No problem...glad to contribute

How are you handling the travel health care insurance. Above 70 years of age it seems pretty high.
I don't know...I am 72 years ago and my last trip was in 2018 ... so I was under 70 then. Well $1000 for 6 months sounds doable for me. If I really want to make the trip then I will absorb that cost.

When I traveled in France I had a ESL client (another interest) and I stayed most of the time at their residence. I found it not that expensive to travel there as long as you stayed away from hotels in major cities and were frugal with your meals. I stayed in 1 star hotels which were cheap (40 euros/night including breakfast), I traveled by train on which if you had a bicycle you were allowed to take it on board.

I almost decided to retire to France. over those 3 years I became functional in French.

If you followed Soup Nazi's Covid thread you will find out my struggles with catching COVID 18 months ago. This hampers my travel today...I can walk with one of the canes that I make but very slowly. If this disease ever eases up I will tke a cruise to the arctic...from both sides of the country... as an industrial salesman I have seen most of Canada west of Montreal and even been into the Arctic on a drilling rig but I would like to see the arctic in comfort and not have to walk a lot.

as far as health insurance goes...I cannot afford NOT to take it... getting old now and this COVID has not improved that.
