Is 74 to old
Permalink  

Hi forum, I am now in a situation whereby my accomodation option's are very few, so my question is at 74, male, and with two small dogs is it too late to take up full time caravaning

Depends on your mindset, health, finances, make 2 lists, one not nomadic and one for the road, list pros & cons of both, might make the decision easier, probably you will get better advice from people on this forum who are already nomads, John.

Age is not measured in years.

If you think you are too old then you certainly are.

If you think it is a good idea, then go for it and you will have a great time.
Cheers,
Peter

I have just turned 72, have been living and travelling around for the last 24 years, it has its ups and downs with a few problems regarding medical situations and beauracratic idiots but, even though I am able to buy back into having a base I have no interest in doing so, maybe high care when I can't keep going.
