Special Offer: International Living Magazine for Up to 60% Off
You don’t need to be wealthy to enjoy luxuries in retirement… you just need to know the shortcuts. In the best-value places abroad, you can travel often and live well, even on a Social Security check alone.
In our monthly magazine, we show you exactly how it’s done.

Looking for Your Just-Right Place Overseas?
In the US today, only a tiny percentage of the population can afford luxuries like a housekeeper, a gardener, or to simply walk around the corner for fresh produce. A retirement with an ocean view? A vacation every few months? Most folks assume that sort of lifestyle is way above their means.
But that’s not necessarily the case…
In the right spots abroad, a high-end lifestyle (with perks like a housekeeper and cook, an oceanfront or mountain view, and lots of opportunity for travel) costs way, way less than it would at home.
The truth is: In the right spots, you don’t have to be a millionaire to live well. You can do it on $30,000 a year—or even less.
Every month for over 45 years, our on-the-ground experts at International Living magazine have shown readers the shortcuts and secrets to an adventure-filled global life… including expat-friendly places with built-in communities that make it easy to transition to a new way of life.
We also share inspiring stories from folks who’ve made their overseas dream a reality… and connect you with the people and resources you need to do it yourself.
Take a look at our free sample issue—and the insider knowledge you could soon have at your fingertips.
