Join us as we reflect on our early retirement journey and share the valuable lessons we've learnt over the past two years. From the joys of newfound freedom to the unexpected challenges, we'll give you an honest look at what it's really being like for us to retire early. In this video, we cover: Adjusting to a New Lifestyle: How we transitioned from full-time work to a life of leisure and exploration. Financial Insights: Managing our budget to sustain our retirement. Finding Purpose: How we discovered new passions and hobbies that keep us motivated. Health and Wellness: The importance of maintaining physical and mental well-being. Social Connections: Navigating relationships and building a community in retirement. We are Richard and Jackie and we live in the UK. We retired from teaching at the age of 51 in the summer of 2022. Our plans for early requirement include relocating to the Yorkshire Dales, developing our forever home and travelling the UK, Europe and eventually the world in our VW campervan Nelson.
