What advice do overseas retirees have for others considering retiring abroad?

Answer this Question

When we asked what advice they have for others considering retiring abroad, they advised...

"Overseas retirees often advise potential retirees to research their destination deeply and in detail, learning about the culture, language, laws, health care, political stability, and other important topics that may affect their well-being. It is also important to note that many countries require long-term visas and residency permits, so prospective retirees should make sure they understand all the legal requirements. Furthermore, retirees should plan to stay connected to family and friends back home via regular trips and modern communication technologies such as Skype and email. Finally, connecting with other retirees living in the area of interest can be a great source of information and support," said another expat in Hopkins Village, Belize.

"We both love living in Belize, and our dog is very much at home. He loves swimming in the sea, as do we! Getting used to the humidity was probably the most difficult for us, but we are adapting. We especially enjoy worshipping with the local congregation led by Pastor Herdie in Hopkins Village," wrote a member who made the move to Hopkins Village, Belize.
