About this listen
According to the US State Department, 10 million Americans live abroad. Should you be one of them? If you have asked yourself any of the following questions, the expatriate life may be for you.
- Do I feel safe in the United States?
- Can I survive financially on my retirement income?
- Will I lose my access to adequate healthcare as I age?
- Do I need more fun and excitement in my life?
Depending on your answers, maybe you should consider an alternative to your current retirement story. In this book, a retired Travel Consultant who has traveled to more than 40 countries and assisted many of her clients as they retired abroad, takes you on an informal journey of 9 diverse countries in Europe where you can retire comfortably and happily on a budget. This book demystifies the process of moving overseas by offering tips on acquiring visas, purchasing, or renting property, understanding healthcare options, and taxation policies, adapting to the culture, and more. You will also get some personal insight from current expats on the processes of moving and adjusting to a brand-new environment. Learn how a nontraditional retirement can be just the boost you need in your life.
If you ever wondered what it would be like to move abroad and just how to go about it, look no further than this book. Rediscover places you have always loved and discover some you may never have dreamed of. The one thing they all have in common is that you can live and thrive there for way less money than you can in the United States. Imagine living in paradise on your social security income.
You really can do it!

The “mountain men” were the hunters and trappers who fiercely strode the Rocky Mountains in the early to mid-1800s. They braved the elements in search of the skins of beavers and other wild animals, to sell or barter for goods. The lifestyle of the mountain men could be harsh, existing as they did among animals, and spending most of their days and nights living and camping out in the great unexplored wilds of the Rockies.

Story
When Edmund Hillary first conquered Mt. Everest, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay was at his side. Indeed, for as long as Westerners have been climbing the Himalaya, Sherpas have been the unsung heroes in the background. In August 2008, when eleven climbers lost their lives on K2, the world’s most dangerous peak, two Sherpas survived. They had emerged from poverty and political turmoil to become two of the most skillful mountaineers on earth. Based on unprecedented access and interviews, Buried in the Sky reveals their astonishing story for the first time.

Story
Thoreau gives an account of three canoe and hiking journeys - by himself and with others - through the mostly uninhabited forests of Maine in the 1850s. Identifying birds, trees and plants by their botanical as well as their common names, he also records the Indian names of lakes, rivers and plants. He investigates the connections between waterways and trails, and provides detail on camping, fishing and hunting in the woods, using whatever is at hand. Extolling the beauty of the wilds that he encounters, Thorough’s narrative is also imbued with elements of his philosophy.

For 30 years, drummer, author, and songwriter Neil Peart had wanted to write a book about "the biggest journey of all in my restless existence: the life of a touring musician." Finally, the right time, and the right tour. In the summer of 2004, after three decades, 20 gold albums, and thousands of performances, the band Rush embarked on a 30th Anniversary World Tour. The "R30" tour traveled to nine countries, where the band performed 57 shows for more than half a million fans. Uniquely, Peart chose to do his between-show traveling by motorcycle, riding 21,000 miles of back roads.

Story
Like a well-crafted stage play, Just Passin' Thru delivers one suspenseful scene after another. But in this historic setting a store on the Appalachian Trail called Mountain Crossings the characters who show up are no fictional creations. Like any good drama, there are the good guys (and gals) and the weirdos, too. Some show up once (and that’s enough), and some appear again and again. But all are united by two things: the author’s story-capturing talent, and whatever it is that lures them to attempt (or conquer) a 2,200-mile path that climbs and plummets from Georgia to Maine.

This is pretty exciting!
I honestly never considered retiring in Europe before listening to this book. It sounded like something you’d have to be incredibly wealthy to pull off. I’m super excited that this book proved me wrong.
Retiring in Europe now sounds way less daunting thanks to this amazing book. It covers everything, including both the pros and the cons of living in particular countries. I feel like an exciting new possibility just got unlocked!

A must have
The book was short straight to the point without all the non-needed fluff. I was impressed at how informative and well written it is with clear pros and cons of every country, taxation and what to expect. The book explained the requirements needed to get the paperwork needed before traveling which will save a lot of headaches and money further down along the process. The bureaucracy, the security, the healthcare, the weather, the different ways to get your citizenships in all 9 countries. Etc.. This opened my eyes to possible retirement in Europe specially when im already fluent in three of those languages. Will definitely recommend!!!

An audiobook book full of inspiration.
The concept of retiring in Europe seems like an unreachable ideal, but the author reminds us that it is achievable, which is why I adored this audiobook. I appreciated that it offered helpful advice on realising your dreams as well as a wealth of knowledge, including the benefits and drawbacks of various nations' tax systems. It's quite impressive that the author was able to write a book that was so concise and to the point. Every person who is concerned about retirement life should listen to this book. Recommended!

Retire to Europe
Great audible to provide places to think about retiring to. Having lived in the UK for all this time it's nice to plan a hotter destination that doesn't rain as much. This audible was great to discuss the detail in each destination and we certainly prefer Portugal after listening to all the chapters but wow, Slovenia really is a hidden gem. A must listen for anyone serious about retiring abroad for a better life.

Europe, Here I Come!!!
If the idea of retiring in Europe has ever crossed your mind, whether it is a concrete plan or feels like an unattainable dream, this is the book you have been looking for!
I have yet to retire, but I was an expat in Brazil for over 10 years, and listening to this book made me wish that the author had written a book about retiring in Brazil, because while this book is geared toward retirees, much of the information would be relevant to someone moving to Europe for any reason, at any stage of life. The chapters on each country include information about climate, healthcare, city versus rural life, transportation, cultural observations, cuisine, cost of living, history, and so much more.
Lily St. Francis does an especially excellent job of highlighting the charm and delightful characteristics of each country and culture, which is extremely helpful in narrowing down the choices of European countries. As you listen to the descriptions, you will find yourself drawn to and intrigued by certain countries more than others, based on how your personality and taste connects with the culture and what is available in each country.
Or, this book might make you decide to plan a survey tour before making up your mind which European country to retire in, because they all do sound delightful! If you follow the practical suggestions and helpful tips in this book, you won’t go wrong no matter which country you choose! Buy this book today, and start making your dream retirement a reality!
