Where midlife meets adventure (snacks encouraged)

Welcome to Still En Route.

I’m Mary….nice to meet you here…

If you’re somewhere in midlife (or a little past it) and still itching to see more, do more, and travel with confidence – welcome. We go places here, both on the map and off it.

Still En Route is first and foremost a travel site for older travelers who like comfort, good information, and a sense of humor – because real travel is never perfectly polished (and frankly, we don’t trust anyone who claims it is).

Along the way, I also share two things that keep travel possible long-term: how to stay mentally engaged and curious, and practical, flexible ways to support a travel-forward life (without hustle culture or inspirational shouting).

If you like your advice honest, your plans adaptable, and your luggage slightly over-packed… you’re in good company.

Follow along to stay en route – or learn more about how I got here.
