SAVINGS FOR SINGLES

SOLO travellers who book by February 28 with Cruiseco can enjoy savings on a selection of reduced or no single supplement fares on select twin cabins and suites with Fred Olsen Cruise Line. For example, sail on the 880-guest Boudicca on a 14-night Southampton return voyage "In search of the Northern Lights" via Alesund, Tromso, Alta, Bodo and Bergen departing March 8, single fares start from $2958. Or cruise the Norwegian fjords aboard Balmoral from Southampton return for 11 nights departing May 6. Single fares start from $2878. On-board gratuities are additional and payable on board.

Does your Stuff keep you from traveling?

Before I started longer term travel 2+ years ago, I decided to sell my house and stuff so I could travel far and for more than the meager 1 or 2 weeks that I considered sufficient for a 'vacation'.

Back at the  property for a few months, this is the 3rd time I am sorting, donating and selling some of the tings that I can never take with me or afford to store.  

How VERY interesting to find the items I could never give away 2 years ago are now not worth the effort to sell! 

What do you do with a full dark room set up?  A pottery wheel?  Ski boots?  
Well every time I sort the boxes they become less important.  I am now down from perhaps 75 storage boxes to 25 and counting!  

But the bigger question is:  Has the financial need to sell my house so I can travel more, really been a crutch for WHY I don't travel more……  just did 14 international weeks this year along with the 8 to 10 domestic weeks so I am much closer to my goal.

No solo supplement, see article from the web
