Wandering Baby Boomers - Reasons Boomers Love To Travel


One of the famous novels that almost all baby boomers familiar with is "On the road". This novel was written by Jack Kerouac. This novel dealt with the explorational and curiositic attitude of young people. This novel was published when the baby boomers were young adults. So literally this novel has become a bible for all baby boomers. It further grew in popularity when the boomers entered college. Thus the logic behind the lives of baby boomers can quite easily be deciphered. Baby boomers are not the people who will remain in the same place for a long time. These people are highly energetic and are always curious. These people are always ready for travel.

Baby boomers (adults) beginning a comfortable travel industry and reaching new peaks is not a new feat. It is neither surprising nor astonishing. Baby boomers retiring early and becoming wanderers is not something which is new. If these people start wandering they can go on non stop. The final statement is that these boomers are people who are highly interested in traveling.

For the baby boomers the spirit o adventure is not something which is triggered, it comes to them instinctively. Traveling has become a common routine for the retired baby boomer. It is not only the curiosity of traveling that makes the baby boomers travel, but it is a due to the urge to know more, to learn more and to experience more. If these boomers keep traveling like this, they will become global citizens of this world. Baby boomers becoming wanderers after the retirement age has become more of a routine practice nowadays .When traveling like this, these boomers meets new people and learns new languages and gets exposed to the outer world.

Adventure is a cup of tea that baby boomers had always held. This can be witnessed by looking into the great kind of literature that has become popular due to these boomers. The Lord of the Rings can be taken as a great method of how the baby boomers see this world like ordinary creatures, hobbits; these people go on road to do certain things to save their own world. It is No wonder that the trilogy has become the anthem of these boomer generations who have always looked at their selves as adventurous people with a specific mission to do something nice for all the people in this world.

Hitting the road with their RV may seem tame to the observers who are watching, it definitely appeals to the sense of life that is not restrained. This helps these boomers to combat their feeling that the whole world is closing on them. There was a popular song in the 60s it was called, "Born to be Wild" it was a really excellent tune. It displayed the self-image of boomers as youth who were only shortly civilized and these people had a part of themselves which will never get tamed. The freedom from work and no responsibilities adds on to the aging baby boomers that have been caught by responsibilities of life, work and family for almost throughout the younger side of their lives.

Nowadays, boomers don't see retirement as the time to get back to the adventurous way of living. Sometimes it is mostly the opposite, boomers look at this as a t chance to live life in the roads in their RVs to get an opportunity to set free the inner wanderer.

So as boomer lovers, let's try not to rein in their free spirits, even those spirits which live in an aging mom and dad or grandma and grandpa. Boomers will be a sure inspiration to the generations to come. So that they will live a planned life with good responsibility and ideas and still retain a small amount of their natural wildness.
