Semi retirement, working and travelling
Hello just popped in for a quick pint here ok, quick question to folk who are 55 and over.
I'm 55 next March and have a private pension that I could cash in. It's not big enough to draw a weekly/monthly sum from so if I am to go travelling then I will have to use the lump sum as a starting point. I have prepped my work life accordingly over last several years so I can drop straight back into my current role working through agencies. I can't afford to fully retire hence the title 'semi retire' and so the plan is to travel/work/travel/work and so on.
Is there anyone else that has adopted this routine and how is it working out...???
I have work for 2018 and would like to set off the following year starting with the TCAT east to west then down the west coast heading for central and southern A. I'm figuring on travel time scales of between 12 to 18 months at a time before returning back for work stints of approx. 6 to 8 months. Obviously these are just loose plans and I would love to hear any experiences of anyone that has done this.
