Slow Travel Inspiration, Tips & Real Stories After 50
Welcome to the Your Time To Travel blog — your go-to resource for practical tips, destination ideas, and real-life stories for slow travelers over 50.
We’re Karl and Tina, a 50+ couple who sold everything and launched a full-time slow travel lifestyle with two suitcases, two backpacks, a golf bag, and our dog Bennie. After decades in law enforcement, the military, and the medical field, we chose freedom — and we want to help you do the same.
