Welcome to my blog!
I’m Jim. After a divorce and then an unexpected layoff, just a couple years prior to retirement, I decided to jump start my retirement dream of living in Europe. After a trip to Spain, and specifically Valencia, I felt I had found my home. Lots of folks have asked to follow my adventures. So, Adventures in Europe was created. Feel free to follow along!
Join the fun!
Stay updated with the latest twists and turns of a guy just crazy enough to follow his dream.
