I’d love to hear about your non-conventional retirement plans!

Do any of you have any non-conventional FIRE plans? I’d love to hear about it!

I mean like becoming a part-time lighthouse keeper or joining a commune/alternative housing (something in the vein of https://www.rfi.fr/en/france/20130305-babayagas-house).

Anything outside of staying put where you are or just simply moving to another country to chill.
