RETIREMENT TRAVEL - We have questions and they have answers

Check out John and Bev's vlog on our area: • EXPAT LIFE IN ITALY | ...
We invited John and Bev of the "Retirement Travelers" to be our guests in Umbria during their travels through Italy and spend 3 nights with us! We had so much fun getting to know each other and of course we took them to all our favorite sites and restaurants!
We had a lot of questions for them regarding their new lifestyle so we sat down and did a little Q&A .
So if you've been wondering why they decided to travel full-time, or what their must haves are for their backpacks or why they might even stop traveling the World , then make sure to watch our video to the end for those answers!
Also, make sure to head on over to their channel, "Retirement Travelers" to watch their vlog about their stay and what they saw and ate while they were in the green heart of Italy, Umbria!
It was an exciting 4 days that resulted in great new friends!

I was an exchange student to Argentina, Stijn, and I loved it!!! But because of family and friends both in Argentina and here in the US, I really want to go to Italy to see what it's like for myself. I also have a Europress coffee maker and carry it with me when I travel!
