Residence hopping in Europe?

Any ideas for American retiree wanting to live in UK and nearby country? Two small places…one in UK, one in Ireland or France and staying 180 days at a time? Any way to get flexibility in stays?

@swfreply yes but of course, you would need to have residecy status, both of which are offered in EU and UK, if you want to pay for it.

Non passive visa/D7 is out of the question for you for Europe as you need to spend most of the year there, unless you want to.

UK, you could go for the startup visa.

There are combinations that will meet your requirements.
