Hi, I’m Mary….nice to meet you here.

Still En Route is about travel, flexible income, and building a life you don’t want to retire from. Here you’ll find practical ideas, real-life experiences, and the occasional lesson learned the hard way – all shared with a healthy sense of humor about the detours along the way.

A lot of us eventually realize that the traditional retirement script doesn’t quite fit anymore – financially, mentally, or emotionally.

And there’s no rule that says you have to stop trying new things, exploring new possibilities, or wondering what’s next – even if you’re a baby boomer like me.

Travel is part of the story here, but it’s not the whole story.

We go places here – both on the map and off it.

That might mean spending a month in Europe, trying something you’ve always wanted to try, finding a more flexible way to work, or simply figuring out what comes next.

At Still En Route, I share thoughts on designing life a little more intentionally, long-stay travel, flexible ways to earn, and creating a life that’s still growing and evolving long after we’re expected to have everything figured out.

Because this chapter isn’t about winding life down.

It’s about packing more life into your lifestyle – with plenty of possibility, the occasional questionable idea, and an ongoing commitment to comfortable shoes and realistic expectations.
