Cape Town wasn’t just another stop on our travels—it was the place that opened our eyes to a whole new way of living. In this episode of Your Time To Travel Podcast, we share how exploring South Africa’s beauty, culture, and unforgettable safari experiences influenced our decision to embrace the slow travel lifestyle as 50+ travelers.

From Table Mountain and Cape Point to the vineyards and our first safari, every moment taught us the value of slowing down, living with less, and creating experiences over possessions.

If you’ve ever thought about traveling differently—or even retiring abroad—this episode is for you.

Slow travel is often painted as a dream lifestyle filled with endless adventure, freedom, and new cultures. But here’s the truth: it’s not always picture-perfect. 🌍✨

In this episode, we get real about the less glamorous side of slow traveling after 50—from visa headaches and inconsistent Wi-Fi to missing family, dealing with health concerns, and adjusting to cultural differences. These aren’t the stories you often hear, but they’re a big part of what makes the journey real.

Join us as we share the challenges we’ve faced, the lessons we’ve learned, and how we push through the tough moments to keep living the slow travel lifestyle we love.

What happens when two 50+ travelers decide life is too short to wait for “someday”? In this very first episode of the Your Time To Travel Podcast, we share our story of selling nearly everything we owned, packing just two suitcases and a golf bag, and hitting the road with our dog Bennie to live a life of slow travel and freedom.

We open up about:
✅ The turning point that made us rethink the 9-to-5 grind
✅ How we overcame fear and doubt to finally take the leap
✅ Downsizing our home, belongings, and mindset for a life of adventure
✅ What slow travel really means (and why it’s perfect for 50+ travelers)
✅ The excitement, challenges, and lessons of starting fresh abroad

This is more than a travel podcast—it’s about creating a life you don’t need a vacation from.
