Travel

You can travel the world, spend time with family and friends, or just kick back and relax at home. Whatever your final decision, traveling is one of the best ways to experience new places, meet new people and allow yourself to explore something that you might not have had the chance to before retiring.

Health

Having the right lifestyle habits can have an enormous impact on the quality of your life, but it’s important to start them before you get too old and can’t do it yourself.

How to Maintain Your Health as You Age, that will help you in caring for yourself in all areas from nutrition to mental health to physical fitness and exercise. This comprehensive guide will give you tips and tricks on how to take care of yourself and how to make sure you stay healthy no matter what your age!

Spoil Ourselves

As we get older, there are certain things we can look forward to receiving as gifts (and others we should hope we don’t receive). Many people believe that once you reach the golden years of life, your needs are all taken care of and you don’t need anything else. While it’s true that your basic needs should be taken care of, it doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy some spoiling every now and then.

My name is Jorge and I’m writing this blog to provide life experiences, personal growth, and informative subjects that are relative for an older generation. With my 50+ years of living I have a lot of stories to tell, thoughts to share, and facts to uncover!

Appearing old enough to remember what life was like long before cell phones, the internet, and digital devices became as common as they are today, I’m often asked to share my wisdom with younger generations who struggle to figure out how to use all these technologies without missing out on important social opportunities in real life. Here are some of the most important things I’ve learned during my lifetime that can help any young adult develop into a more well-rounded individual and get the most out of their life.

  1. Hello Mr. Elliot from New Caney, Texas, what I can remember from being in Houston Texas many years ago was the unbearable heat, but I do remember the kindness I received from everyone I came into contact with. I’m so glad you reached out to me, it’s always great getting feedback from my readers. All the best to you and yours.

  3. Why is there so much about Portugal? Is that all you know in this great big world? You should write about other places too.

    1. Good day Ms. Newbill, to answer your question, I write about what I’m passionate about, this is my new home, I lived in Toronto, Canada most of my life, and no where compares to Portugal. No worries I will eventually move to other interesting places. Thanks so much for your email, feel free to contact me anytime with any suggestions.
