Retire2Roam

We’re Russell & LJ, a retired couple traveling the world through early retirement, slow travel, and budget-friendly living abroad. On Retire2Roam, we show what retirement travel really looks like — from affordable long-stay destinations and hidden gems to the everyday realities of expat life.

If you’re planning to retire overseas, live abroad on a budget, or travel full-time after 50, this channel is for you. We share cost-of-living guides, monthly expense breakdowns, mobility-friendly tips, apartment tours, and practical insights from life as senior expats.

Our mission is simple: help you retire earlier, travel farther, spend less, and live more. Join us as we explore the world one country at a time — proving you don’t need a massive pension to enjoy freedom, adventure, and a meaningful retired life abroad.
