Intergenerational programs, designed to include grandkids or other children, are also on the slate, as are charitable projects to provide such services as building homes for the poor. Some Elderhostelers meet and marry. Others create friendships that extend for life. Virtually everyone expands their horizons. That much TV isn t for me.
Life is just too exciting.
Mitzi Soman has used Elderhostel to feed not just a passion for culture and history but a love of horses. We met the trainers. We got to see where they breed horses. We even got to pet the horses. Elderhostel gets you into places you d never get on your own.
