What is it like to retire in Micronesia?

"Life for a retiree in Micronesia and its surroundings can be quite enjoyable. There is an active expat community, with many retirees from the United States, Australia, and other countries. There are plenty of cultural attractions to explore, such as the ancient ruins of Nan Madol, the traditional villages of Yap, and the beautiful beaches of Pohnpei. There are also plenty of recreational activities to enjoy, such as snorkeling, diving, fishing, and kayaking. For those looking for a more active nightlife, there are plenty of bars and restaurants to explore, as well as live music and entertainment," said a retiree who moved to Micronesia.
