Hello all, 

My name is Matthew. I am 24 years old and I just joined AARP this month. I really enjoy the videos and challenges. I am learning and thinking a lot about my physical, mental, and financial health these days. 

I travel a lot. In the past few years, I have lived in Los Angeles, Austin, Little Rock, and abroad in Turkey. I am planning on going on a months-long road trip very soon that will take me from Little Rock to New England and everywhere in between. My other hobbies include exercising & yoga, volunteering, urbanism & cities, museums, and reading. My current job is doing food delivery. Previously, I worked at a mall, as a street cleaner, and sold luxury accessories online.  

A consequence of my lifestyle is that I do feel lonely often. I would like to start participating in some of these forums. If anyone wants to talk or be pen-pals (I love to send letters and postcards), feel free to message. Something that I learned from AARP articles is that inter-generational friendships can be very beneficial and meaningful. 

Hope to talk to some of you soon! Thank you for reading my first post.

Welcome, Matthew! Great to share with you!

Unfortunately major issues going on with AARP IT they won't admit or deny so most of us are in rebel mode right now 😉 but chat soon?
