Ideal Retirement Location?

[Admiral Yi]

What took you to Costa Rica Guppy?

[Josquius]

Cornwall maybe.
Warm weather, rural, pretty. Though maybe a bit much rain outside of summer given it is on the west coast. Northern New Zealand somewhere maybe. Or France but for the French.

What took you to Costa Rica Guppy?

Just had a couple of weeks holiday there - maybe 15 years ago. Loved it. Beach, forests, volcanos. Don't really know it well enough to think of it has a retirement place.

[Duque de Bragança]

I would probably do a snowbird kind of deal: summer in a temperate city (Paris?), winter in the tropics.

Summers, specially hot ones, are awful in Paris, as in any major city. Cool weather is preferable in these places, even more so for old people.

[Richard Hakluyt]

I might commute, summer in England followed by summer in New Zealand 

[Brazen]

Languedoc. And if I win the lottery a pied a terre in St Andrews.

Somewhere mild but rainy, where I can be calm and do some thinking... I've never been, but I'd be willing to give Atlantic/Biscayan Spain a try, maybe Asturias?   Or Galicia, of course, not to snub Larch.    And I actually have a long-lost friend originally from A Coruña who might give me advice.

[Ed Anger]

Normandie. Cool summer temps and I can pretend I'm defending a hedgerow.

[The Larch]

Somewhere mild but rainy, where I can be calm and do some thinking... I've never been, but I'd be willing to give Atlantic/Biscayan Spain a try, maybe Asturias?   Or Galicia, of course, not to snub Larch.    And I actually have a long-lost friend originally from A Coruña who might give me advice.

I'd take you out for some drinks and local food, in order to repay the Philly cheesesteaks.

You can't beat San Sebastian IMO. The food

[Valmy]

Nice.

It is France but with amazing pizza.

[Sheilbh]

Like the other Brits, probably South of France.

Like the other Brits, probably South of France.

I will challenge you to a game of Pétanque.

You can take me to that tapas stand that has a whole bunch of plaques commemorating fallen members of the Guardia Civil and with walls covered in badges of different departments across Spain... oh wait. 

[Scipio]

Belize.

Or a wet county in Mississippi where there's cheap dirt, a brewery, and an Orthodox church.
