Planning board for Thailand.

People ask me why a person who spent 29 years teaching in the same school, and 30 years living in the same house is heading off to Thailand for 5 months.  The answer is Why not?  I have a supportive adventuring husband and a helpful mentor who has gone before me.  I hope to use this blog as a way to share with people both known and new how to adjust to retirement and enjoy the challenge of living in a new culture. I will include the planning steps for retirement in general, my reflections on my new state of life and most of all the challenges we learn to overcome as we head off to Chiang Mai, Thailand on October 30.
