"How I became a professional 50+ solo traveller, fulfilling my life list and inspiring others"

Comp image of Sue on her travels.

"I‘ve always loved exploring the world and had travelled solo extensively in my 20s before I met and married my first husband, Terry. Even once I was attached and holding down a serious job, Terry and I would always fully maximise our 25-day holiday allowance, heading straight into meetings after long-haul flights and making the most of all the long weekends. I’d notched up visits to 40 countries by the time I was 40," explains Sue Ross.

The 55-year-old from Buckinghamshire, England, now has more than 4,400 followers on Instagram @suewherewhywhat, has published hundreds of inspiring blog posts and more than 360 videos on her YouTube channel for women over 40 who would love to travel solo. Here she shares her journey with woman&home.
