hello All
2 years 9 months from retirement. Retiring at 55 having worked then for 39 hours. Both me and wife retiring at the same time.
Fed up with the weather in particular.
We are considering 4 options for start of retirement:
1. Buy a motorhome and travel Europe most of which we have never seen.
2.buy / rent a property in Spain initially for 6 months and see how things go, like the people, food, climate....
3. Rent in Florida poss Tampa area although I know it can only be for a max of 6 months at a time.
4. USA east to west over a 6 month period.
With regard to options 3/4...
When we have rented previously in orlando we have found car hire in particular very expensive when you add insurance requirements. I don't think 6 months there without a car is an option as we like exploring rather than sitting on a beach.
With travelling across USA basically is it safe as we would either rent a motorhome for the journey or stay as you go
Any advice gratefully received
