John & Bev
We created our YouTube channel and website as a way to pivot our lives in retirement toward a new and exciting adventure. We love what we are creating and the personal growth we have gained through working together to create Retirement Travelers. We hope you feel inspired to create a new life for yourselves through world travel. Remember, You are never too old to set a new goal or dream a new dream! (C.S. Lewis)
