Our Retirement, Our Rules

2025/08/02

Ep.167 What if retirement wasn’t something you waited for, but something you shaped for yourself?

Ep.166 In this video, we explore Tbilisi not just as travelers but as curious observers trying to understand a country still fighting for its identity. From bold street art near a former Soviet sewing factory to centuries-old statues and cathedrals, nightly protests, and the towering symbolism of the Mother of Georgia, we share the layered, emotional story of our time here. ❤️ Watch us on YouTube!

The Italy No One Talks About (and Why We Stayed a Month)

2025/07/19

Ep.165 Cagliari probably isn’t on your bucket list, but maybe it should be. We came to Sardinia to sightsee… but also to slow down. During our a month in Cagliari, we fell for more than the historic towers and ancient streets—we found a rhythm of life that felt slower, simpler, and better. This video isn’t about checking off the sights. It’s about sharing what surprised us, the moments that felt meaningful, and why Cagliari, Sardinia’s capital, became a place we didn’t want to leave.

How Travel Changed the Way We Communicate as a Couple

Finding Gina Marie - Travel the World ·

2025/07/05

Ep.163 We thought we knew how to communicate. But full-time travel? It rewrote the rulebook. And not because of big fights, but because of all the little things. After 40+ years together, we didn’t expect moods, routines, space, and constant decision making to test us like this. In this episode, we’re sharing how travel changed the way we talk to each other, from managing daily logistics to navigating tension, compromise, and very different energy levels. ❤️ Watch us on YouTube!

What If We Can’t Travel Anymore? What We’d Do Instead

Finding Gina Marie - Travel the World ·

2025/06/28

Ep.162 Viewers ask us: “What’s your plan if you can’t travel anymore?“ In this video, we talk about aging as nomads, future retirement options abroad, and how we’re planning for the years ahead without giving up the life we love now. If this is a question you wrestle with, or whether you’re thinking about finding a home base, whether to pay for Medicare, and living overseas, this conversation is for you. We talk about all of this and more! ❤️ Watch us on YouTube! Support the show

Is Gozo Worth Visiting? Here’s What We Found

Finding Gina Marie - Travel the World ·

2025/06/21

Ep.161 Gozo is often described as quieter and slower than Malta’s main island, and that made us almost skip it. But we’re so glad we didn’t. We take you along for two day trips—one with our daughter (featuring a detour to the Blue Lagoon and Comino) and one just the two of us. We’ll show you how we got around, what made the biggest impression, and why some retirees are choosing to live here. You'll also find accessibility ratings and on-screen costs. ❤️ Watch us on YouTube! Support the show

Is Malta Europe’s Most Overlooked Destination?

Ep.160 Malta may look like a sunny beach escape, but we included it in our travels because it’s so much more. We spent a month here and uncovered ancient sites, sacred traditions, and small daily joys that took us by surprise. From a 5,000-year-old underground temple to a powerful religious procession, we’re sharing what we spent, where we stayed, and whether Malta might just be Europe’s most overlooked cultural treasure. ❤️ Watch us on YouTube!

This is the episode to watch if you’ve ever considered full-time travel or just want to understand what it really takes.

Ep.157 Aging hasn’t felt the way we expected. We thought life would slow down in our 60s — but instead, it’s shifted in ways that still surprise us. In this personal episode, we’re sharing what it really feels like to grow older while living on the road… the trade-offs, the joys, the questions we didn’t know we’d be asking.

Costa Rica’s one of those places you picture in your head — wild jungles, crashing waves, colorful creatures. Why did we base ourselves in the capital city of San José — and was that a mistake? That question led to two day trips, and one big lesson we didn’t see coming.

Ep.151 These two coastal cities sit side by side — close in distance, but very different in feel. Valparaíso is colorful, creative, a little gritty, a little chaotic, but packed with charm and history. Viña del Mar is more relaxed and polished, with palm trees and long beaches and a little bit flatter, if you want to kick back and relax.
