Friday Finds: Feeling Old, Wanderlust and Travel Finds

It came as a great shock to me that kids born in 1995 graduated from high school this year (and that you can drink alcohol if you were born before this date in 1991!) I finished GRADUATE school in 1995, so I was feeling very old upon hearing that news. Then I saw this post on buzzfeed: “48 Things That Will Make You Feel Old“. They will make you feel old, but they will also make you laugh – which helps you stay young according to Mind Body Green’s “5 Things that Keep us Forever Young“. I especially liked this one:

30 years later this all fits in your pocket!

Well checking out that many things to make myself feel old was depressing but humorous…in better news, getting older has its perks. The husband and I are about to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary later this year, so the travel bug is upon us!

Here are some links and deals related to travel that at least cheered me up!

I found a new website, Wanderfly, that is offers local and curated recommendations all over the world. It seems like a cool site and a great idea so I hope they make it work and I look forward to getting and contributing recommendations. Check it out here.

I also found a few links that are helpful for travel and summer time in general from Well + Good NYC: How to Eat Healthy on the Road and How to Fit Fitness into Your Vacation. I always bring healthy snack on flights and car trips and liked the idea of using Happy Cow to search out new vegan spots in cities (or try the Good Food Near You app I recommended a few posts ago.

And some travel related deals:

Here is return offer from Bloomspot. I bought this about 6 weeks ago and recently found an awesome deal for a friend in NYC (saved her over $100/night) – so it seems to be worth $10 for sure:

This deal is just $10 for a 1 year membership to Last Minute Travel Club. Access to discounts up to 50% off the best hotels around the world as well as flights, car rentals, and activities with immediate savings upon activation. As a Last Minute Travel Club member, exclusive discounts on first-class stays are at your typing fingertips – and you don’t have to wait until the last minute! Having done some searching, I think the $10 will not go to waste!

Here is another great one for travel or going out on the town! Check out this Daily Candy deal for 2 pairs of rollable flats from “Flat Out” for $24– they look cute and easy to stow away in your purse or bag!

And of course if you are having fun in the sun, you need some good sun protection. Here is a great deal on all natural sunscreen from Active.Com Schwaggle: $18 for Two Bottles of Natural, Sport-Friendly Sunology Sunscreen
