Our featured guest on this episode is none other than Michael Cobb. After achieving remarkable success in the computer industry, he embarked on a new adventure in 1996, founding ECI Development. This visionary residential resort development company has left its mark across diverse landscapes. ECI Development is a true advocate for harmonious living, crafting tropical neighborhoods that seamlessly blend homes, condominiums, golf courses, and hotels within beachside, agricultural, and mountain settings. 

Today, Michael shares with us international moves and tells us about the new low-EMF, low-toxin home community he is building and how restrictions can help to ensure the neighborhood can remain as safe as possible in perpetuity. 

 

In this episode, you will hear: 

• How Michael made the leap from the computer industry to international development and funding.

• North American perspectives on South America - ideas and misperceptions. 

• Taking advice on travel safety from those who have been and lived there.
