Living a joy-filled midlife through travel... Discovering Wisconsin and beyond
Hey there! I'm Lori and welcome to my midlife travel blog
Let me tell you a little bit about myself-
I live in a small town in Wisconsin and am a children's book author, mom, wife, and...
I FREAKING love to travel...
I didn't discover exactly how much until I was in my 40s. That was when I took my dream trip to Paris, and it changed my life. Travel lit me up, gave me confidence, opened doors that I never thought were possible, and introduced me to people I never would have met otherwise.
Ask anyone who knows me how much I love to talk about travel, the places I've been, the food I've eaten, and the stories I pick up along the way. It's hard to shut me up!
That's where this little midlife travel blog, Lori Loves Adventure comes in. It's a travel guide, it's travel inspiration, it's my travel stories. I am committed to encouraging and inspiring midlife women to travel as a way to rock the second half of life.
What are you waiting for? Let's go on an adventure.

Rideshare Safety Tips for Solo Women Over 50 The most important rideshare habit I use isn’t fancy. It’s the pause before I open the car door. If you’re traveling alone, especially...
The hardest part of eating alone on a trip usually isn’t the meal. It’s the first minute after I sit down. Once I learned that, solo dining over 50 got much easier. I don’t force...
Last fall, I sat in a small café with a warm mug between my hands and watched Paris wake up. A shopkeeper swept the sidewalk. A dog trotted by like it owned the street. Nothing was urgent, and that...
Riding the shuttle to the cruise port last week I struck up a conversation with an elderly couple. I asked the husband how many cruises they had been on to which he replied “this will be our 72nd...
The older I get, the less I want “adventure” to include avoidable stress. I still love checking into a hotel by myself, closing the door, and letting the quiet settle in. But I also know that a room...
