I gave up working about a year ago ostensibly to travel a bit more but a global problem has put paid to that in recent months!
I am often asked if I am retired but I say I am reincarnated ……this time that I now have has allowed me to learn new skills, try new activities and soon I hope get back to travelling again in earnest.
I’m one of the growing band of ‘grey’ travellers, keen to see this world before it’s too late. Us grey travellers have a pocketful of grey pounds, an empty nest and one helluva world to explore. I’m more of a flash packer suitcase trailer than a backpacker, more of an upscale guest than a budget stayer but I do have many tales to tell. I review traveller’s products and services ……..contact me on dinkytravels@gmail.com
This site will include travellers tips, tales and photos and from the middle-aged ladies of a certain age stance.
Post script – I’m not so much grey as highlighted!
Join me on this adventure!
Great website, Dawn! Love the passport tip and the beautiful photographs. Happy travelling!

Hi Dawn! I found your blog interesting and I’ve got something to ask you….
I’m gathering (inviting) a bunch of very talented but not so famous bloggers to share articles to TOAC and create something better than the Huffington Post or any other news blog.
I want you to be a part of it. Please visit our site https://yourthoughtmatters.wordpress.com/recruitments/ if this interests you.

I will expand my hiking into backpacking in the Northeast of the US as I complete research for a novel I’m writing. Then I will spend some time in the Western US before returning to South Florida for the warmth I need. But, I’m nomadic and my plans are like Jello, Lol 🙂

I’m a big fan of the USA I have much more still to see there. Hope to see Bryce, Arches, Zion etc…. but pound against dollar has been bad for a while well since BREXIT any way. Good luck in your travels, keep in touch about your novel.
