I would love to retire to the sun but know I'd be home sick in no time. However I would like to take winter months from November, returning for the darling buds of May to our beautifully enchanting Kingdom.
However, we do like the abroad crack and one of our our favourite program's is A Place In The Sun and I've forgotten how many episodes and seasons we've watched during lock-down. Simply sit in your shorts, turn up the heating, crack a cold bottle and allow your imagination to take flight. Yesterday we watched a brilliant episode from the island of Nevis.
The lady was born on Nevis and schooled at St Kitts which is visible from the headland. She came to England and met her husband both carving out a niche for themself. She became a solicitor and he was a developer of some descriptor, anyway I digress as they had a budget of 350k for their island home in the sun.
The thing with Nevis is that it's a buyers market, with homes for sale far outweighing the purchasers, some being on the market for many years. For the budget mentioned the houses they were shown were palatial in the extreme surrounded by acres of landscaped gardens so they were in for a treat. Yes, I guess I would love to retire abroad but only for six month trenches. Snow birds if you will.
