About Jared Romey
(Top Expert on this page)

Expertise
I live in Puerto Rico so can answer travel related questions, as well as adapting to the local culture. I own a business in Puerto Rico, so can also answer questions related to that and similar business issues. I CANNOT answer detailed legal questions, as I have had almost no experience in this area. This includes being unable to answer questions on inheritance, trusts, probate, etc.

Experience
I have lived in Puerto Rico for 7 years, and have traveled the island (as well as surrounding islands) extensively.

Publications
Book "Speaking Boricua", 2004, about Puerto Rican spanish slang. Book "Speaking Phrases Boricua", 2005, about Puerto Rican sayings. Book "Speaking Chileno", scheduled for August 2009, about Chilean spanish slang.

Education/Credentials
Master's in International Business, with a focus in Finance and Spanish
