- The climate is Sub Tropical, so it's not blazing hot all the time.
- Bermuda has the highest level of broadband internet penetration in the World.
- You can never become a resident in Bermuda, no matter how long you stay. Only by marrying a Bermudian can you get citizenship, and even then it takes 10 years.
- Thus far there are no Brazilian Jiu Jitsu schools in Bermuda. I intend to bring them Gracie Barra Jiu Jitsu.

Just some of the pluses and minuses.
I understand the pluses of living there, but just curious (as a Canadian myself) - why do you not want to live in Canada? If I recall correctly, you've lived in Panama for a few years, right?

PS - sincere question, no BS
