Senior Spotlight: This One Is For The Travelers

It’s one of our favorite words in the world and something that most retirees have waited their working lives for: TRAVEL! While there truly is no place like home, gaining new experiences, making new friends and visiting new places only makes home an even greater gift to come back to. This week, we wanted to share 3 travel-based articles from Next Avenue for 3 different journeys.

TRAVELING WITH A GRANDCHILD

‘How to Plan a Fun Summer Trip With Your Grandchild’

This read provides perspective on taking a trip and making memories with a grandchild! The author suggests that the age of 10 or 11 has many benefits and lists strategies to strive for success together. Making lists, setting limits and involving planning as part of the fun are great ways to start!

OUT ON YOUR OWN

‘Tips for Traveling Solo’

There is a time and place for traveling with others and a season in life where seeing the world solo is where it’s at. Solo travel offers an exceptional amount of freedom and independence, however, it can be riskier for older adults. This article offers insightful ideas for what to do before you go – and most importantly – who to tell when you’re away. Good read!

ALL ABOUT THE BOOKS

'Welcome to the Book Towns'

We have all heard of tropical getaways, luxurious cruises and beachside bungalows. But if you are an avid reader… this destination may interest you much more: explore a ‘book town.’ This article shares several hot spots for book towns in both the US and Europe. Some are bucolic small towns with cobblestone streets and seven bookstores all ion a row; others offer wooden carts spilling with romantic reads while all of them bring together readers from all walks and interests in life. You can even learn about a book that features book towns! 😉

If you have travel plans this summer, we would love to hear about them! May the trips you take and the memories you make enrich your life in ways you never imagined… in the best ways possible!

Safe travels,

Bobbi
