Potcake Paradise: An expat experience on Green Turtle Cay, Abaco in The Bahamas out islands.

Like other island communities, many folks name their homes on Green Turtle Cay. Potcake Paradise is a dream becoming reality. We’ve purchased land in the Coco Bay area and plan to build Potcake Paradise. We’re excited to share our experiences with you as we purchase land, build our permanent residence on the island, and make GTC our home.

Our lot is the green oval on the top-down shot. The beach access is overgrown right now, but even without that…we’re 200 steps from the beach! Let’s do this!

Check out the blog below for more details. And, our post from December 12th begins our new VLOG series on Youtube.
