replying to @GenXTraveler @GenXTraveler @ankit1989 Yes it was. When I think of Russia I think of cold and snow. So, it was appropriate. #GenXTravel

A4) Fall in New Hampshire is a great mental health break - quiet, peaceful, etc. #GenXTravel Agree--These photos are from my trip there 4 years ago in October.

A5: No, I stay active, but am not sporty or athletic (not even at home). #GenXTravel

A1: I try to eat healthier food when I travel and walk a lot of places. For the longest time, I thought that you're on vacation so every day can be a cheat day. That is so NOT true. Maybe one day can be a cheat day, but definitely not all of them! #genxtravel

replying to @FrankDiCesare @FrankDiCesare That's not really fair. Where did you go in Mexico? It's a big place. I live in one of the safest cities in Mexico. #GenXTravel

A5) No. My running days, unfortunately, are behind me. #GenXTravel

A1. Yes! It is now. I started exercising every day 3 yrs ago so I make it a priority when I travel too. I still do my workouts every morning..no matter where. I even worked out in the @YotelHQ! #GenXTravel

Q6. How do you stay fit when traveling? #GenXTravel

VoyagerVicki

A6: This is a challenge for me. I do a lot of walking, but that's about it. Theoretically I might do some yoga or pilates, but not really. Any suggestions? I'm curious how others stay fit while traveling. #GenXTravel

replying to @llworldtour @llworldtour @YotelHQ Good for you. I used to be that dedicated but not so much recently. Since my hip replacement 3 years ago I have struggled to get back in the swing of it. #GenXTravel

GenXTraveler

A6. I walk a lot when I'm traveling but I don't do much else. However, when I am on cruises I use the gym since it is right there. Gyms aren't something I will go looking for in a city. #GenXTravel

replying to @FrankDiCesare @FrankDiCesare It's soooo expensive to ride the Tube. So, walking is a great choice in London. #GenXTravel

A7: Yes, several countries--I think most were recommended, but required. I don't remember exactly. I have my Yellow Fever vaccine now for future countries that require it. I also got Typhoid, Polio, Hep A&B for a multi-country trip years ago. #GenXTravel

A6: I try to walk a lot when I'm in a walking friendly location, yoga (I can look like an uncoordinated doofus in my hotel room), I also recently got a resisitance band to take with me when I travel #GenXTravel

A7. I believe I have traveled to places that require Hep A and Hep B shots but I can't recall the specifics. Probably Egypt and South America. I'm not 100% sure because I had those done years ago for a job. I only get required vaccines. Cost and safety concerns. #GenXTravel

A7) No, not yet, at least...#GenXTravel

A7: I've taken malaria pills twice for trips--although I was only in affected regions maybe a day or two. Had I known that, I probably wouldn't have bothered. #GenXTravel

replying to @VoyagerVicki @VoyagerVicki @Intrepid_Travel Yeah! IT was a variety each day of distance, etc. and you could always get on the support vehicle if you were tired, etc. It was great. It was 10 yrs ago now! https://t.co/ONMmQp0p03 #GenXTravel
