Get Packing: If Not Now, When?
()
About this ebook
Is there adventure in your soul? Is there adventure but maybe it's been tempered by the notion that you are too old to wander around the planet hefting not much more than a backpack and a large dose of optimism? If so, take heart.
This book is a most important read for you!
It's filled with tips, inspiration, stories and lots of excellent reasons to follow your senior citizen heart into the great unknown. You'll find lots of support and understanding if your "unknown" happens to be just a tad outside the comfort zone typically accept in your circle of retired friends.
If you have dreamed of travel and due to advanced years, finally have the time and freedom to go, you're almost certain to have some fun between these covers.
Maybe you fit the description of a would be vagabond, but believe the cost of extended travel transforms your hot fantasies to see the world into a mere pipe dream. You just might find enlightenment between these covers and discover some schemes that could, with a bit of boldness, enable you to fly away into your dreams.
This book will NOT send you off to tour 13 countries in 30 days with backpack, tent, cookware and sleeping bag. It is intended to keep you sleeping in clean beds, blending into wonderful cultures, avoiding highway robbers and maybe seeing only two or three countries in a whole year. It does not promote "seeing" other lands as much as it promotes "being" in amazing foreign countries where you can really absorb the culture and color of at least some of the rest of the planet from an up close and personal perspective.
So kick back in your easy chair with your favorite beverage in hand, put your feet up and enjoy the ride. You may put this book down after the unusual trip is finished, sigh and still be singing to yourself the old familiar refrain, "Well, I can dream, can't I?"
On the other hand, you might say instead, "Where can I get a quick passport and a cheap backpack? I'll be leaving Now."
Well, if not now, when?
Linda DeBlanco
Linda DeBlanco was born in Hollywood, California in the golden days of tinsel town. She grew up and went through school surrounded by movie studios in Burbank, where she married and had two children. Divorcing after nine years of domestic bliss and leaving behind the typical housewife life, she entered the world of business in Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties where she successfully earned big bucks, raised her kids and seemed to have it all. Everything but peace and happiness, that is. At 43 she set out to unravel her life and determine why everything EXCEPT happiness was easily within her reach. The important lessons she learned are the essence of SUPERMOM: The Lost Child. Profiting from her enlightenment far more than monetarily, Linda now lives peacefully and happily ever after as a retiree, on the shores of beautiful Lake Atitlan in the foothills of Guatemala.
