the way I see it

Last year, I was fortunate to take full advantage of my 6 weeks annual vacation by taking several trips – in May to visit the kids I sponsor in the Dominican Republic; in September to stay at a friend’s place in Fort Myers, in November to travel to Costa Rica & Nicaragua and then over Christmas to visit Jamaica. This year, I’m hoping to once again travel as much as possible which will start with my visit to the Dominican Republic in May. I’m also hoping to go on a road trip somewhere into the States for a couple of weeks. It’s been awhile since I’ve done one of these which I thoroughly enjoy.

The fact that I have 6 weeks annual vacation (having worked for the same company for 32 years) means that I don’t really have to consider retiring when I turn 65 in June and I can also collect my Old Age Security as well as the CPP (Canada Pension Plan). This additional income will allow me to continue doing what I enjoy – travel!

that’s the way I see it
