How A Personal Travel Advisor Can Help You Have a Happy Retirement

What does a happy retirement look like for you? Freedom to do what you want? Time to travel? Going back to school? Getting involved in the community? Or do you want to just continue working on projects that you enjoy? Or maybe start a new business?

For many of my clients, as they enter retirement, experiences become important than things. They want to have adventures and enjoy peak experiences. As a result, experiential travel becomes an important factor in creating a happy retirement. And after all their years of hard work, they find themselves with both the means to travel and the time to travel in ways they only dreamed of when they were still working.

When I consult with new clients, I ask them about their travel dreams, they mention the desire to create memories and moments. But everyone is different, and that's why what I do as personal travel advisor is bespoke and personal. I want to know what your dreams and wishes are, and then I make them come true.

My clients travel for many different reasons, but some examples include:

• They want to re-kindle their romance with their spouse
• They want to spend time disconnecting at a meditation retreat
• They want to discover their roots
• They want to try something they’ve never done before
• They want to go somewhere they've never been
• They want to reconnect with their family members
• They want to learn something new

More and more, my clients are traveling not to see things, but to feel things. They are looking to connect emotionally with their families, their friends, and the people they meet on their travels. They want authentic experiences, and they want to feel special and taken care of. They want trips designed just for them, not picked out of a brochure.

It follows that my goal as your personal travel advisor is to go beyond your request for a quote on a cruise and to discover your travel dreams and make them come true. This is the result of collaboration and getting to know you over time, and works best when we have open conversations about what's important to you and your family.

Maybe you have an adult child who you rarely get to spend time with because their job took them far away from you. A vacation together can provide an opportunity to bond and reconnect. Multi-generational trips, while they can be a bit tricky to juggle with everyone's schedules, are priceless in terms of keeping your family together by doing something fun together every couple of years.

Now, more than ever, the time you spend with family, friends and even traveling on your own is your most valuable investment. To ensure you’re spending it wisely, take advantage of our personal knowledge, expertise, and connections around the globe to design tailored travel experiences. There’s never been a better time to invest in your life. Just as your financial advisor ensures your return on investment, we ensure your RETURN on LIFE®. From weekend getaways to longer vacations, we collaborate with you on all your travel dreams. Because it’s not about one trip of a lifetime, it’s about a lifetime of extraordinary trips.
