![]() The Grown-Up's Guide to Running Away from Home: Making a New Life Abroad $14.95 Although well written and easy to read, there isn't much insight or useful information for someone pondering the issue of retiring outside the country, what the living circumstances might be like, what the alternative countries might be like. Instead, the book gives a chapter called "Personal Packing for Runaways" with advice on what sort of clothes to pack for your exit departure. Well, that would depend on where you are going, your wealth, and many other factors. The book's advice is mainly to pack light. The list includes taking a watch, travel alarm, reading material, sunglasses, and camera. Oh, it advises taking "film" for the camera, whatever that is. Once upon a time there was something called "film" that was used with cameras. The book focuses mostly on Europe, as the author moved to France and gives advice most suited to those with similar interests, which are different from mine. |
