With the developments in travel and technology, moving abroad is
cheaper and less stressful than ever before. As you near
retirement age, have you considered spending your work-free years
overseas? With the freedom that comes with retirement, why not spend
your time exploring new surroundings and soaking up the sun.
With
this question in mind, Lamudi,
the global real estate marketplace, has explored the top countries to
retire abroad.
- Aqaba, Jordan
Spend
your retirement in this stunning coastal city, and enjoy the city’s
beach resorts, eye-catching architecture, local baths and relaxed
vibe. Transport to nearby Petra, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since
1985, leave regularly and cost very little, giving you the
opportunity to explore the Rose City. Jordan has a strong healthcare
system, with physicians proficient in English for those unable to
converse in Arabic. The affordable property prices in Aqaba make this
an increasingly desirable retirement spot.
- Karachi, Pakistan
As
Pakistan’s largest and most populated metropolitan city, Karachi
may not have previously been on your list of places to consider for
retirement. However, taking into account the city’s desirable
location on the Arabian Sea coastline, retirees can make the most of
both the city life and the beautiful, relaxing beaches, including
Hawke’s Bay Beach, and Paradise Point. Additionally, spend your
days exploring the many parks, museums and historical buildings that
Karachi has to offer. The stunning Hub Lake, a mere 56 kilometers
north of the city, is home to incredible wildlife, and offers the
opportunity to fish, picnic and swim away from the hustle and bustle
of the city.
