You know all those wonderful women travel bloggers out there? The beautiful, fresh, young and vivacious young women? The ones that you just know can walk into a room anywhere in the world and instantly make BFF's? Yeah well that's not me. I'm in my early 60's, single, slightly overweight, neurotic, suffering through bouts of shyness balanced with occasional attacks of fearlessness. As I was trolling through travel blogs for the past few months looking to see if there was a place for me in this blogsphere, I realized I never saw "me" in any of them. So I figured I'd share my kind of travelling, including the inner journey that I go through to travel. Maybe some woman somewhere might be inspired to step out of her comfort zone and onto the road, thinking "Hell if she can do it so can I!". Plus I might supply comic relief for those amazing young women that roam the earth with such courage and confidence. They are the ones that inspire me. I discovered travelling late-ish and have been trying to catch up ever since. My job, driving a truck for Canada Post, feeds my body while creating pottery and travelling feeds my spirit. I'm looking forward to retiring in 2.5 years and travelling full time. Please check out my Traveling Crone blog. You can also reach me via email.
