RetiredAndTravelling Travel Blog
We are RetiredAndTravelling around the world. When we semi-retired early, it gave us the opportunity to travel about 6 months of the year in multiple trips. Our trips included both cruising travel and land-based travel spots. Some are short long weekend breaks. But we also cover longer trips that cover multiple cities and countries for 30 to 60 days.
When we travel we love to explore towns and nature spots. Adventure travel gets our blood moving. And we have been known to travel for food, wine tasting and to splurge on Afternoon Tea.
Our travel blog posts are in-depth and filled with pictures. Travel summaries provide an overview of trips with links to the detailed posts. We always try to offer travel tips to help you plan and enjoy the experiences when you travel.
We hope the RetiredAndTravelling travel blog will help to fuel your travel wanderlust!
Adventure Travel
Travel blog posts about fun and adventure activities. This includes a broad range of things:
1) Scuba Diving
2) Snorkeling
3) Wildlife
4) Fun Activities
5) Art and Street Art
Adventure travel for scuba diving took us to several spots in the Caribbean. We went scuba diving in iconic spots like the Red Sea in Egypt and on the Great Barrier Reef.
Snorkelling adventures cover a wider range of destinations. We try to snorkel whenever we get the chance. Snorkelling in Brazil was a fun day trip on our South America cruise.
We have experienced wildlife adventures all over the world. There were bears, eagles, sea lions and more on travels in British Columbia, along the California coast and up through Alaska. Panda bears in China were a delight to see. We found penguins the first time in South Africa. And then saw so many different groups in South America. Safaris in Africa were a great way to add the big 5 and so many more animals to our experiences.
Whenever we travel we try to find fun ways to get out and enjoy the area. We have rented boats, done helicopter tours and even went off-road on a jeep adventure.
At every spot we visit, we are always on the lookout for outdoor art. Sometimes that is amazing statue gardens. But it always includes an interesting variety of colourful street art.
