I really wouldn’t mind Mexico. There are expat communities all over the place, apparently. My end goal is to be closer to the water. Never thought about Georgia, will look into that.



Look into Thailand.. certain members of this board will come at me with great vengeance and furious anger for even bringing it up, but that’s ok, i can take it… Thailand has great weather, terrific infrastructure, friendly people, super low cost of living in most cities, and the consistently best food ive ever had outside of South Louisiana .. not just the local Thai food, but other ethnic cuisines as well… Perhaps most importantly , their health care system is state of the art, with modern hospitals and cutting edge care- for literally a fraction of the cost of the American healthcare scam… Please dont take my word for it, feel free to research it yourself .



Downside is the flight to get there, or to any part of Asia- is absolutely brutal.. i hate the inconvenience and hassle of flying generally, but i suck it up b/c it’s worth it .

Thailand would absolutely be on the list for all the reasons you listed. My biggest concern as you pointed out is logistics. I would like to be close enough to home to get back easily to see my parents, attend weddings, funerals etc.

Not that it’s impossible to do from Thailand, but as you mentioned, it’s just brutal and takes some planning.
