I'm 69. Here's what I'd tell my 30 year old self about travel

After visiting 85 countries and all 50 states, there are a few travel lessons I wish someone had told me when I was 30. I spent years waiting. Waiting for more vacation time. Waiting for more money. Waiting for work to slow down. Waiting until retirement. Waiting to follow my curiosity. Waiting for the perfect travel companion. What I've learned is that the biggest travel regrets aren't usually the trips you took, they're the trips you never took. In this video, I'm sharing 7 pieces of travel advice I would give my 30-year-old self, including: ✈️ How to travel with limited vacation time 💰 Why you don't need a huge budget to see the world 🏖️ The mistake that ruined part of my beach vacation 🎆 My biggest travel splurge regret in Sydney, Australia 🦘 Why I didn't wait until retirement to spend a month in Australia 🗺️ How curiosity led me all the way to Russia 🚢 The solo trip that changed the way I travel forever If you're retired, approaching retirement, or simply dreaming about your next adventure, I hope these lessons inspire you to stop waiting and start exploring.
