Travel and adventure for the over 50s
Don’t stop now – there are more adventures to be had!
You might not be welcome on the 18 to 35 backpacker tour (though it could be a hoot and could they really stop you?) but you’re never too old to enjoy yourself and learn every day. There are only so many weeks left (regardless of your age) so get out there. Use it or lose it!

Activities for retirement
Have you thought about?
- taking a cooking class or two
- learning a new language (or improving your own)
- taking art classes
- pilates or yoga
- a new hairdo
- a new set of makeup and learning application method
- taking up patchwork
- photography
- or, maybe, taking up running or cycling (sorry, but it seems to be the latest Lycra thing) – a medical check first though!
