!
I’m so glad that someone like you have all these beautiful things about our Island. I’ve met lots of people that are constantly complaining about the government and the way they rob the money and keep it to themselves and don’t do anything to fix the roads etc etc. I say I doesn’t matter where you go, if you’re looking for something negative you’ll definitely find it. Do like John Kennedy said‘Don’t ask what the country can do for you, ask what can you do for your country.’
@@JenThereDoneThat I was born in Mayaguez PR. Raised till the age of 9 raised in New York. Now I’m 60 moved back to Puerto Rico to retire and take care of my folks who happened to live in Boquerón. My wife and need friends. I’d like to know if we can be friends.

Thank you so much. It's awesome to hear a non native person talk so many nice things about our island. I'm currently living in PA, but I'm planning to move back once I retire. Cabo Rojo is beautiful, so are so many other places around the island.
Welcome, and how we all say "Mi casa es su casa"
God bless you....
Wonderful! Thank you for watching and the kind words.
This lady is promoting a tax Act 20/22 that it is going to destroyed our citizen.
@@ivonnepr9787 No estoy acuerdo contigo.
welcome sister , yes you are our family , God bless you we love you.....
Jen, I liked how good you talk about the island. I had to move to mainland to get better job opportunities but now that I can work remotely , I'm planning to go back to where I was born. Btw I noticed is not so mobile friendly but you can read San Juan Star online. Is an english newspaper.
I loved the part when you were asked if you'd leave PR after Maria. And you said "this is my home 🏡" 🤩
Best wishes for your move home! I end up checking about 8 different new sources (English and Spanish) to keep up with current events in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean.
Hi Jen, and Thanks for the videos. I always find them very educational and very entertaining, would like to see more of the scuba diving. My wife and I bought a house in Palmas two years ago and we are having to wait to have enough to retire there, my business is not one I can move or operate from there and once I retie I am not planning on working anymore. The one thing that brought PR to my attention was a story on how few shark attacks PR has had, your story sounds very similar to ours. Also, like the videos of you and Isis, you both are so funny.
Thanks, I see more scuba diving in my future!
Am getting close Jen 4 more months moving to Añasco can’t wait. Great job as always
Best wishes for your move! Thanks for watching and I am glad it is helpful.
Great video, and congratulations on your 5years on the island
Jen, social media will have to come up with a better term than "Influencer" to describe you. I could have said, "People like you," but there aren't any others like you that I've seen. Your genuine-ness and your kindness come through so clearly, and your drive to inform others is truly remarkable. The way that you intertwine facts and data, along with your own experiences and perspective, is useful for viewers with varied interests and personal prerequisites. Watching your videos and learning from you has been the most comprehensive introduction to Puerto Rico that I can possibly imagine -- short of actually living there of course. Last but not least, you seem humble, or at least very appreciative of your own blessed good fortune to live and work in Puerto Rico. You also appreciate the good that you see in others who live there. Thanks for what you do. God Bless.
Thank you! Your words are of the highest compliment, I truly appreciate your views.
Nice video Jen. I’ll be visiting my family in June for about a month (I’m recently retired) and hopefully relocating to the Island in a year or so to a house my BF owns in Carolina. And yes. Us Puertoricans are very friendly, family oriented and our hospitality is amazing 💖
Thank you, glad you like it!
Enjoy your video!! I use to live in PR for 8 years my dad was in the USCG, lived in San Juan for 4 years & Ceiba Roosevelt Roads Naval Base 4 years in the 1980's. Dad spoke both Spanish & English & mom bilingual from Panama. We loved living in PR, snorkeling, actually did swim with the sharks never a problem. Their is so much history and beautiful architectural buildings in old San Juan and the amazing rain forest. Your video brought back great memories and yes the people are very caring. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
We're visiting finally in May! Can't wait to see la isla bonita. Watching your videos have definitely helped us make the decision to visit and ultimately decide on moving there.
Hope you enjoy it! I am glad these have been helpful! Be sure to subscribe and hit the notifications so you don't miss any new videos.
Love your videos. Like you we love the Puerto Rican people. We have been visiting regularly for about 6 years. Traveled most of the island. Enjoy Old San Juan, but also Boqueron. A relocation may be in the future. Enjoy the news, travel info during covid and the new places to explore.
Thanks for sharing!!
😂 Puerto Rican directions are the worst learned my lesson really fast. I love my island no matter all its issues.❤❤🇵🇷🇵🇷 Thank you for representing PR and yes you are family.
Gracias, mi familia.
I have used the hospital emergency room for a dog bite and was surprised that the service was excellent and fast. Only two hours there compared to the state great doctors.
I going down for a month visit or so. II plan to look at houses for sale. I have GI eligibility for house. I am retired but may be looking for a business opportunity. I wonder why solar energy is not widespread .. Looks like a perfect application.
@@swvaroot Solar energy is widespread. On our street of ten homes in Barceloneta seven homes have roofs covered with solar panels. If you are purchasing, be prepared for a lengthily closing. It took nine month's for us to close on a new construction home with 75% cash down. After five months I got so frustrated I went behind Banco Popular/ Popular Mtg's back and offered the developer 100% cash. It did nothing to speed up the process. We still had to wait for building inspections, electric inspections, water inspections.
Thanks for sharing. I am glad it was a good experience!
Thanks Jen! Really appreciate you taking the time to keep up with all that is going on and posting it!!
You are so welcome! Thanks for the kind words.
Jen love to have persons such as YOU movin down here with us in our Beautiful Islands Puerto Rico 🙏🏾🇺🇸🇵🇷💞🤠👍🏾 Blessings from Carolina 🙏🏾
Great video love all your videos my mom and dad are from PR
That's awesome! I am glad you like them.
Thank you Jen. I'm looking forward to the next video that comparison will be very beneficial to me. I'm so glad that you feel the way you feel about living in Puerto Rico and wish you the best on your journey. Your are an awesome person. Stay safe and keep enjoying Puerto Rico.
You are so welcome! More videos coming soon.
Thanks Jen for all those beautiful words you said about us. I lived in New York and North Carolina and I kiss my Island so I came back about a year ago and I'm happy as can be. I just love my island.
You are so welcome! I am so glad we can be neighbors. Welcome back to your island.
Thank you for all of the informative videos. I moved to Palmas one year ago and they have been very helpful in getting to know the island in a variety of ways. I do look forward to the Palmas, west coast cost of living comparison and all of the others you will post going forward.
Hello from Lares!.. So true about everything you said....Finally moved here a year and a half ago and there is still no place better. ❤🇵🇷❤
Lares is the birth place of Puerto Rico's independence movement. Don't believe the PNP all they do is lie. kindly vote with the sovereignty of PR in mind.
Hola neighbor!
I’m on of the few “20-30” years old range. I’m 24, and I’ve been following you ever since Maria happen.
I was born in Ponce but definitely don’t know anything about the island, and you definitely have help me a lot. Which I appreciate it ♥️
Many blessings
All ages welcome!
thank you so much jen . appreciate this . im puerto rican trying to move there and your videos make my dream feel reachable !
You can do it! Glad these are helpful.
jentheredonethat.com/moving-to-puerto-rico-start-here/
Thank you deeply Jen for all your posts. Wonderfully refreshing and insightful. I just moved to Puerto Rico from California. Your informative sharing made my move smooth. Thank you !!
Iam excited about the move. Let the adventure begin!
Hey Jen! In June I will be celebrating my 5th year here in PR too! I moved here because my mom and dad had become I'll. I could not find a job in my field and had gone back to college, got a degree in Nursing and obtained my license too within the year I was here, in the middle of it had Hurricane Maria, then came de earthquakes and Covid-19. But I love the Island, love your videos and they are so helpful and encouraging. Thanks for sharing all these great places and information! Keep up the good work!👏👏👏👍 God Bless you!
I am so glad we have you as a Nurse, we need more of you! Thanks for watching.
I love your videos and I’m glad that you are enjoying our Island! Mi casa es tu casa! ❤️
I'm glad you enjoy living here and learned spanish. Thanks for your input. Its good to hear your opinion. Enjoy!
I am glad you like it. Thanks for watching.
I love your videos Jen!!! Thank you!!!
You are so welcome!
We need more people like you to come to live in Puerto Rico.
Muchas Gracias!
Jen, yes that is your island. We are friendly, we are what you mention in this video. Thanks for video. Regards from New Jersey !
Hola New Jersey! Thanks for watching.
My childhood in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 Rico was mesmorizing,at first,coming from the U.S.I felt alienated, and the local kids kept me in great Martial Art shape,but that all changed for the better, I've missed her since the very day I left,I also rode horses from sun-up to sun-down every weekend and as a child was never ever desrespected, quite the contrary, the indigenous people I would come across in the wilderness were always polite and caring ❤ my heart goes out to my Island,thank you Jen,you've just become a keeper of the flame
I will keep the flame burning, thank you for words of encouragement.
I really enjoy your information. I was back home (PR) last week with friends and family and your videos helped me pass the Covid restrictions to my english speaking friends and we were able to complete the process smoothly. I've been living outside of PR for over 30 yrs. and now we're thinking of buying a home as an investment since we've been traveling back yearly since 2019. Best to you, Wepa!
Thanks for sharing! I am glad you had a nice visit. So happy this was helpful!
Hello there. What a great video today.Thank you for sharing it with all of us. 💕
Glad you enjoyed it!
You are an amazing person!!! Thanks for making this small island your home! We’re so happy you like the country and the people. I wish the best of your life is ahead of you! Thanks for the great words about the country. Have fun!!
Hi Jen! I'm planning to move back to PR next year. After living in the US since 1992 it is a little be scary move back, but your videos had helped me make my decision. By the way I will be moving to the west side of the island. I really appreciate you and thanks for all your videos. We consider you as another Boricua.
The west side is great, you are going to love it! Here is a helpful guide for your move jentheredonethat.com/moving-to-puerto-rico-start-here/
Antonio, deciding to move back to the Island is a matter of trade-offs, depending on what you value the most. For instance, depending on where you have lived, you now have a good idea of what it means to pay taxes and have efficient public services. However, if you miss and crave a sense of community, hospitality, and warmth, then the West Coast is the place for you, regardless of how bad the public services for electricity, water, and healthcare. I wish you the best. Greeting from Washington, DC.
@@albertoluyando8292 Hi Alberto! I really appreciate your comment. You're absolutely right, what you value the most is what really matter. At this point of my life I'm looking forward to live in the country side and have the experience to work in a farm. We have a couple of acres in Mayaguez and thinking to initiate my own business. I am very excited and with a desire of "Poner mi granito de arena" to help the island economy and the people.
I feel the same way, but we are from the island and i think it should be easy to adjust.
@@JenThereDoneThat thank you very much
Thanks so much for all the information been watching your videos and learn more about Puerto Rico ,visiting on May 3 for the first time and excited ,
Glad it was helpful! Safe travels
Awesome video. I proclaim you an official "Boricua".
Super! Muchas Gracias!!!!
I like it when you say "we have ..." so it means you feel part of our pack now
Jen, I have lived on a sailboat in Puerto Rico since 2/1/20. We moved from Fajardo to San Juan March 14,2020. March 15th was the day the island shut down for COVID. I love it here! I love the people and the culture. I love that the question people ask is “What have you some fun this week?” I want to thank you for your video on your surgery. I broke my humerus head into 3 pieces March 9, 2021. I watched your video and decided to have surgery here. Everyone was great! I’m so glad I did! I’m still recovering with Physical Therapy but I’m loving being here. We now live in Fajardo in Pena Mar. We moved off the boat so that we could put the boat to work in charter. We enjoy your videos! Keep them coming!
Surgery is always scary, I am glad that you had a good experience on the island. I am glad your recovery is going well and my video was helpful.
You have instantly become my #1 subscription. I was so emotional about your video, that I couldn't hold my tears. So now you know what it feels to be Puerto Rican, the pride, the emotional feeling, spirit and the people. I been in FL for 41 yrs and I miss the island every day. Check out the new cave 700ft above ground, cool experience, but not yet opened, it has a new boardwalk that leads to the cave.
Thank you for the kind words. I am going to check out the cave as soon as I am fully vaccinated!
Thank you Jen for sharing your experiences! myself and my partner are currently planning on moving to Puerto Rico. I just got offered a position at a startup with the ability to work fully remote and we would like to fulfill our dream of moving to an island! your videos are extremely informative and appreciate your insight!
Good luck!!
We appreciate you, Jen!!! 👏 Glad you are enjoying the island! It’s America the beautiful in the Caribbean! ☺️
Gracias!
I’m new to your channel and so grateful for the information your sharing about Puerto Rico. I have strongly considered moving to over there yet I had so many questions that you seem to be answering for me. I love your spirit, honesty and the fact that your sharing your experience. Thank you so much I appreciate you
Jen, you are very observant. Each region of the island has a different culture and way of life. The fact that you said this is home in the good and in the bad times makes you a boricua in my book. Friends are truly family! there are many things we need to improve but you have a great attitude. Keep learning and sharing. Thank you ❣️
Thank you for the kind word neighbor!
Another wonderful, positive, sincere video from Jen, thank you. Jen is certainly living her best live in our beautiful island. Blessings! 🙏🏻👏🏼👍🇵🇷❤️🌺
Gracias!
Best story about how good Puerto Rico and their people are I've heard in many years...you're in Paradise Island. Thank you for bringing up how beautiful our coquis sing at night.
Gracias!
It would be cool to see in the future more exploration vlogs, like caving exploration, hiking and such, keep up the great work! I can't personally wait to come to the paradise island
Yes, more coming soon! Check out my other videos for scuba diving, secret beaches, hiking, and more adventures!
Hi Jen
Just watch your video of my beautiful island 🏝💙 is a unique Gem of the Caribbean..I left the island long time ago and grew up in Jersey..But you are right about the beautiful people of Puerto Rico 🇵🇷🇺🇲 they are friendly and treats everyone as family..Glad you are enjoying this Enchanted Island which is your home now. Thank you so much for sharing your videos with us at the Mainland 🇺🇸
I am glad you like it. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Love your comments! 💕
Thank you so much for your perspective. I haven't decided yet to actually move there but there is a big chance since my boyfriend is from there and would love to experience the island. This video is very reassuring
Thank you for saying great things about my people
It makes me emotional how you speak of the island and our people. I agree 100% and wish more saw the beauties of it as you do.
Gracias
Wow, How nice you see our island like that. So glad that you post this so other people around the world can see how our tiny island is. 5 years and even you stay means You are a true puertorrican. WEPAAAS!!! VIVA MI BORINQUEN!!!
Gracias, mi neighbor!
I’m moving back after 26yrs at the end of the year I can’t wait watching this video 🇵🇷🇵🇷❤️❤️🙏🏼
Yay! Best wishes for your move home!
@@JenThereDoneThat thanks 🙏🏼
Hi Jen, really enjoyed the video. Thanks very much .
Thank you so much for sharing your life on Puerto Rico with us! My husband and I are planning on moving there in the next couple of years from Washington state ( Orcas Island, in the San Juan islands). AND- we are your age too😁!
Learn Spanish and assimilate to the culture. PR ain’t like Hawaii. Where the native culture has been destroyed by American “mainlanders”
That is a big change! This may help with the planning process - jentheredonethat.com/moving-to-puerto-rico-start-here/
We are planning on letting go and being immersed in the culture, we want to be part of it an feel like we belong❤️
@@jesusjesus534 The native culture has not being destroyed by Americans, but by people like you. Who told you that she does not speak Spanish if the video is in English?
Is nothing like Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 it makes me happy when visitors like the Puerto Rico Caribbean Islands keep up the great work you do advertising the beauty of the Islands 🏝
We welcome you to Puerto Rico
You are awesome thank u for talking about my beautiful island that way
I lived in Israel 5 years and am all acquainted with the scenario on different then USA type convenience modernizations. I loved it , everything .
To live there sounds kind of fun and I would prefer a small place out of city where I can have my garden and grow most my own foods etc. Can live ;legally anyplace , doesn’t need to be modern or nice.
Living outside of the city is very nice, plenty of places perfect for a home garden!
WOW Five years, that's awesome. Whenever we would go on vacation we would go to Boqueron and the first thing on my list was a mofongo relleno de langosta at what's now Pelican's. Love your videos but they make me miss my island so much. Keep up the good work and you look as gorgeous as ever.
Awe, thanks!
Hey Jen. My family is from Puerto Rico. My aunt uncle and dad live there. My mom has been in the states for decades now. I remember growing up there. Life was awesome. Now, my husband and I are selling our home in Long Island NY. We expect to be fully living there by end of Summer. Your videos have inspired me. I'm very happy to know that our little island and wonderful people have made such an impact on you. Thank you for being part of our culture and family...you have a lot to offer. I am teaching Spanish to people on the island so that it's easier for them to navigate. At the moment I do it through zoom. Once in puerto rico I plan on teaching it in person. I know that there's a very real need. Let me know how I can help. We will be there mid June to visit family and continue our talks with Realtors. It would be awesome if we can meet up. Keep up the good work and God bless.:)
Welcome back to your island! Many of the new residents are eager to learn Spanish, or to simply improve. Best wishes for your move.
Gracias Por Elegir A Nuestra Isla De Techo 🙏🏻 Ya Eres Parte De Nosotros ☺️❤️🇵🇷🙏🏻
We bought a house on Cabo Rojo six years ago.... Hello neighbor! We will be finally moving down full time in September when I retire from the Navy. I have enjoyed your videos, thanks for everything. We vacationed and fell in love with PR. Every time we visited somthing lured us to the West! We live close to Boqueron and have more "family" there then in the states. Once again, thanks for everything you do....
Hi neighbor! We live very close by.
Thanks you are part of the puertorican family
Muchas Gracias!!!
No me hables de los peces, estás en un área donde viven los pudientes,ricos,hablame de los huracanes,terremotos,tormentas que son la realidad de la isla hablas bonito llevo 50 años aquí y no he vivido nunca en esa área privilegiada dónde tú vives si la verdad se va la luz todos los días,no te pasa a tí eres afortunada el agua también se va que bueno te ha gustado vivir aquí
@@magdalugo5920 y que tiene hay paises en peores conditiones que PR y deje de criticar
Great recap. Happy 5 year Puertoricanniversary! You definitely have become an English news source for the covid restrictions for many people. You are right that each person has a unique perspective on living here. Perhaps showing a little more of your daily life would be interesting to some esp those looking into gated-community living. On our channel we try to showcase our Puerto Rico farm, internal tourism and our adventure-lifestyle and people seem to enjoy it. De nuevo, felicidades!
Yes! Thank you!
Love the fact that you are so happy in Puerto Rico and having a great experience, Puerto Rico is beautiful and the people is amazing, I am from Isabela and will move back next year after 22 years in the US. ❤🇵🇷❤
Isabela is lovely!! What are your favorite spots there?
so grateful for all these!
So glad you like them!
Well let me start by saying Thank You, Thank You ,Thank You !! You have been so informative concerning everything from flying to the Island and touring the island. Last year in July we went to Puerto Rico stayed 2 weeks for our 23rd Wedding Anniversary and visit my family. We stayed in Ponce 1st , then ended vacation staying at Isla Verde side. Because of your videos about the island we visited 22 cities hitting all the beautiful spots and must visit parts of Puerto Rico. My wife was so surprised, asking how did you know about all these places ? I told her "Jen" invited us... Thank you Jen , I meant to send you this sooner. Now this July we are planning another trip there. Best Wishes , Stay Safe, and thank you also for your travel updates. Andrew Rodriguez.
Yay!! I am so glad you like the recommendations! I am happy to be part of your travel plans.
Thank you for your beautiful words. I moved here 9 years ago! I just love it
Glad you enjoy it!
Palmas del mar is so beautiful a nice place for outdoor sports
Totally agree!
As always our dear Jen, we love watching your videos and what I mostly love is when you say “Puerto Rico” it just sounds so sweet. I’m 54 and would love to one day move there. My daughter has been living in PR for the past year and a half. She is actually doing her Medical rotations in San Juan/Ponce. My husband and I visited the island a couple of times since she moved there and I just LOVE it. I would like to make a move but I just feel like I’m stock where I am. I love my house/home in the US and I think that is part of it. If I could fold it (house and land) and be able to ship it, I think I would lol 😂
Any suggestions for someone like me? 🤦🏻♀️🥰...Stay safe.
We have many snowbirds that split their time in PR and the States, but I suspect you might end up a year round resident of Puerto Rico. The island steal your heart!
Welcome to our island!! 🇵🇷 ❤ 🇵🇷
La isla del Encanto!!
Gracias!!
Looking forward to hearing the Cabo Rojo & Palmas comparison : )
I'm glad things are going well, really cool life as part of your journey. Very insightful video. Keep up the good work!
I really enjoy your videos. I will be coming there in June and hopefully moving there in September. Keep making these great videos. They really help to know what is going on there.
Awesome! Thank you!
Wow! You are such a nice person. I am puertorican and love Puero Rico. Your words are so kind. If all puertoricans have the love and passion for our country that you have, this would be a much better place. I have lived most of my life here in Puerto Rico, I have worked in all over US in the past and I am now planning to move for a year to another country just for a change and to "see" the world but I will come back to PR for sure. Your channel is great. Hearing you talking about hurricane Maria and the resilient people gave me some hope in humanity again. I left facebook because of the bad comments that our own people write and the politics. Wish you the best!
Enjoy your travels, Puerto Rico is waiting for you when you return!
I be in Puerto rico next month
Hope to see you in the island
Hi, Jen, from Michigan. I had noticed your videos on my Google feed and finally caught the bait. I am glad I did! Moving to Palmas sight unseen makes sense for a state-side person going over to PR the first time. But, the West coast is my favorite, too. Cabo Rojo, Lajas, San German, Mayaguez, Rincon. Of course, Old San Juan deserves a whole day and night, if not 2. Oh, and Barranquitas. I must go soon. Sorry that I am out of topic but I miss it. And my extended family. Left in '86 to get a master's degree and decided to stay here "for five years". 30 years past the due date, here I am. Now, back to the topic. After your video and your reminder about the tax incentives, I may end up back on the island sooner rather than later. Thank you very much for these videos! Next will be the home buying video!
Yes, there are so many great areas around the island, each with their own cultural flavor! I hope you are able to return to your island soon!
Wow! Very impresive of making that leap. Puerto Rico is a beautiful island I agree. I currently live on the south side of the Island , which is very relax and lay back,....but beutiful too. ...Very happy for you.....take care and continue to give your perspective on the Island. We all learn something knew.God bless and keep up the good work🙏🌴
Gracias!
Good afternoon family. Thank you very much for you LOVEEEEEEEEEEE 😉👍💯❤🙏🌹
yes we are in your age range I'm looking for tranquility but be able to enjoy when i so desire.
We welcome you to Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
Gracias!
Jen, you're a wonderful, approachable person and we adore you! We just made the move to the island and your videos were a huge help (A Big Thank You) - please know we consider you a part of our family.
Yay! Thank you! I am happy to be part of the family!
I loved this! So happy you enjoy living in this beautiful island 🤍 You should visit the west side, it has amazing beaches and restaurants
I moved to Cabo Rojo full time in October, I love the West side.
Jen very nice video, L wish i still lived there😟 but very glad to see a lot of videos from Puerto Rico 😄👍🏼✌🏼
More to come! Hopefully you can live vicariously through me until you can come back.
Great video. Your attitude is positive and beautiful. I'm subscribed.
Thanks for subscribing, so glad you like the video!
Thank you for sharing your story. I live in N.J. but I have a home in Luquillo and love it! I'm looking forward to your cost of living comparison, Palmas vs. Cabo Rojo and also how the western part of the island differs from the East and which do you prefer. Thank you so much for sharing!
Thanks for watching! Glad you like it!
Awesome can’t wait for that video I like peaceful so the west end might work better for me.
Coming soon!
I’ve been watching your videos for 5 years
Thank you for being on this grand adventure with me!
I’m so glad that someone like you have all these beautiful things about our Island. I’ve met lots of people that are constantly complaining about the government and the way they rob the money and keep it to themselves and don’t do anything to fix the roads etc etc. I say I doesn’t matter where you go, if you’re looking for something negative you’ll definitely find it. Do like John Kennedy said‘Don’t ask what the country can do for you, ask what can you do for your country.’
The right attitude is the number 1 requirement for life, especially life in the Caribbean!
@@JenThereDoneThat I was born in Mayaguez PR. Raised till the age of 9 raised in New York. Now I’m 60 moved back to Puerto Rico to retire and take care of my folks who happened to live in Boquerón. My wife and need friends. I’d like to know if we can be friends.
