Moving to Romania as an early retiree

7 years ago
Good evening :)

After some years of hard work, frustration and stress I have decided that I can retire now, even if I am "only" 45 years old (single, no children).

I would like to retire to Romania :) I speak some languages and Romanian is one of them...

I was thinking about investing around 200.000 EUR for an apartment ( not a house, since it will be difficult to manage when I get old).

I will have about 1.200 EUR /month as income.

This amont should cover the monthly expenses (food, maintenance costs, ) and most important the costs of a private full health insurance ( I am insured in Germany by the national health insurance system, however it has a lot of boundaries regarding the treatment abroad - for example only emergency treatment).

I don't need much entertainment; my writing and reading is enough, some Theater or Opera would be nice, but not mandatory.

I would love to live somewhere in the mountains - heat is not my friend! I was thinking about Brasov due to it's location and fresh air.

Would it be doable with my ncone and maybe you have another sugestion ?

Many thanks and greetings from Berlin :)
