About David Kafka

A very warm welcome to you from sunny Belize! My name is David Kafka and I was a Firefighter and engineer for the Mount Pleasant, South Carolina Fire Department. I enjoyed that for 12 years, then moved on to establish my landscape company in Charleston, South Carolina for 15 years. My wife, daughter and I came to Belize in February of 2006 looking for investment and vacation opportunities.  We absolutely fell in LOVE with the country, the people, the culture, and way of life.  Once I came to Belize I knew I had to move here.  My family and I have been living in Placencia Village since February 2009 and have never looked back. I volunteer with the Placencia Volunteer Fire Department and I am on the Placencia Humane Society board and The Fire Committee Board.
