Dear Ageless Travelers

This Travel Tuesday is about getting out of your comfort zone.

Check out our website’s latest blog, Don’t Let Your Dreams Be Killed in the Comfort Zone. It will inspire you to try something new and transformative.

Here are a few simple ways to get into your UN-COMFORT Zone!:

​

1. Try a new hobby or interest. I discovered Texas County Music and embraced it along with my beloved jazz. See our free eBook, The Texas Country Music Companion.

​

2. Check off your bucket list. Come with me to Africa for The Ageless Traveler’s first group trip. Africa changes everyone; be amazed.

​

3. Do something hard for you, even if you do it poorly. Read my urgent alert inviting you to come on a safari with us. It’s not easy for me to ask powerfully. Let’s see how I do.

​

Let me know if you tried something different and it was uncomfortable.

​

I’d love to hear from you. fanlist.com/agelesstraveler

Never Stop Traveling

This week on The Ageless Travel Podcast, Booming Encore takes us out of our comfort Zone.

“The only limits we have are the ones we put on ourselves.” Susan Williams, Founder Booming Encore.

Are you ready to embrace your encore years? In our latest episode, I sat down with Susan Williams, founder of Booming Encore, to explore how to find purpose and meaning in retirement.

Discover ikigai, a Japanese philosophy that encourages you to discover what you love, what you are good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for doing.

Williams also shares insights from the book Retirement Heaven or Hell, which documents the journey of Booming Encore contributor Mike Drak. His experience highlights the importance of having a plan and the principles that can guide individuals back to a fulfilling life after retirement.

This comprehensive approach is not just about financial gain; it is about understanding the intrinsic value of our lives. Susan emphasizes how volunteer work contributes to the community and enriches our lives. This perspective is crucial as many of us face the reality of retirement shock, loss, and the lack of purpose after leaving the workforce.

Urgent ALERT! Safari With Us

I have researched many safari experiences and chosen the essentials of the BIG 5 adventure in Kenya and Tanzania, arranged by a 100-year-old, renowned, family-owned company, Collette Tours.

Collette offers a 14-day, excellent-value trip that starts in Nairobi. Did you know that Nairobi is named an age-friendly city? You can fly into Nairobi from anywhere worldwide and spend the first day with me, enjoying the city’s culture and cuisine.

We safari for two weeks of ANIMAL SPOTTING WITH 13 GAME DRIVES. From breakfast prepared by tribal chefs to the running of the wilder beasts, we travel comfortably at an active but manageable pace, with high-end accommodations and fully guided.

At our exclusive The Ageless Traveler pre- and post-trip Zoom meetings, you get advice on taking the pictures of a lifetime, guidance on culinary choices if you have restrictions, exercise to strengthen your walks, and the joy of fulfilling adventure dreams while making new friends.

But you need to act now. The dates are September 14-27, with an optional 4-day Tanzania with Serengeti experience. I can offer this trip until May 30th. Collette safaris get filled up quickly. We must take action to get this group trip on our own.
