If you have already moved abroad in retirement, we would like to hear about your experience. Where did you move to and why? What is your quality of life like there? How does the cost of living compare to Ireland? What about services such as healthcare? How did you find the process of transferring pensions etc? Do you travel back to Ireland regularly? Perhaps you spend months overseas every year, and the rest in Ireland? Are there any downsides?
