How interested would you be in a blog that focuses entirely on independent travelers in their 40, 50 & 60s? I'm pitching such a blog for an established independent travel website that mostly focuses on youths. I think there's a need for more informa…

ThankX for the invitation in Doris. Selling my 6 acre orchid property here on Queensland's Sunshine Coast and as soon as a deal is set I'm off like a shot to Malaysia/Singapore to gather in more orchids stories. Maybe some of your friends can help with a lead. It's been four years since I've seen Asia and could use a bit of orchid update. Best MaX
