SeniorSoloTravel - Videos description on YouTube:

Sharing journeys as a senior traveling solo! My goal is to share the pros and cons of my journeys through the lens of a senior traveler, including difficulty in terrain, ease of travel logistics, and amount of time needed to explore destinations. I also want to share travel tips and other useful information for senior and solo travelers.
