"When researching where to live, consider the affordability of living in the area, the availability of medical care, and what type of lifestyle needs you have. It is important to know the laws, taxes, and cost of living before you commit to moving abroad for retirement. Research what type of retirement visas are available in the country you wish to retire in, as it will likely depend on your residence status. Don't forget to factor in climate, culture and the locals of the area. Health insurance is a must and make sure to check that you are covered abroad prior to travelling. Talk to people who have already expatriated and understand the different banking and investment options that may be available in the new country. Finally, make sure you have fun in your new adventure abroad and make the most of the experience," remarked another expat in Granada, Nicaragua.
