Since I'm from the midwest, my dream would be to stay in Jamaica for the harsh winter months of January and February. That would be ideal. Wouldn't want to live there or stay much longer than that because I always want Jamaica (Negril) to be my retreat, my "home away from home," a place to go and get away from the stresses of life. Wouldn't want to leave my family, pets, friends for longer than that, but I totally understand why people want to make paradise their "permanent" home.
