Retire and Travel the World

NEW VIDEOS WED • FRI • SUN — 6PM UK. After selling everything I owned in the UK, I retired early and set off to slow travel the world on a budget. This channel follows my first year navigating life after retirement — exploring Asia while learning how travel, health, and reality don’t always go to plan.

I share honest travel vlogs, real cost of living breakdowns, and what it’s really like to retire early and live abroad — including adapting to slow travel, mobility challenges, and an autoimmune diagnosis along the way.

There’s no luxury, no rushing, and no pretending everything is perfect. Just real experiences, affordable travel, and learning how to build a simpler life one step at a time.

Subscribe if you’re interested in retirement travel, slow travel, living abroad, or navigating big life changes later in life — even when things don’t go as expected. 🌏

Retire and Travel the World

Growing up I was terrified of heights. 4 years ago I challenged myself to walk this single plank bridge 100 metres over the forest. I was shaking like crazy and it took me over an hour to complete but one step at a time… I did it! This came up on my Facebook today as a memory and reminded me I neeed to take on more challenges and try even more new things and keep facing my fears!

In today’s video we are back in Bukit Bintang Kuala Lumpur. The vibrant beating heart of KL. Incredible to think this was all just over the road from me! I do miss it! BUT the Pedestrian Crossings do turn green a heck of a lot quicker in the UK!

Just a snippet of some of the things to explore in Doha City! Personally I preferred the downtown area with Souq Waqif with a camel park on the side of the street, and the surrounding Corniche (promenade). A very fascinating city!

A long awaited beach day in Doha! Ok it’s a little windy but still nice to feel my feet in the sand!

I have had an amazing time in Kuala Lumpur despite all the health issues. I will miss the buzz and vibrancy and most of all the culture. I have absolutely been blown away by how inclusive and respectful of others Malaysians are and how kind and welcoming they have been to me. A very special place indeed and I am sure I will be back!

I made it to Saloma Link Bridge and got very lost in Kampung Baru and Chow Kit but still a lovely exploration around some local streets and markets!
