Rome, Italy.
I had a friend that made the decision to move to Italy after a great vacation experience. They said they were tired of the rat race, the fast pace, and really liked the laid back culture of the Italians.
They moved over to Italy and rented for 6 months. They didn’t renew the lease.
They mentioned the Train strikes, arbitrary hours of operation at the stores, aggressive pan handlers, mail strikes where the mail got thrown in the river, and other inconveniences that we take for granted here in the US.
It’s a nice place to visit for sure but living there can be very inconvenient if you care about that sort of thing.

That's my biggest fear from retiring abroad.
We spent a couple of weeks in Ireland and though about retiring there.
But then you hear about strikes, socialized medicine, random shopkeeping hours makes you appreciate the efficiency of the US.
Still searching for the best combo of US efficiency and slower Euro culture. Most places in America that are laid back are full of fats and rednecks unfortunately. And this is coming from a former fat with a slightly red neck.
