More and more lately, seniors have been working well passed the required age for retirement. Sometimes it is due to the fact that they simply cannot afford to retire. As well, there are others who simply enjoy working and having a busy routine. For those who simply enjoy working, they cannot picture themselves doing anything else. For them, they do not need tons of leisure activities and the best country clubs to occupy their time. They are simply following their passions.
either way, the trend of working past 65 seems here to stay. According to VP of Financial Security for AARP, Jean Setzfand, “The idea of a set retirement age at 65 is changing as companies drop pensions, and people are living longer and staying healthier.” This idea was also recently echoed by the United States Department of Labor. The DOL has seen a big spike in the number of people who work part time or full time up until age 75 and older. Currently 1.2 million or 6.9% of the people working are 75 and up. Comparatively, that rate was just 4.2% in 1990.

Celebrating our 25 years of friendship, my best friend and I went on a cruise. It was our dream to explore the world before the age of 30. The Carnival Conquest from New Orleans was truly magical. It was one of the most unforgettable experiences we had together. The ship provides all sorts of entertainment. Entertainment is found in the form of bars, restaurants and cafes. There’s so much variety that you can be as high-spirited or as low-key as you want. You’ll find dozens of activities, top-notch Vegas-style revues and a variety of nightspots, from high-energy discos to cozy piano bars. The ocean view can help you unwind and relax after a day of sightseeing. Great tasting drinks, music and dancing are good things to occupy your nights.

I met my boy friend in a coffee shop. We were already dating for two years when I found out he was married and has three kids. Never did I realize it since the beginning of our relationship. My heart was full of regrets, guilt, hatred and pain. I was sorry for his wife and kids. I broke their hearts without any intentions of doing it. I was probably blinded by love. I need to be alone, to be away from him. The Cruises from Genoa to Barcelona somehow made me forget for a while what I have been going through. I never realized traveling alone can be fun too. When I went back home, I was a totally different person. I’m stronger and a better woman now.

I’m an educator for most of my working life. But it was my travels and exploration that made my teaching style unique. When we travel anywhere, we place ourselves in a different environment with new opportunities. Travelers can enrich themselves and their lives by taking advantage of settings they have never encountered before. For the first in my life I went on a cruise. The Royal Caribbean Cruises from Baltimore had an extraordinary personal service, superb cuisine and outstanding amenities. From the warm smiles you receive as soon as you board to those who deliver our in-room spa services. They provide us with anticipatory service.
