Learn to Love Slow Travel: Tips from a Recovering Tourist

5 days ago | sixtyandme.com | Cathy Bennett Kopf

How many countries have you visited? I’ve logged 33 to date, a discovery I made after mapping them with Pin Traveler. The app makes it super simple to track the wonderful places I’ve explored. Pinning destinations was a trip down memory lane. A blurry one, at times. It’s not that I don’t remember my travels. It’s just that I habitually arrive in a new destination and assault it with a checklist of must-sees, must-dos and must-eats. My vacations are exhausting.
The Gift of Music

The first time I held a musical instrument changed me. The tiny 12-bass accordion came down from the attic, unplayed since my mom was a child.

Besides practicing 30 minutes every day, my sister and I were responsible for keeping the dark wood dust-free – no easy task on a busy hog farm.

5 New York State Regions Rich in Culture, Nature and Charm

1 month ago | sixtyandme.com | Cathy Bennett Kopf

When I say “New York,” do you picture a city skyline, Broadway theaters and the Statue of Liberty? It’s not surprising that these iconic New York City images spring to mind. But New York State has nearly 55,000 square miles to explore. And most of it looks and feels very different than Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island and “da” Bronx, my birthplace. The Empire State has mountains and forests, Main Streets and farms.

How My Views of Climate Change Influence My Travel Choices

1 month ago | sixtyandme.com | Cindy Richards

Of all the things I have decided to change thanks to climate change, here’s one I never previously considered: Booking my flights differently. Why? Because I can no longer trust the weather to cooperate. Even today. It’s early spring in Chicago, and I’m sitting at O’Hare International Airport writing this blog rather than winging my way to Paris.
