Retirement? For me, it’s not about stopping — it’s about shifting gears.
I don’t dream of quiet golf courses or daily routines. I dream of travelling. I want to retire the same way I’ve lived: exploring and collecting moments with my Leica.
Ideally, I’d retire with my family still by my side — maybe not chasing flights as fast as we do now, but still slow-roaming the world, one beautiful destination at a time. A few months in Italy. A summer by the Maldives. A beach house rental somewhere warm in winter. Maybe a base in Portugal, with the freedom to wander.
I want to photograph hidden corners, eat in local places where the menus don’t have translations, and write about it all — still adding to this blog, hopefully helping others explore too. Maybe even offering curated travel plans or running a boutique guesthouse somewhere beautiful and remote.
Retirement, for me, isn’t an end. It’s the luxury of time — time to travel slower, write deeper, and live more deliberately.
Because if there’s one thing travel teaches you, it’s this: the world is too wide, too weird, and too wonderful to stop exploring — even when your hair goes grey.
How do you want to retire? Quiet and cozy, or roaming and restless like me? I’d love to hear it.
