Snowbirds, don't buy a second home! Do this instead!

Snowbirds, don't buy a second home! Do this instead!

Snowbirds are Americans and Canadians who often "fly south" for the winter to escape the coldest months of the year in a warmer climate. This often involves owning and maintaining a second home, which can be expensive and a burden. We'd like to suggest an alternative to this traditional approach to snowbirding and consider world travel instead. Save yourself maintenance headaches and instead create lasting memories in beautiful places throughout the world. We lay out three different scenarios that uses the money that would be used to pay on a mortgage and home maintenance for a vacation home and apply it to travel. We share ideas of warmer destinations that offer culture and excitement. This is the plan we've been following this winter and it's been amazing! #snowbird #retirementtravel #canadiantravellers #snowbirdalternative 00:00 Introduction 00:47 Our Snowbird Journey 03:00 Scenario #1 - $2000/month costs ($24,000 total travel budget) 06:42 Scenario #2 - $2500/month costs ($30,000 total travel budget) 08:04 Scenario #3 - $3000/month costs ($36,000 total travel budget) 09:42 Summary Related Videos: Recap of our 2025 Snowbird Travels in SE Asia:    • Snowbird Alternative: SE Asia - Our Epic a...   European Winter Getaways -    • Make Europe Your Winter Travel Destination   How to Retire in your 50s and Travel the World:    • How to retire in your 50s and travel the w...   Subscribe to our channel:    / @wanderlustwiththemckenzies
