When we sold the house, we hadn't picked a country. No visa sorted. No income plan. No idea where we'd actually settle. Just a decision to go, and sort the rest out once we were out. Two months in Thailand was where it started. Then Bali. We've just picked up a one year visa here, and we're already talking about heading to Sumatra for a stretch to help with monkey conservation work, because we can. Right now I'm writing this from a bar by the beach, working through our long term income plans. Not before we left. Now. While we're already living it. And honestly, I'm so glad we did it this way round. If we'd stayed in the UK trying to nail down every visa, every income stream, every "where will we actually live" question before we left, we'd still be there now. Maybe forever. Because out here, the answers come faster. You meet people who've done it. You see what actually works instead of guessing. The logistics that feel impossible to solve from your sofa in the UK sort themselves out once you're actually here, dealing with them in real time. If you're stuck trying to plan every detail of visas, money and "where" before you'll let yourself leave, I get it. We were there too. But you don't solve that puzzle sitting still. You solve it by moving. Join us.
