Shelby Smith took a six-month career break and traveled to Curaçao, a Dutch Caribbean island. Smith fell in love and moved from Portland, Oregon, to Curaçao permanently to start her family. I visited Curaçao on vacation and knew I'd be backI visited Curaçao, a Dutch Caribbean island, on vacation in 2019. Three days before I landed, the whole island went on lockdown. If you think living on a remote island would be much cheaper, think againSome living costs on the island are cheaper, but others are more expensive.
