Learning a healthier lifestyle through educational health consultations, inspiring fitness training, healing spa therapies and healthy nutrition, this life changing trip could well be the long-term answer to those nasty Sunday evening meltdowns.
With the estimation that today’s early 30 year olds won’t be able to retire until they are 73 (source NerdWallet), this around the world trip which tops £156,000pp with business class flights is certainly a big investment in your health and well-being. If that’s blowing the budget, there is even a six-month version of the trip, for those with fewer funds or time to spare. With larger budgets than their younger counterparts, joining the career breakers in the rise of the adult gap year are the equally exhausted career enders. Also known as ‘grey gappers’, this growing phenomenon is fueled by the ‘now or never’ factor with health conscious baby boomers looking to get the most out of life after retirement. Whether in search of an alternative approach to existing health problems, or in need of a healthy lifestyle overhaul after the trials of a divorce or illness, this tailor-made trip is about your personal journey towards a healthier and happier you.
