Germany, Belgium or Czech Republic.

Then, I would proceed to gain roughly 400lbs

I've done it 2 times and was lined up to do it a 3rd time when Covid hit. Those were all for work. I would consider moving myself to the skeleton coast of Namibia.

If I could afford to move away some place nice (either have a solid job there or save up enough to retire), I would do it in a heartbeat.

Since my wife passed away I have given it serious consideration. The only thing that has stopped me is not seeing the grandkids for a period of time. But, even still I have begun preparations by selling the house and this season giving up the LSU and Saints season tickets. Surprisingly, that has gone quite well missing the games. I traveled around the world for fun and last September spent 1 month driving around France. I am thinking Loire Valley in a small town might be my stopping spot

Told my wife last time we were in Italy I could live on Capri right off the coast of Naples for the rest of my life and never look back

Also Italy is wayyyy cheaper than France

I did germany for 5 years and am now in Hong Kong. After a few years here I may go back to Europe. My wife and kids seem to like it as well.

Cuenca , Ecuador


This one's on my radar. I really like Ecuador but would want a less crowded place than Quito.

New Zealand would be cool, but not easy to get into. And it's not cheap at all. Costa Rica - maybe, but Ecuador seems more interesting.

To retire to the places I've spent much time in, Bermuda would be #1 and Costa Rica #2.

Plan is to retire there. Everyone speaks English. Exchange rate is 2-1 so it’s easy. Absolutely love it.

Never. This land is my land. This land is your land. From California to the New York island.

My ancestors on both sides of my family have been here and fought and bled since before this country was even a country. I will never abandon it.

What’s happening to South Africa? I thought that all ended with Apartheid. Haven’t they been making huge improvements since then?

Do they speak English there or do I need to learn Spanish?
