Quit your job, rent your house, and move abroad!

Nikki's picture

The plan to quit our life here in Colorado and move to South America for a year has been in the planning stages for 2 years...and was a hope before that. Well, it has finally become for real, frill you could even say. When we got home last night to a rent check for our house, I realized that living abroad is no longer just something we're hoping will someday happen. In fact, it will be starting two months from today...frill.

I was reading this forum the other day about other people leaving their house/job/car, so at least we're not the only fools in the world!

See you face planting in an Argentine steak and gelato chased with mate/red wine in 2 months.

PS If my boss is reading this, I'm totally joking.

I love my wife but sometimes she's so wrong.

It's been in the planning stages since 2000. I have a budget I made from back then for a life in chile and what it would cost to maintain our lives in Colorado (car insurance, etc.)

also, nobody's quitting colorado. i've still got my job and what not.

and then you're going to be "working" on your spanish language acquisition skills, so it's not so much quitting work for you as it is moving to a new career.

everything else, everything else I love.

Nikki you are so funny! Greg, relax.

what a great tips for those who want to work abroad.. Thanks for the article it is a great help...
