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!

South America Travel

Travel blog posts about travel in South America, Central America and Antarctica. On land this included road trips, city visits and outdoor adventures. By sea we cruised around the coast of South America including a trip around Cape Horn.  A 20 day cruise to Antarctica was the trip of a lifetime.

South America travel included Columbia, Brazil, Argentina, Chile and Peru.

Visits to Central America were all cruise port stops – Panama, Guatemala, Belize, Honduras, Costa Rica and Mexico. This included two trips along the Panama Canal.

For geographic simplicity, Falkland Islands was included in South America and Antarctica.
