Adventurous Retirement about Adventures in Style for Less<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"Ecuador<\/a>How Adventurous Retirement started<\/em><\/strong><\/h4>\n

Adventurous Retirement about Adventures in Style for Less provides info from our world travels, sharing  – about clean, comfortable places to stay, outdoor adventures, good food, cultural sites, and worthwhile physical activities.<\/p>\n

Our endeavor – Adventurous Retirement, about Adventures in Style for Less, is to share our adventures with others and introduce people to new and fun venues, both free and for reasonable fees.<\/p>\n

About Us
\n<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

As some of you know, Tom retired at the end of January 2015.  I (Wendy), on the other hand, am still working and pretending to be retired some of the time. After running a business for over 25 years and working for almost 40 years, I am ready to work a bit less too. So, we\u2019ve decided to travel some, from here forward until we can\u2019t anymore.<\/p>\n

Tom worked as a professional in the pharmaceutical industry for the majority of his career. Tom is a Chemical Engineer, with technical interests in computers and all things mechanical.  He loves the outdoors and is a cyclist, as well as our grounds keeper.<\/p>\n

I am a professional working with corporations on organizational and leadership change and transformation, and turned 60 in 2015. I expect to continue working while we travel. I have cut back from my crazy 60-80 hour work weeks and, while we travel, I will work virtually.  I plan to do less project work while I manage the business.  Once back at home, I work a less intense 40 hour work week.<\/p>\n

We live in an area rife with adventures whether you are retired or not, and for all activity levels. It\u2019s on the water, in the country, halfway between Philadelphia and New York where the US impressionist painters started.  The area is so beautiful that I call it \u2018eye candy.\u2019<\/p>\n

Our Accommodation Preferences – Adventurous Retirement about Adventures in Style for Less
\n<\/strong><\/h2>\n

We like to travel in comfort, and prefer clean and attractive surroundings with a somewhat rustic environment.  We are not \u2018Ritz Carlton\u2019 travelers, and never will be, as those surroundings are too formal for us. Our preferences are for comfortable, out-of the-way, interesting, casual places to stay at reasonable rates.  If you prefer the same, our accommodation picks may be just what you are looking for.  If you enjoy high end accommodations, you may still like our sea, land, food and cultural adventures.  So stay tuned and travel with us and our followers through this blog.<\/p>\n

We look forward to sharing our adventures and insights with you, so you can use what we learn(ed) to inspire your travels!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
