10 years younger than you but kind of heading in the same direction.
I quit my cubicle job in the UK a couple of years ago (wise move) and I'm now teaching in China. I love teaching but not sure I love living in one of the most annoying places on earth.
Quitting the rat race is a great idea. My old boss (IT manager) retired and just sailed his boat. The next time I saw him he looked 10 years younger. Work is the worst thing you can do to your health.
Oh and don't go down the buying Asian land or starting businesses - the whole continent is just so epically corrupt.
I lived in Thailand but the dating wasn't great in terms of quality. China has the better women but it's a very variable country in terms of dating. Thailand did have great food and all the usual Western comforts were easy to find.
I thought about living in Thailand but I'd also check out Malaysia (Penang?) and maybe even Panama.
