Senior
nomads
Learn
about
a
couple
who
decided
to
make
their
dreams
come
true
by
retiring
and
traveling
around
the
world
using
Airbnb
.
Most
people
have
heard
of
digital
nomads
?
people
who
can
work
from
anywhere
as
long
as
they
have
internet
access
.
But
,
have
you
heard
of
senior
nomads
?
retired
people
who
have
chosen
to
live
out
their
retirement
by
traveling
the
world
and
living
in
Airbnbs
?
That's
exactly
what
Michael
and
Debbie
Campbell
from
Seattle
did
.
The
couple
has
become
Airbnb
celebrities
,
speaking
at
their
corporate
events
and
even
having
their
travel
blogs
published
in
the
New
York
Times
!
So
,
how
did
they
go
from
working
full
time
to
retiring
and
traveling
the
world
?
Debbie
and
Michael
were
58
and
68
,
respectively
,
with
excellent
jobs
,
living
in
Seattle
,
Washington
.
Their
daughter
,
who
lives
in
France
,
came
to
visit
them
and
noticed
a
of
37
countries
that
the
couple
had
on
their
refrigerator
.
She
suggested
they
rent
out
their
house
in
Seattle
and
start
working
on
that
wish
list
using
Airbnb
.
The
couple
had
never
heard
of
the
company
at
the
time
.
At
first
,
they
were
very
by
the
thought
.
They
weren't
internet
users
and
had
reservations
about
people
wanting
to
rent
to
them
since
they
were
an
older
couple
,
so
they
didn't
know
whether
they
would
enjoy
being
nomadic
or
not
.
But
,
they
decided
to
,
figure
out
a
budget
,
and
made
a
list
of
rules
for
their
nomadic
retirement
lifestyle
?
they
would
continue
traveling
as
long
as
they
stuck
to
their
budget
,
were
having
fun
,
were
learning
,
and
were
still
in
love
.
No
need
to
say
they
are
still
going
strong
.
Since
2012
,
the
lovebirds
have
been
to
over
70
countries
and
spent
over
1
,
500
nights
in
Airbnbs
around
the
world
so
far
.
They
document
everything
they
spend
and
do
in
travel
journals
and
send
them
back
home
because
they
get
too
heavy
to
carry
around
from
place
to
place
.
Some
of
the
requirements
they
have
are
a
washing
machine
and
a
big
table
where
they
can
work
on
their
travel
blog
,
upcoming
book
,
and
journals
.
They
have
spent
about
500
nights
in
various
places
,
such
as
with
friends
,
family
,
one
-
night
stays
in
hotels
,
or
overnight
on
a
train
or
bus
.
Their
nightly
budget
is
$90
,
which
doesn't
include
meals
,
entertainment
,
or
trips
.
Sometimes
,
they
stay
in
cheaper
places
or
cities
,
and
sometimes
,
they
on
a
flat
with
a
nice
view
or
in
a
more
expensive
part
of
the
city
.
They
don't
buy
souvenirs
?
Debbie's
philosophy
is
,
"
If
you
can't
drink
it
,
eat
it
,
ride
on
it
,
or
attend
it
,
then
you
can't
buy
it
.
"
They
also
look
for
free
tours
,
concerts
,
and
events
in
the
cities
they
visit
to
stick
to
their
budget
.
Another
thing
that
made
them
feel
more
is
that
they
can
write
to
their
Airbnb
hosts
before
they
arrive
,
so
there
is
always
an
established
relationship
before
their
arrival
.
They
typically
contact
five
places
they
are
considering
in
each
city
,
then
choose
one
based
on
the
reviews
and
the
hosts'
responses
.
They
walk
as
much
as
possible
because
it's
free
,
averaging
at
least
8
,
000
steps
per
day
.
No
doubt
it's
great
for
their
health
.
They
shop
at
local
markets
and
don't
eat
out
much
to
help
on
.
Over
the
course
of
their
stays
,
they
have
had
only
one
very
negative
experience
?
very
impressive
,
considering
how
many
nights
they
have
spent
in
other
people's
homes
.
If
you
would
like
to
learn
more
about
their
adventures
,
you
can
read
their
book
called
,
Your
keys
,
our
home
.
Let's
check
what
you
can
remember
!
