One of the biggest questions we get asked is: “How can you afford to slow travel the world after 50?”

In this episode, we share how we budget, plan, and prioritize to make full‑time travel possible on a retirement income—without being rich! We talk about the real costs of living abroad, the sacrifices we made, and how this lifestyle can be more affordable than staying put.

👉 You’ll hear about:
✅ Our exact mindset shift around money and freedom
✅ Why slow travel can cost less than a traditional lifestyle
✅ Budgeting tips and real examples of our monthly expenses
✅ How we prepared financially before taking the leap
✅ Why freedom doesn’t always require millions in the bank

What happens when two 50+ travelers decide life is too short to wait for “someday”? In this very first episode of the Your Time To Travel Podcast, we share our story of selling nearly everything we owned, packing just two suitcases and a golf bag, and hitting the road with our dog Bennie to live a life of slow travel and freedom.

We open up about:
✅ The turning point that made us rethink the 9-to-5 grind
✅ How we overcame fear and doubt to finally take the leap
✅ Downsizing our home, belongings, and mindset for a life of adventure
✅ What slow travel really means (and why it’s perfect for 50+ travelers)
✅ The excitement, challenges, and lessons of starting fresh abroad

This is more than a travel podcast—it’s about creating a life you don’t need a vacation from.

This is another special pre-launch episode of Your Time To Travel, as we gear up for our official podcast premiere!

In this episode, we’re sharing the 7 biggest lessons we learned while preparing to leave behind our careers, routines, and comfort zones to slow travel the world full-time in our 50s. Originally recorded as one of our early YouTube videos, this conversation dives into the real and raw moments that shaped how we got started.

If you're dreaming of a life beyond the 9-to-5, this episode will give you a grounded, honest look at what it really takes to start a slow travel lifestyle — especially after 50.

👫 We’re Karl & Tina, a couple in our 50s traveling the world full-time with our Bernedoodle, Bennie — and building a life on our own terms, one country at a time.

🧭 What You'll Learn:

• How we planned for full-time slow travel after retirement
• The early mistakes we made (so you can avoid them!)
• Why slow travel is a mindset, not just a pace
• Emotional and practical shifts that came with this decision
• What we would do differently now — and what still holds true
