In this video, we're sharing the story of how we made the decision to retire early from our teaching careers at the age of 51. After significant personal trauma in 2021, we made the decision to early retire in the summer of 2022 and we are now 18 months into our early retirement adventure. During that time we sold our family home, relocated to the Yorkshire Dales and renovated a cottage that has become our dream forever home. We now spend our time travelling the UK, Europe and the World in our VW campervan Nelson.

Join us as we discuss the motivations behind our choice to leave teaching, including our desire for greater freedom, flexibility, and pursuit of new passions. We'll share the challenges we faced along the way, as well as the strategies we implemented to achieve our goal of early retirement.

From financial logistics and budgeting to lifestyle adjustments and overcoming societal expectations, we'll provide insights and advice for anyone considering early retirement from the teaching profession or any other career.

Whether you're a fellow teacher contemplating a similar path or simply curious about the possibilities of early retirement, we hope our story inspires and encourages you to pursue your own dreams of an exciting and adventure filled early retirement.
