How to do it? Probably almost as many possible answers as there are travelers. My approach may not work for others, or they may find it distasteful:

1. Pay off all debts including late wife's medical bills.
2. Get rid of TV and car; learn to bicycle or walk everywhere. (Bus/train/car rental/plane only when time is a problem.)
3. Get medical care from the U.S. Veteran's Administration instead of expensive insurance.
4. As soon as children are on their own, retire, sell the house, and hit the road.
5. Avoid hotels and expensive cities.
6. Stay long enough in one place to rent a room or a tiny apartment instead of by-the-night costs.

This allowed me to relocate eleven times, plus six two-to-ten-day visits to other places. Spent about US$ 31,000 (including gifts/meals for other people) so far—603 days.
