Would you like to travel around the world at what age?

I traveled around the world for just over one year when I was 20 years old. I was very lucky that I did go then when I was younger and more energetic. I let out my home to get a monthly income and got a working holiday for Australia. I bought my airline ticket with my savings and took a limited amount of money with me. During my trip I met a man and sometime later we were married. We had a son but we did get divorced. I went to university and began my career as a primary school teacher. I did another long trip of a few months when I was between two teaching contracts. However it wasn't the same as my trip when I was younger that was much longer. When I came home I had time of being poor before I began my next teaching contract. Many fellow teachers have said that they would love to travel around the world when they retire. However good health when old is not a certain thing. A couple of years ago my disabled son was born and so my life is different now to when I was a carefree 20 year old. I am pregnant again and luckily went on my trip to South Africa in January this year. I met a some older people traveling around the world by cruise ship. That would be very nice for any old person to do but only if they have loads of money. If a young person gets the opportunity to travel around the world I would say take it for there might not be another opportunity.

I'd like to travel around the world as long as I'm still in a good health condition,no matter if I'm still young or old.As long as I have a time for vacation,enough money and in a good health,I will take the trip around the world.

I agree. I was in a cruise with my family last year and I noticed that most people on board the ship were old. I was like I don't think I would want to travel the world in that age. I wanted to travel the world after college but I didn't get a chance to for financial reasons but when I did a few yrs later I did enjoy it. I can't imagine myself having the same energy and excitement if I travel the world at age 75. Two years ago we gave my parents-in-law a gift to travel to the Caribbean on a cruise also and all they talked about when they came back was the foods. There was not a lot of talk about all other activities...just some shopping and picture taking which is natural tourist instinct but my mom-in-law hated shopping because she doesn't like walking. I guess when one gets old walking is a pain in the butt. On the other hand maybe it's also good for people to travel when they're old but I can't imagine them traveling all by themselves...there's got to be families or friends traveling with them. I might still want to travel when I get old cause I will not have a lot of action going on with my life anymore...so might as well travel the world before I leave it.
