(5/1/24) Anyone been on a VOLUNTEER VACATION or interested? I have not but may look into it. Lol, getting too old for some stuff!!!
One growing area of tourism has come to be known as volunteer tourism or voluntourism (sometimes referred to as volunteer travel). This combines the traditional aspects of tourism with voluntary service. In some cases, it can be related to sustainable tourism and sometimes to ecotourism.

(4/29/24) Anyone doing any DAY TRIPS this year? ๐ค
I prefer them so I am back in my bed that night. Hate hotels.
My FAVORITE day trip so far has been to Lexington, Virginia. One hour away from where I live in Cave Spring, Virginia.

(4/27/24) I am still WORKING ON visiting ALL the locations in BOTH Virginia and Florida with my daughter as my "chauffer"...
Since "retiring" in July 2020, living in BOTH Virginia and Florida (as of May 2023) - this has been a DREAM of mine.

Hey there, Spring!
I'm hoping to travel to Panama within the next 5 or so months; have been checking into the culture, languages, lifestyle there, and pretty positive results.
Would so appreciate anyone currently there or with experience there offering their advise.
Thanks in advance, and happy travels!

My husband and I just finished a 3 month road trip. We pet sit around the USA and Europe. We started in our hometown of Asheville NC and drove to southern California and back and had pet sits along the way. It's a great way to travel and really cuts down on expenses. In 4 weeks we head to Austin TX for a 3 week pet sit. We love Austin!

IIf you would like any further information from a pet sitter point of view, we have a website SitStayTrips.com. I set it up when we first started pet sitting. I just started a blog on how we became pet sitters after we retired. We are members of TrustedHousesitters.

Favorite location to pet sit? We have some favorite pet sits we like to go back to, this one in Austin is at the top of our list. We tend to head to the West and Southwest. We were in southern California for a great pet sit with an incredibly good dog and fell in love with the area. Seattle is somewhere we're always looking to get back to. Europe again is on our radar.
