Make a list of things to do around the house, anything that needs doing. Make a list of places to visit, friends to have a coffee and a chat with. Volenteer work. Discover your local and city area. You will be surprised at what is out there you may not have done or thought about.

Hi Tricia
I’ve been medically retired for over 3 years now. I was a registered nurse before I had to retire. We spent 8 years travelling and working around oz which we really enjoyed
Glad to know you had a good time traveling around the country! If you have anything from these travels you would like to share, we would love to see! :)
