As one grows older, one climbs with surprising strides.” George Sand

So what if you're turning 70? After all, with age comes wisdom and a lot of perks. The early years of retirement can be more fruitful, fun-packed, and adventurous than any that went before, with the time and space to explore the countless possibilities that life still holds. But what should you do and where should you start? Whether learning how to play the guitar, or writing that novel you've always had in youβ€”don't just kick back in your armchair and let the golden years pass you by. There is a big, wide world out there.

This book will help you think positively, with things like this to look forward to:

  • Expand your horizons - if you want to get into surfing, go for it
  • Make a list of your top ten films and find the time to watch them
  • While you're out on the town, test the bartender's cocktail expertise
  • You've spent a lifetime learning. Put it to good use and enter local quiz competitions

Also available in the series:
