Hi everyone, and welcome back to another inspiring interview. This week we are proud to feature Donna Hull, a baby boomer traveler who has so far been unable to satisfy her itchy travel feet. Donna travels far and wide with her husband Alan, and documents their stories on her blog My Itchy Travel Feet. Her stories remind us that it is never to late to discover something new and exciting in a faraway land. We hope you enjoy the interview and feel free to ask more questions in the comments below!

In the west, we’ve gotten used to over-paying for things: expensive housing, rip-off gas prices, beers that cost as much as your pay check, the list goes on.. Thankfully, there are plenty of countries where your money goes much further. They all share common characteristics: cheap accommodation, lots of activities to keep you occupied, and tropical climates that make food bountiful.

Of course, the tropical climate also offers the not-insignificant benefit of gorgeous weather and often pristine beaches on which to while away the hours. And if you do a TEFL course and find a job in one of these babies, you’ll find that life in paradise can actually become a reality.

Welcome to another GO! Overseas featured destination. Last time we took a look at Australia and ways you can teach, study, or volunteer in the land down under. This week we continue our "Travel With a Purpose" series with one of the most popular destinations in the world: Italy!
