1. Travel
- On the night of my last day in the office I flew to the UK, to Windsor and then London. Shortly after my return, I attended the Bogleheads conference (BH13) and then flew to Chicago.
- For 2015 I am planning trips to Spain (el Camino de Santiago), Louisville KY, Berlin, Seoul, Novy Sad (Serbia), and BH14.
- Next winter, I want to hitchhike to Antarctica.

2. Education
- Coursera and other MOOCs
- Teaching Company's courses
- Books and academic papers in my areas of interest

3. Events: lectures, seminars, conferences
- Numerous events in D.C.
- On-line, e,g., TED, YouTube, podcasts on my topics of interest
- Travel to some events

4. Creating
- I had an idea of creating a new "thing" which I had to put on hold for the reasons beyond my control. I will return to this idea when (if) the circumstances change.
- I want to try my hand in writing books, nonfiction and fiction.

5. Hiking
- I am walking with a backpack in preparation to el Camino walk.
- After el Camino, I will continue hiking locally and internationally.

I'm so far from retirement, I have no idea what condition I will be in.

If i retired tomorrow. I would do next to nothing until may, and then explore the states by motorcycle until I can't go anymore, or I've seen everything. Sounds magical, now I just need to fund the time and money piece.

That's a plan for the next winter. I started a Bogleheads thread about this.

Mostly I tour around on my bicycle.

Generally, I am either planning a bike tour, riding my bike on tour, or writing up the journal of a recent tour. You can read all my journals here.

Currently, I am planning a tour of northern Italy. I leave April 7.

Volunteering
Hunting
Hiking
Staying (or getting) in shape
And trumping all those would be spending time with kids/grandkids

H is doing a lot of deferred maintenance and trying to figure out what car he wants to buy once he cleans out the carport. He is enjoying researching the different cars and the pros/cons of each. We are also doing some traveling with his classmates and friends. We have been to Niagra Falls, DC, San Diego, SF, LA, and soon Korea and back to Chicago. and Denver, plus New Mexico and Yellowstone We are going to several conferences as well.

We are also enjoying a lot of take out and restaurant meals. Life is good! I'm still running my nonprofit, as long as it remains fun and is helping folks. We seem to both be pretty content.

4 years into retirement and these are things that have consumed a lot of my time:
- Volunteer work, mostly with a Christian missionary
- On board of a retiree association from my former employer, involved in programs and issues of concern for retirees
- Church related ministries
- Go to Y at least 3 times a week
- Play golf 1 or 2 times a week
- Home improvements, first 2 years this consumed a lot of time but now running out of things to update
- Caring for my elderly mother (she has now passed)
- Some travel, most notably a trip to the Holy Land last year (Israel and Jordan). I am glad I went last year instead of this year.

The first 2 to 3 years of my retirement were really busy. It was almost like I was still working. The last year or so, things have slowed down and I need to get involved in some more activities. I can only indulge in leisure so much.

IMO, the most important thing in planning your retirement is to get involved in activities of interest to you.

I plan on continuing my many hobbies when I retire:

1. Woodworking

2. History
-continue to research the history of my hometown (I am already designated the town historian)
-continue on local museum Board of Directors

3. Writing
-have already written my own book, one chapter of the 2nd Bogleheads book, and 55 short story ebooks on investing
-have just starting writing short ebooks on local history

4. Genealogy
-I have researched and published 4 photo scrapbooks on our family's history
-continue with more research

5. Grandchildren
-the 1st one is due in July, should be fun

6. Financial Planning
-continue to act as financial advisor for many family members
-maybe take on some more non-family people as financial planning clients

Travel is my number one thing to do in retirement. I plan to visit all possible countries before I die. I have visited all 50 U.S. states long time ago so domestic travels will not be important.

I do have a problem with my plan. My wife likes to stay at all inclusive resorts (vacation), but I like travel from places to places. We did one or two new countries per year because my teenager son did not want to go anywhere with us and we could not leave him at home. Fortunately, he just got his college admission letter last week. I have already planned to double our overseas travels starting this year (by setting aside money).

Check out a book The Happiness of Pursuit by Chris Guillebeau in which he describes how he has visited all countries by the age of 35.

Thanks, Victoria. I will take a look at the book, although the author's previous book is: The $100 Start-Up.

1. Stay physically active for as long as possible
- Work out regularly
- Hike and bicycle in the summer
- Snowshoe and ski in the winter

2. Do more woodworking than I have time for now
- Build furniture for our home
- I'd like to find something small that I can build and sell at the local markets, jewelry boxes perhaps

3. Grow and raise more of our own food
- We'll have a big vegetable garden, and a couple greenhouses
- Raise chickens for eggs and meat
- Have a mini-cow for milk

4. There will be plenty of things to keep us busy around the property
- Cutting firewood and generally tending to the forest
- Snow removal

5. Volunteer
- Not sure what I'll do, but one thought is to volunteer at a local aviation museum and invention center (http://www.birdaviationmuseum.com/). I am an engineer, and have worked in aviation for the past 20 years or so, so there may
be a fit there.

6. Fish and hunt. Great trout, steelhead and kokanee salmon fishing in the area, and we'll able to hunt deer and turkey right on our property.

That's a start anyway. I don't think I"ll have any trouble keeping busy.

Start cooking. Right now, I don't cook. I'm reading In Defense of Food, and he's got me convinced I need to stop eating processed food, start buying fresh vegetables and learn how to cook them. I plan to join a CSA this summer.

5. Reading the newspaper, many books feeds my brain
6. Cooking for pleasure
7. Extra time and energy being supportive in practical ways to my young adult children
8. Socializing a lot more including hosting game nights and cooking together with friends

How do you plan on spending your time during retirement?
Doing whatever I want to do.

Retiree's wife: What are you going to do today?
Retiree: Nothing.
Retiree's wife: But that is what you did yesterday!
Retiree: Yes dear, but I didn't finish.

Now the truth, since 2005 retirement has been the best years of my life:
Backpacking (over a thousand miles one year) using lightweight equipment including a hammock, when the weather is good, because I can wait at home for a storm to pass, then go out for 4-5 days before the next one arrives. I head home, out of the mountains, when I see cirrus clouds.

Volunteering at the local National Forest Service office
Volunteering with a statewide trail maintenance group
Picking up roadside litter (because I can)
Taking a nap after lunch
Reading books cover to cover in one long day, since I don't have to go to bed on time in order to get up on time.
Seeing sunrises and sunsets because I have the time to look at them
Cooking is a hobby that I enjoy with the benefit of eating healthier than the rich foods at most restaurants
Cleaning up the kitchen afterwards, to be nice to Dear Wife
Hanging out with friends because we have time to visit
The theme of my retirement has been having the time to do what I like to do.

How I spend my weekends, but everyday:

Upcoming weekend is a trip to Catalina for diving and exploring
Last weekend was a dive boat to Anacapa Island for 3x SCUBA dives (got certified last Dec to share my DG's passion)
Weekend before that was a road trip to SLC for skiing/snowboarding
Sometime before that was Joshua Tree climbing trip (lots of other times in late fall too)
Some surfing was done somewhere in there too

etc

:D

Oh, but we'd be able to travel further and for longer :D

As mentioned a few times in other posts, I plan to setup and run more free clinics and orphanages in developing countries. See some patients on a part time basis when back in the US. I cannot imagine doing anything else with my life, it is simply what I was born to do. See my signature. :happy

My father's identical twin, a surgeon, felt that way about the practice of medicine. It was a gift to him and those who depended on him. My town recently lost a beloved pediatrician in his 80s. I asked him once if he planned to retire, and he replied: "what, and give up the best job in the world?"

There is a tension between having a single pursuit and diversifying across several interests. A single pursuit enables one to mobilize all his energy and achieve significant results. But it may also destroy one if the access to the pursuit disappears. People who are unhappy in retirement are likely those who don't have diverse interests. As working forever may not be possible, it's optimal to retire early when there is still time and energy to do a variety of things. One of these things can still be the primary theme.

This logic applies even to physicians, as another BH thread attests.

Ok Victoria. Please let me add the following activities, when time permits : learning more about personal finance, switching from playing my classic guitar to my new electric guitar, and visiting my homeland in Europe. I am also a movie fan, would like to learn how to cook, as well as learn more about astrophysics, etc. and of course, keeping posting on my favorite website : the bogleheads forum. How does this sound? :happy

Looks like I should add something more here: fishing, cooking, and eating fish; tasting street foods anywhere I go; playing slot machines at casinos. All these activities can be done myself. I also like playing cards with my friends if they will be there in retirement.

I retired in 2009 at age 58. I spend my time differently now than what I had expected. This is what I am doing:
1. I was chosen to be the music director at my Church over a year ago. I am responsible for leading the music part of our 3 services each week.
2. I take voice and piano lessons originally from a local teacher but now using Skype with my younger son, who has BM and MM degrees in piano performance, as my teacher.
3. I am studying music theory through online college courses taken online -- I am taking these courses for credit.
4. I grow vegetables year round in our central Florida retirement community garden plot and in 28 earthboxes behind our house. I am in the gardens from 2 to 4 hours a day.
5, Do all the shopping with my wife as she doesn't drive.

As little as possible.

Actually, I work out 4-5 days a week; run the dog (a greyhound) on the beach; ride my bike; go out to eat lunch and shop with my wife; read free science fiction on the iPad; discover our new town and neighbors; travel. Hardest thing? Getting a designer to work with us to do renovations on our new home.
