Our roving retirement plan has always involved exploring France, Spain, Portugal and the rest of Europe. Obviously, that didn’t work for us this year but our plans hinged on getting back to France this year for our visas.
How we are Coping with Coronavirus in France
We know that you might be concerned about how we are coping with the Coronavirus here in Europe. Our roving retirement has been put on hold for a while as we participate in social distancing here in Perpignan, France.
The French Connection (visas)
We have long wanted to spend a lot of our roving retirement in Europe and since both of us speak some French we focused on France. Of course, we are also interested in exploring Spain and Portugal all for more than 90 days at a time.
Malta Hotels and History
We planned our visit to Malta as a rest week between Scotland and our tour of the Middle East. We wanted to catch up on work and get some downtime. But we arrived at our hotel after 9 pm and discovered that the place was a dump.
Scottish Highland Scenery, Castles and Whisky
The next stop on our roving retirement world tour was meant to be a free-form driving trip around Scotland, starting in Edinburgh. Our plan was to visit St. Andrews, the Whisky Country, the highlands, maybe the Isle of Skye and then leave from Glasgow.
