In this episode we talk to Jaime and Martha DeLeon who in semi-retirement moved from a 2500 sq. ft. home to a 33 foot long trailer Wow!!!!! Can you imagine??? They said they purged a lot of "stuff" and we are so proud of them for simplifying their lives so much. I think we can all learn a thing or two from the DeLeons!

Iceland is pure beauty. Whether you love the ocean, the hot springs, the history, or the mountains, there is something for everyone. We loved our ten days traveling the Ring Road and Golden Circle. If you are lucky enough to travel there you will not be disappointed.

Hiking to the bottom of the Grand Canyon. Jun 01, 2020

Tell us about your Adventure!

Hiking to the bottom of the Grand Canyon was a bucket list item for Curt. We joined friends, Craig and Susie, and planned an amazing trip that included a stop at Arches National Park, Antelope Canyon, and Zion National Park which is home to Angel's Landing. Hiking from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon to the Colorado river and back up the next day was a grueling test of our hiking abilities that we both passed and would do again!

Iceland #1 The Golden Circle Jun 01, 2020

Show notes

Tell us about your Adventure!

Welcome to Iceland! This beautiful country is one to explore for sure! We spent ten wonderful days camping our way around the Golden Circle and the Ring Road. Iceland is home to over 800,000 sheep and only 323,00 people! We enjoyed hitting as many hot springs as we could as we traversed this wild country all while devouring as many bowls of delicious fish soup! We hope our podcast will set the fire in you to journey to the land of the North! Remember, "don't sit too soon"!

AdventuRetired Introduction Episode May 05, 2020

Show notes

Tell us about your Adventure!

This is our first and introductory podcast! We are Curt and Cindy Liljedahl, and we are so glad you found us! Here is a little background about us, your hosts! We have been married 34 years and have 60 years of teaching in the classroom between us. Curt is a retired physics teacher, diving coach, and aquatics director and Cindy is a retired elementary reading specialist! We were both born and raised on farms in Iowa and met at Iowa State University (Go Cyclones). We moved to south Texas for our careers where we lived on the Rio Grande Border for over 30 years. Retirement came with a dream to move back to our roots and find a piece of lake life. We both love to travel and experience new people and cultures so a podcast sounded like a great way to share our retired life. We hope to share our adventures as well as the adventures of other retired people we have encountered on our journey. We are always looking for new adventures so please share your retirement experience with us at AdventuRetired @gmail.com. Please subscribe to our podcast where we will drop a new show every few weeks! Until then, "don't sit too soon"!
