How To Find Your Ideal Location, Anywhere In The World

If You Could Have Any View From Your Bedroom Window Each Morning…

If you could live anywhere… where would you choose?

It can be hard to find an answer to a question that broad.

So, instead, try answering this one:

If you could have any view from your bedroom window each morning, what would you most like it to be?

Lief and I have spent the past week at Los Islotes, the beachfront community we’re developing on the western coast of Panama’s Azuero Peninsula. We’re driving back to Panama City today, where we’ll spend a couple of days in the office before traveling to Las Vegas for next week’s Make Money Overseas Event.

From Vegas we’ll fly to Paris. We intend to be on that side of the Pond through the holidays… meaning we won’t be returning to Panama’s Azuero Sunset Coast for two-and-a-half months.

While we’re away, this is the image I’ll carry with me… the view from the bedroom window of the house we’ve built here at Los Islotes…

I’ve got to run. Lief wants to leave in time to beat the Sunday afternoon returning-to-Panama-City-after-a-weekend-at-the-beach traffic on the Pan-American Highway.

So I’ll be mercifully brief today and leave you with this:

Each morning when you wake, what would you like to see first?

Focus on pinning that down.

Consider it homework.

Enjoy your Sunday. I’ll speak with you again tomorrow.

Kathleen Peddicord has covered the live, retire, and do business overseas beat for more than 30 years and is considered the world's foremost authority on these subjects. She has traveled to more than 75 countries, invested in real estate in 21, established businesses in 7, renovated historic properties in 6, and educated her children in 4.

Kathleen has moved children, staff, enterprises, household goods, and pets across three continents, from the East Coast of the United States to Waterford, Ireland... then to Paris, France... next to Panama City, where she has based her Live and Invest Overseas business. Most recently, Kathleen and her husband Lief Simon are dividing their time between Panama and Paris.

Kathleen was a partner with Agora Publishing’s International Living group for 23 years. In that capacity, she opened her first office overseas, in Waterford, Ireland, where she managed a staff of up to 30 employees for more than 10 years. Kathleen also opened, staffed, and operated International Living publishing and real estate marketing offices in Panama City, Panama; Granada, Nicaragua; Roatan, Honduras; San Miguel de Allende, Mexico; Quito, Ecuador; and Paris, France.

Kathleen moved on from her role with Agora in 2007 and launched her Live and Invest Overseas group in 2008. In the years since, she has built Live and Invest Overseas into a successful, recognized, and respected multi-million-dollar business that employs a staff of 35 in Panama City and dozens of writers and other resources around the world.

Kathleen has been quoted by The New York Times, Money magazine, MSNBC, Yahoo Finance, the AARP, and beyond. She has appeared often on radio and television (including Bloomberg and CNBC) and speaks regularly on topics to do with living, retiring, investing, and doing business around the world.

In addition to her own daily e-letter, the Overseas Opportunity Letter, with a circulation of more than 300,000 readers, Kathleen writes regularly for U.S. News & World Report and Forbes.

Her newest book, "How to Retire Overseas: Everything You Need to Know to Live Well (for Less) Abroad," published by Penguin Random House, is the culmination of decades of personal experience living and investing around the world.
