1 Year Of Early Retirement: Spending, Accidental Income, What’s Changed And What’s Next?
Well, the fastest 12 months of my life are at an end.

The Month Of City Hopping: Early Retirement Month 12 (September 2021)

The Month Of New Hampshire: Early Retirement Month 9 (June 2021)
Before we get into the topic today, I have a quick aside.

How Being A Nomad Helps Reinforce What’s Actually Important
Life can be a bit of a nightmare 🙂 . And it’s in those hard times that we (myself included) cling to comfort items.
