Living on the road - in AirBnB's!

Submitted by Wanderlust Andi

The story of an elderly couple who retired, flew to Paris France with one-way tickets, and stayed in people's homes with AirBnB. The couple wasn't sure if they were ready to retire, or even if they could afford it. However, by using AirBnB and cutting their costs in other ways, they discovered they would have more than enough money to live out their retirement traveling all over Europe.

It makes sense. If you sell your home and get on the road, hotel expenses can be even less than your mortgage, taxes, interest and upkeep. You just have to have some wanderlust in you!
