Bob & Paula’s story is probably not your typical. After Bob’s successful career in management consulting and enterprise technology sales and Paula’s time on Wall Street... they found themselves in a position ready to retire and carve out the next chapter of their lives. With 45 years of marriage under their belts and no kids, the world was their oyster. They now spend 9 months a year based here in Bangkok and 3 back home in America.
