What's included in the Program
This program guides you through the 5 steps on How to be a Global independent Traveler as a youthfully minded Boomer. The program sets out to identify our purpose to travel as much as it is about the how to. Let's be honest here…. We are creatures of habit. We get stuck in our comfort zone. Often, our dreams become overshadowed by our fears. I know. I experience this as well… what if this happens, what if that, I'm too old…. . But the important thing is other people just like you and I are right now enjoying the experience as a Global independent Traveler. So why not you?
Which means if you are new to independent travelling, it's now your turn to start. If you are a more experienced traveller then it's time to take it to the next level.
What’s included in the program…
In Module 1 we seek to clarify your preferred style and purpose to travel, myths of travel, and what may be stopping you
Module 2 looks at all the essentials of planning your adventure including choosing a destination, flights, accommodation, travel insurance, visas and what you need to get organised for your adventure.
Module 3 discusses some of the smarts of travel such as solo travelling, how to travel longer for less cost and earning an income while travelling.
Module 4 discussed the essentials of travelling including all the pre departure activities. What to pack, managing your money, using technology. And how to make the most of your time on arrival. It's where the fun begins. We're finally there. So, we look at how to make social connections, activities to do as well as financial survival tips and how to travel safely.
Module 5, is perhaps the most important step. How to keep your dream alive. It's easy to have big ideas, but what do we need to do stop them from being just a good idea at the time.
And as Bonus, this bonus module looks at the benefits of the ultimate cultural immersive experience - living like a local
No matter what stage of travel you are at, whether completely new or looking to extend your level of travel experience, I hope this program will enlighten you with each step to give you the knowledge and confidence to explore the exciting opportunities that a Global independent Traveler has to offer. Above all, I want you to feel empowered to have the courage to live your travel dreams.
