[QUOTE="olroadbeech, post: 2428371, member: 52145"] Yes , we have seriously thought about it. It is very doable but we would keep our home here in California . I have several books on doing this. You can check amazon. Experts suggest you do it on a trial basis . First , take a small vacation to the country of your choice. Then try a small 3-6 month rental there and get to know the place. Most of the countries Americans retire too have large American communities . You can make friends and ask questions. After a couple trials you should know if you should make the plunge. We have thought of trying Belize, Panama, Costa Rica. Even going back to South East Asia where we lived for several years in the 70's. But we would surely rent out our home here. The only thing that is stopping us is leaving family. We have children, grandchildren , and all that. I know that we could come visit a couple times a year but we are so family oriented that we see them a couple times a month now. That would be hard to change. [/QUOTE]
