Slow Travel May Be Better Than Being Expats!
on channel: 89 Days Away | Slow Travel | Post-Work Lifestyles
Many thanks for all of the great comments that expand on the discussion! We got rid of most of our belongings, and headed to Portugal to move overseas. But it didn't really work out for a number of reasons. But we are really happy with the alternative - being slow travelers and part-time expats! This video identifies some of the characteristics of Slow Travel and Part Time expats.
We have a small home in the USA that is our home base, and spend 1-3 months at a time in one place overseas, several times a year. We stay long enough to really learn about a place's people and the history, and experience living in the culture.
This video provides a brief overview of why being a slow traveler / part-time expat may be right for you, and some tips on how to prepare.

And in case you were wondering, our channel title "89 Days Away" refers to the typical 90-day visitor limit for staying in a country or area (such as the EU Schengen Zone) before having to become an official resident.
We try to maintain a lean, scaled back lifestyle in the US, and spend around 1/2 of our year living overseas as "slow travelers", within those time limits, to get the overall expat experience without having to become a full time resident of the foreign country.
Our channel started out talking about that lifestyle, but has morphed into other topics related to this stage of life that we find interesting.
We hope that you find the topics interesting as well.
