Move Abroad Mixer Denver 2026: How to Retire Overseas

Every week I talk with people in the United States who have done everything right - worked for decades, saved what they could, planned carefully - and still feel like the numbers no longer work. Rent keeps climbing, groceries cost more every month, and retirement looks further away instead of closer. If that sounds familiar, I want to personally invite you to an afternoon that could change how you think about your next chapter.

An Afternoon in Denver About Living Abroad

On Friday, September 25, 2026, from 2 to 5 PM, I will be joining the Expatsi team in Denver for the Move Abroad Mixer - a relaxed afternoon of international wine and food pairings, expert sessions, and honest conversation with people who share the same question: could my life be better somewhere else?

Expatsi is the American team that helps people test-drive a move abroad, and they have brought together a hand-picked group of relocation experts for this event. You will hear about international real estate and scouting trips with Mike Cobb of ECI Development, building your international financial plan with Kyle Davis of Beacon Global Advisors, health insurance for your life abroad with ExpatInsure, and Expatsi scouting trips with Ikiah McGowan. There is also a facilitated networking session with Lora Hassen, and a closing wine tasting reception where you can ask the speakers anything one on one.

My Session: Living Well in Ecuador

I will be speaking about the country I have helped more than 2,500 people move to since 2011: Ecuador. Not the postcard version - the real one. What it actually costs to live well there, how a couple can live comfortably on around $1,500 a month, and how residency really works.

For example, in 2026 the pensioner visa requires a lifetime government pension of at least $1,446.00 USD per month, and the temporary residency visa is valid for two years and renewable. After 21 months of temporary residency you can apply for permanent residency. I will walk you through what these paths look like in practice, the honest difficulties, and the mistakes I have watched people make in 17 years of doing this work - so you do not have to make them.
