My father was a pilot, so I was born with travel in my blood. I began traveling solo at the age of four (when I wandered out of eyesight of my house one day), and since then I've continued to make exploring the world a priority while pursuing careers in both operations management and executive coaching. My mom and I took our first overseas vacation together when Mom was sixty-four, and in the more than twenty years since then, we've logged over 300,000 miles (and counting!). In response to the lack of available resources on the subject of seniors traveling with their adult children, I began publishing Travel with Aging Parents (www.travelwithagingparents.com) in 2013, a blog that chronicles the triumphs (and challenges) of intergenerational travel with an encouraging “you-can-do-this” flair.
