Secret Saipan

Saipan is America's island paradise that nobody has ever heard of. We're a serene tropical island four hours by plane from Japan or Korea, and geographically closer to Beijing than to Honolulu. We have beaches like the Maldives, with prices like Oklahoma. You can get a beachfront apartment here for $500 a month, or less. You can comfortably live on $1,000 or $2,000 a month -- in a tropical beach setting better than Miami or Waikiki. There's not much information about Saipan out there, especially not in English. And a lot of what's out there focuses on tours, not on daily life. This book is your guide to Saipan, whether you want to visit or live here. It has practical on-the-ground tips about moving here, finding housing, getting around, shopping, and everything else you might need. There are also descriptions, photos, and Google Maps links and QR codes to beaches and other sites to see. Saipan is my birthplace and the island I love. I want to share it with you. Biba! (Saipanese for hooray.)
