I am Stevo (as my friends call me) I am from Brisbane Australia. I am an avid runner, photographer, Dad, Grandfather and I love to explore.
love to travel to new places, taste the food, run & walk the roads (especially bridges) and capture the beauty of this world we live in. I am on my road to retirement and hope you will follow me on this journey as I discover, what the world has to offer.
As beautiful as Australia is I am looking for that retirement place, that place I can afford to retire and I will share what I learn along the way with you. I will share travel tips, run locations and events, food experiences, photos and videos along the way.
“I love to hit the road and just run.”
I have ventured to Thailand, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, New Zealand and Vietnam. The cost of living in Asia compared to Australia is what I believe will help me decide on my retirement location.
I always wanted to retire near the beach and I am guessing there is good majority of people out there with similar goals but Beach locations in Australia at affordable prices are unrealistic, so places Like Da Nang in Vietnam, Jomtien or Hua Hin in Thailand are definite starting points for me to investigate.
I will research things like renting vs buying, Condos(Units in AUS), Home and land ownership, Costs for the everyday items like food, power, water, Transportation, internet and entertainment.
Parkrun has been a big part of life since I started in 2015. I have completed many milestones 50, 100, 250 runs and Volunteered close to 50 times. My next goal is my 500th parkrun.
I have run over 100 different parkrun’s across mainly Australia plus Singapore and Japan.
I participate in parkrun challenges (via the PARKRUN APP) which generally keeps me fit and healthy.
Parkrun is weekly timed event held every Saturday morning at parks all across the world. It is free to participate and open to all levels of runners and walkers.
