Under SSA/SSI u can not live more 30 days outside of USA. Beware.😂
Good synopsis. Well done. I subscribed.
IF I DIDN'T HAVE FAMILY IN FLORIDA AND MY PROPERTY, I WOULD HAVE BEEN GONE, ASIA IS THE PLACE TO BE, I HATE THE U.S CULTURE AND PEOPLE AND THE WOMEN HERE ARE PATHETIC
I recomend you visit burgas,sozopol,nesebar,balchik and the architecture reserves in the interior of the country....if you travel arround Bulgaria,you defenately visit,plovdiv,ruse and veliko tarnovo you will not regret it at all
Number one: Bali (Ubud?) It would be nice if you could post a few graphics and then we could screenshot those.
Got examples?
I really like Bulgaria, but one thing that is a real plus for Romania is their written language is Latin based, not Cyrillic like Bulgaria. Some people pick it up but in the month I spent in Kazakhstan I might as well have been on Mars. Cyrillic is extremely difficult for me but a Latin based language like Spanish or Italian is often easier to work with.
I hope you get to Cluj also. I looked at Romania but a lot of people on groups weren't that positive about Bucharest. But very positive on the Transylvania region.
I stayed in Bucharest extensively for about 5 years. I drank the water out of the tap with no issues.

How much is beef steak per 100 grams?
Just discovered you guys, Dan and Chang. Liked and subscribed!!
Thank you!
Doesnt late October/November to Febuary/March Weather absolutley suck in Danang , Hoi an ,Hue??
Da nang is one the least favourable places in vietnam Hue na trang or other places all rank better then da nang
I understand the purpose of this video is to show the costs of living on a budget in KL and KL provides such, but I’d prefer to focus on value. Price is what you pay, value is what you get. A decent apartment in a good neighbourhood like Bangsar, KLCC, Bukit Bintang, Sri Hartamas or Mont Kiara is still relatively affordable at around rm 5k - 8k per month. Cheapest is not always the best and the best is not always expensive.
Thanks for sharing
Humidity during those 4 summer months? Is it common to find rentals with garage?
I don't recall where specifically, but I think I have walked by a few apartment buildings that had underground parking entries?
Yet another hidden gem in Eastern Europe. Thank you for showing Romania to the world
I found the interview interesting and informative. I'm 65 and also use natural medicine. My girlfriend of the last years recently has suspicious jealousy. Suspicious jealousy is a type of jealousy in which a person fears the loss of a valued relationship to a rival even though the person's partner has not misbehaved and there is no factual basis for this worry. She's just 24 now and I hope we can work through it. I believe it's the Trust issue that your guest mentioned. It's not wise to marry if there's no trust. Tyt.
Jealousy is a big turn off for me. :-(
@@VagabondAwake I remember being jealous at her age. I'm hoping it's something she outgrows. Might be an interesting follow up discussion with your guest.
How much are the prices of beef steak and eggs? Get a leash for your dog

Great content Dan and Qiong!
Dan and Qiang, make the best videos I've seen. I moved to Bangkok in 2003 to learn Muay Thai. I was and I am still too young to retire and I have made more mistakes than I care to admit. I wish that I had Dan's videos to help me chart my way. I had a site called Bootstraps and other backpacker sites in the early days of the internet. I am 52 and Dale's letter is very interesting. I too have taught English but I make my money as a personal trainer and martial arts instructor. I'll let Dan and Qiang give the advice but if I could impart some wisdom it would be this; watch your finances and keep a nest egg somewhere. Don't be afraid but find something you can do to earn income, teaching English is viable but do it your way and the best you can. Learn the language! my biggest regret is not speaking fluently in Thai, Korean, or Vietnamese. Next country language classes will be essential.

Thanks for sharing.
Congrats on 150K Subscribers Dan! My parents loved your recommendations in Ubud and KL. Keep up the great work!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful place. Great for a holiday, but I wouldn't retire there. Asia wins every time for me.
Thanks for sharing John.
For men looking at Bucharest to find better dating options than Western women, theres a good channel called Legion of Men who lives there.
Thanks Dan 👍🏼
Great video, Dan ! Thx for sharing
Glad you liked it!
So, why is America so expensive and too many shootings? I love $50.00 per month rent
I wish I knew the answer to that question. :-(
Perfecto!❤
steffy and our son are visiting Cebu this summer.
Hi Dan, I appreciate your videos very much. You actually deliver value vs. other travel bloggers, who mostly like to brag. Anyway, it would be very interesting to hear your input about Transnistria (moldova). It is the next country after Romania and the only country that preserved the Soviet Union statues and style. I am located at the moment here, and I would love to hear your thoughts about this place. I'll be happy to meet you and show you around, guys. Thanks for your valuable videos one more time. You are actually living the life and helping people at the same time with channel, that's priceless.

@@VagabondAwake Dan, I knew you will suggest that, as I watched some of your EA videos. Thank you, I'll think about it. In teh mean time, I strongly suggest you visit Moldova and Transnistria, to have two more reasonable priced countries in your collection that expats might consider. You can take an overnight train from Bucharest to Chisinau ($35 from Gara de Nord), which would be another experience. Moldova is pretty beautiful in this time of the year, and I hope you enjoy it, but Chisinau (the capital) is over crowded (Tiraspol, the capital of Transnistria is way more laid back).
@@AboutFreedomShowTransnistria is one strike away from Russia and it is de-facto controlled by Russia. I would not ever live there until Ruskies get out of there. Moldova is definitely better, but still not safe from the war.
i moved back to America with "Steffy" back in 2016. lived in Cebu City, that really SUCKED for me. i LOVE living off the grid and homesteading stuff!! steffy and i lived in a camper 8x32 foot, OFF GRID IN SOUTH DAKOTA for 3 entire years. i have NO friends, im just fine with my wife and our son! i have no other family! im 36 years older than steffy, and 60 years older than our son!!
Very interesting interview, I picked up a lot of open source intel as I am planning a slow travel to Da Nang early 2025. You are doing a great job with your channel.
Glad it was helpful Jacque, :-)
Was Bucharest destroyed in WWII?
It was not. That is one of the reasons E. Europe is more interesting than Western. They gave up quickly so the architecture is preserved.
@@VagabondAwake didn’t Ceausescu destroys lot of old historical buildings ?
First time by the Allies...April-May 1944 - British American bombardments in Bucharest - 5.524 dead, 3.373 wounded, 47.974 left without homes. Second time by Axis.... 23-27 August 1944 - Nazi bombardments in Bucharest - 85 dead, 90 wounded, 69 houses destroyed.
@@calixtomuni9780he did, but Bucharest is amazingly historic compared to American cities
Another great , video. Romania has come a long way. Beautiful country. Curious to know if you intend to visit adjacent Moldova. Apparently it’s also a beautiful place and super affordable.
Probably not this time. But maybe next. :-)
Moldova is similar, but in some ways backward since they are not yet in the EU. But both are gold if you stay out of trouble
Excellent video, Dan!
In seoul, you can live 2000 dollars a month
Don't forget the Knock Out Women!!!!
Do the women take your possessions after they knock you out. Also, why don’t the police control this?………..😂
They do. That's why they knock you out. The police do nothing because they take a cut.
The ladies in RO are out of this world, be very careful not to explode from seeing them when you get there.
Budget retiree are for two?
Yes, that's our estimate for us two.
It looked like fun but I couldn’t hear clearly the words? Wish I could
Not clear? Not loud enough?
Sorry it was very clear🙏🏼
Good Info Dan, especially the Immigration lawyer site. Might you be checking out Bulgaria and possibly Sunny Beach there?
Here is our beach report for Bulgaria, Jack: vagabondbuddha.com/retire-in-varna-bulgaria/
Check out Burgas in BG and Constanta in RO
Dan, can you touch on healthcare in Da Nang? I am a 57 year-old disabled man with MS and left side paralysis. I cannot afford both health care and in-home nursing care. Legitimate challenges ahead for me. Convinced I’m better off living out the rest of my life overseas. Your thoughts on hospital availability, emergency care, and what it may cost to hire a full-time staff for personal hygiene and house-keeping needs. Great advice on keeping and renting my home.
So sorry Chris, but my knowledge about healthcare is not that sophisticated. I would leave a message on one of the Facebook pages for the city you are interested asking if anyone is experiencing the kind of care you need (in detail) and ask them if they would private message you so you could get specific answers about your daily needs and costs.
