I am in my early 60s and retired at 53. Lots of people gave me pushback because they had difficulty grasping the concept of not working if you don’t have to. I looked at my life as stages. I earned everything I have now through a lot of hard work, but I owe it to myself to “stop and smell the roses” in my final stage of life. In my case I left the country after I retired and live in Latin America. It allowed me to get away from all the negative things happening in America while appreciating my new environment. I have yet to meet anyone who regrets retirement.

@OlivierFontenean 8 күн бұрын

Nice way to retire. For me, I believe retirees who struggle to meet their basic needs are the ones who could not accumulate enough money during their active years to meet their needs. Retirement choices determine a lot of things. My wife and I both spent same number of years in the civil service, she invested through a wealth manager and myself through the 401k. We both still earning after our retirement fund has grown way more than it would have with just the 401(k). Haha.

Most cities in Taiwan are also this affordable (< US$900/month). If you are a Caucasian, native English speaker, it's easy to find an English teaching job in Taiwan, and even their part-time position is enough to pay for your living expenses! If you don't want to teach but willing to work at restaurants, there are a few jobs in Taiwan too. Third option is to enter Taiwan as tourist, exit Taiwan every couple months before your passport's Taiwan entry stamp date, fly to somewhere close (e.g. Hong Kong, Okinawa, Palau), then return to Taiwan. Those flights are very affordable.

I started my Latin AMerican journey in Oaxaca CIty living in a nice apartment for less than $500 a month. I lived near the Walmart where there are no parks or anywhere else to go. The people in that area were not friendly, but I stayed until I could not stand the Firecrackers going off all night. I escaped to Costa Rica. Currently, I am staying at the Banana Hostel in the Candelaria de Bogota. I have a private room for about $14 a day, but I share the bathrooms and kitchen with the other guests when there are any. Ususally, I am the only one. If others come, they ususally have the dorm to themselves. I am ready to move on to another city or town in Colombia. I am thinking Medellin and then Jardin.

Well done Kristin! I traveled Egypt from Alexandria to Abu Simbel, and truthfully would NEVER have considered it to be a Nomad destination?!? (Perhaps my psyche was permanently marked by seeing that the usual method of ingress & egress for Cairo municipal transit is via bus windows. And by seeing that the best seats in 3rd class rail involved laying in the luggage racks, so that chickens did not crap on your feet. Or by having to reclaim my flip flops from a black African who was wearing mine to go to breakfast at the Cairo Youth Hostel. Or by my all time record for cheap accommodation: $1 US per nite in Aswan, although the walls were not plumb, due to a prior earthquake. Or by the macaroni & rice dinners < $ 1 US. What a place...)

Finally India made it to your list :) Since last year one can use 5G which has good speeds of above 500 Mbps on a phone and hotspot - this is for less than $7 per month :) - unlimited 5G package. One can also get classic broadband internet - here expats can take 1 Gbps speed at $50/month and Basic 100 Mbps is for around $10 per month. Travel within India for around $50-70 per one way flight normally. Lots of excellent cities outside New Delhi to visit as well: Chandigarh, Mumbai, Pune, Goa, Munnar, Dehradun, Rishikesh, and numerous others. All India cities can give you the highest affordability, especially if living outside the major metro cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata. No country is perfect, just like San Francisco you will find dirty smelly areas every now and then, however, India does beat many in terms of affordability, technology and cost of living and above all the cuisine is rated in top 5 in the world. Acceptance to LGBTQ is still a distant dream so keep a low profile if in the spectrum. Lots of love.

Muslim, so call to prayer is very load 5x per day, no public displays of affection, drinks are very expensive, so very feee bars to meet people--and mostly men, as Muslim women aren’t there. Loads, I mean loads of Chinese tourists by the bus loads that take up restaurants, cool areas, and shopping and they tend to be load and stay in their own cohort of temporary friends. I tried all, I mean all, of the coworking spaces there and I only liked one, and unfortunately there was no talking, no events, no community, etc….though great for simply working. The traffic is horrific…I wouldn’t get a scooter there as I would in other places. And, the water is not fit for swimming. The drain water from restaurants, buildings, fish markets, etc runs into the ocean. So that’s enough for the beach there. I dated a local while there and he explained to me the good and the bad--and the why’s. I do think I had an accurate experience. I’ve also been to over 60 countries, lived on 4 continents for at least a few years, and speak multiple languages, so I feel that my opinion is legit🙃👍

Guys and Gals, Please Avoid The Following Cities (you will thank me later) : Istanbul in Turkiye; too crowded and getting expensive. Delhi/New Delhi in India; too crowded, more crowded than Istanbul & New York City, a lot of air and garbage pollution, and infrastructure not good enough. Medellin in Colombia; has become less safe and more and more foreigners have been targets for theft, robbery, and plenty of dating scams that ended up very badly for the foreigners! Bogota in Colombia; similar climate to London in England, and drabby/ugly looking city in general unless you like dark and brown-looking buildings all over the place. Cali in Colombia; Absolutely Avoid for at least 1-2 yrs or longer due to being in a war region of army against guerrillas and high crime rates!! along with high kidnapping risk for foreigners and terror attacks!! Currently even the safest region of Colombia the coffee region has experienced increased crime rates, they say due to the current govt not taking a tough enough approach to security compared the last govt.

Agree about Delhi - doesn't belong on the list. Columbia always depends on where you live and where you go in terms of personal safety. I wouldn't discourage people from going there. Istanbul you got wrong - too busy and congested like any big city but a great place to spend a few months.

These are all places to visit as a digital nomad, places to live long-term would be a separate video 🙂

@@TravelingwithKristin Hi, Kristin, even so, please keep in mind the safety and pollution factors as well as whether the place or places are already too crowded. Thanks for your videos. 🙂👍

@@vmoses1979 😄😄 Colombia, not "Columbia". I explained the reasons for each place, if you want to ignore the warnings it's up to you, i say better safe than sorry, and always do some research before going places you are not getting timely updates on.

😆😆 Well, the country it's actually spelled as Turkiye not "Turkey", so that was wrong spelling before, from recent times onward the correct spelling of the country in English it's also Turkiye, not "Turkey".

@lorenk.775 4 күн бұрын

Please don't recommend already crowded and overcrowded cities/places such as Istanbul and (New) Delhi, and (New) Delhi it's also too polluted and too chaotic. Bogota? Cali? Bogota it's drabby and kind of ugly, Cali it's not a safe city and currently in a region that the army is in war with the guerrillas! Somehow you forgot to recommend the coffee region towns of Colombia, currently the safest and best there.

Why would anyone want to retire in Vietnam when they not only DON’T have a retirement visa, but you are required to leave the country after only 90 days? That’s terrible. Who wants to do border runs every 90 days for the rest of their life? What if they no longer allow you into the country?

@lorenk.775 4 күн бұрын

There can be other ways! or just pay for a long visa! border runs every 90 days are no big deal, especially since Vietnam is bordered by low cost countries.

@vmoses1979 3 күн бұрын

This is mostly directed at digital nomads who really don't need to be in the country for more than 3 months at a time. I don't think every developing country is obliged to offer retirement visas to foreigners who have been squeezed out in their home countries.

I pay for YT premium so I don't have to watch commercials.. sad to see you doing the "sponsor' ads... This is why I usually unsub from the 'big' channels.

@TravelingwithKristin 7 күн бұрын

Hi Annie, thanks for your comment. Accepting the occasional KZfaq sponsor is a common way for KZfaqrs to offset the high cost and investment in time required to produce these videos. Some of the videos on my channel take months to research, film, and edit. I will continue to selectively accept sponsorships from companies and products that I see value in and believe viewers would be interested in or benefit from.
