The worst of the pandemic is finally behind us and 2023 is shaping up to be the year that world travel officially bounces back. It’s time to return to our favorite travel destinations, and to find new top ones to explore. Our list doesn’t hold back with aspirational trips and the potential for luxury travel. We are including some bucket list destinations for the adventurous. But we also have an old favorite that you can go back to again and again.
ABOUT US: We are a couple who retired early in order to travel and enjoy life. We spend half our time in Washington DC and the other half in extended slow travel all over the world. Our philosophy is to “travel wide” but also to “travel deep” which means really getting to learn the stories unique to the destinations that we visit. Join us for the journey.

❓ Answer to the trivia question at the end of the video: “The Meroites built temples, palaces and royal baths in their capital, but their greatest achievements were the more than 200 tall, slender pyramids built at the necropolis at Meroë, giving Sudan more pyramids than all of Egypt (255 in total compared to Egypt’s 118).”

Well done. Your narrative is nicely scripted. I love these ideas. I like when you also provide personal info and additional POV. You are both intesting and inspirational.
