"This book gave me permission to finally live. At 68, I thought my adventurous days were behind me. Mary proved me wrong."
"Finally, a travel book that doesn't ignore the realities of aging. Mary addresses arthritis, medications, mobility issues—all the things no one else talks about."
"I spent three years researching destinations. This book gave me everything I needed in one place—and the courage to actually book the trip."
"Mary writes like she's your wise friend who's been everywhere you want to go. Honest, practical, and deeply inspiring."
"I was terrified to travel alone at 70. This book walked me through every fear and showed me it was possible. I'm currently in Portugal living my best life."
"The science convinced me. The stories inspired me. The practical advice got me on a plane. Now I'm living in Mexico, pain-free for the first time in years."
