We Retired to Slow Travel: 4 Lessons From Our First Adventure
We’ve wrapped up our first adventure as retired nomads. After trading the 9-to-5 for a life of slow travel & "living like locals," we jumped into the lifestyle to see if it’s everything we hoped it would be. Spoiler alert: It’s a lot different than a vacation! In today’s video, we’re breaking down our transition into slow travel into 4 different categories. Whether you’re planning your own retirement escape or just curious about the logistics of long-term travel, we’re sharing our honest experience about what worked and what didn't. What we’re covering: • Finances: Why our money went further than expected (and why we might stop being so conservative with our budget!). • Food & Drink: The "slow food" movement is real. We discuss the cost of groceries vs. dining out and how we stay healthy on the road. • Fitness & Health: How we use our legs as our primary "vehicle" and the challenge of maintaining a workout routine without a home gym. • Fun: From DIY food tours to the "attraction anxiety" we felt in the beginning. We’re also sharing our personal Trip High and Trip Low—because it’s not always sunset views and cocktails on a beach lounger (though we did have our share of both)!
