Create Your Travel Memories in Comfort
Comfortable shoes are essential when traveling. Many seniors have suffered too many blisters and walked too many cobblestones to have patience with ill-fitting shoes they thought would wear well. Still, some travel-worthy shoes are comfortable but unattractive.
Happily, there are choices for attractive AND comfortable footwear. Women’s Wool Runners by Allbirds are a remarkable shoe — soft, lightweight, breathable, and they fit every move. Both the men’s and women’s are made from high-end Merino wool — lightweight, flexible, and comfortable. They’re available on Amazon.
Currency abroad can be confusing, so here are tips on money conversion and conversion rates. The currency converter is available from Apple apps for the iPhone. It’s free and it does the job. For other smartphones, there are Samsung’s Galaxy Apps, and from Google Play Store app for the Google Pixel smartphone.
On another note, digital cameras are great; they’re easy to use, and there’s no need to mess around with getting film developed. Canon — PowerShot SX530 16.0-Megapixel HS Digital Camera — Black. It gets high marks on Best Buy, from verified purchasers. As one user puts it, “Why travel with a $1,000 camera when you can take great pictures with this one.” Most newer-generation smartphones also take good pictures.
