I’m Amy! Welcome to the Traveling Tulls!
This website is one of the best resources for travelers in retirement. With a background in research, and technology, I’ve helped thousands of women over 50 pack more efficiently and travel more sustainably.
Here at the TravelingTulls we focus on being responsible travelers in retirement. We enjoy wildlife travel, authentic cultural experiences, and sprinkle in a bit of luxury travel when it’s really worth it. We’ve learned to balance our love of travel with our commitment to living a green, responsible life.
If you’re ready to explore the world in a sustainable and ethical way, join us here at the TravelingTulls. We hope to inspire you to achieve your bucket list dreams while preserving this beautiful world for our children and grandchildren.
