Travel Blog Summaries

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!

Travel Blog Summaries

With well over 500 travel blog posts, it may sometimes be hard to know where to start.  And sometimes all that was needed was a summary.  Or a starting point with links to access detailed travel blogs post.

Travel blog summaries cover a variety of dimensions:

1) City visit summaries covered travel where we were based in a major city.  The summary blog post provided an overview of what we did on our stay:  city exploration, food, accommodations, day trips and tips for visiting.  

2)  While RetiredAndTravelling generally did not do hotel reviews, we loved to share the details of hotels and customer service that exceeded expectations.  The Hotel Stays menu shares some of those experiences!

3) For travel trips that included multiple stops in cities, towns and nature sites, we often included a summary travel trip blog post that covered the itinerary and major things that we saw or did during the trip.

4) At the end of the year, we published a “year in review” blog post that detailed the travel statistics  and places we visited that year.  It is a master index for our year of travel.  We also publish a travel blog post that details the travel for the coming year.  That was often aspirational in nature.  And was not updated as our travel plans changed in the year.

Each of the summary travel blog posts is rich in links.  And photos that will tease you to dig into the detailed blog posts.

Where are we now?

We enjoyed 8 days in Barcelona and then a cruise with Oceania Cruises for 12 days through Spain, the Canary Islands and into Portugal on our return trip to Spain and Portugal.  We landed in Lisbon and now will enjoy travelling around the country for almost 5 weeks.  We are so excited to finally to be back in Portugal again!

Our second stay in Portugal is in the Algarve at the great Pine Cliffs Resort.  We are enjoying a relaxing stay and exploring along the coast.

Follow along on social media as we travel.

Continuing to publish the backlog of travel posts we had in “draft”.  We hope this will help to keep you thinking about travel.  And planning your next escapes for when you feel it is safe to travel again.  Please stay healthy and safe!
