You will probably remember this moment forever
As a travel specialist & president of Cosmopolitan Travels, I know every travel experience needs to be memorable.

I remember that moment.
Travel has enriched my life on so many levels; I remember parts of my life according to where I have been, and that is something I want for my clients. To feel that your life has been made richer by an unforgettable travel experience.

Here is something for you to think about if you are planning international travel for 2022!
There are 32 weeks until Spring Break in March. The current passport processing time is 24 weeks. That’s only 8 weeks, give or take, for a hiccup. If you plan to travel before the summer of 2022, I strongly recommend that you get your passport applications submitted NOW! Do not wait, do not pass go, because there is NO get out of jail free card on this thing! Point of fact, travel insurance does not cover cancellations due to you not receiving your passport back from the US Department of State. And for goodness sake, DO NOT get a Passport card because it is cheaper. That only works for travel by car, crossing the borders to Mexico and Canada. GET THE BOOK!

It’s that time again, we planned the 2021 trip, the only trip I am hosting personally, with a very funny name. When I first organized this trip in 2017, It started as an idea for my own personal divorce trip, but then a friend said “Don’t use the word DIVORCE, it sounds negative.” Especially because I was inviting singles and couples alike. So I thought: “Ok, no DIVORCE.. let’s make it a Big D.” But apparently, I was the only one who had no clue what else big D meant, but since I already ordered T-shirts, we decided to go with it, and by now we are all used to it…

Most of us who have been in the COVID 19 haze and lockdown, have let our exercises routines either drop completely, or seriously lacking the usual dedication. We have also indulged food and alcohol more than usual, and now that we might be traveling in 2021, we need to get back in shape and fit into our vacation-ware. I personally used to spin, and now with the gyms closed I found it hard to get motivated. I had a long talk with my dear friend and fitness maven Irene Biery, on this subject.
Irene Biery
My first question is how do we develop and keep our routine, and there is no simple answer. Very few of us can keep up with the discipline and dedication it takes without help. A personal trainer is your accountability watchdog, your biggest cheerleader and an expert who can custom design a workout tailored for your needs and make sure to support you when you’re ready to give up. She is suggesting adding the following exercises in the meantime and do them every other day for a quick full body workout. As you get stronger you can add weights to make these exercises more potent and challenging.
Sit-ups are a classic core workout. They are do not only strengthen the abdominal muscles, but also work the chest, hip flexor, lower back and neck. Keep doing those sit-ups!
Push-ups.
An excellent upper body workout. This exercise targets multiple muscles, including chest, back, arms, shoulders, triceps, neck as well as legs and increased core strength. Push-ups! Wow !
Lunges are one of the best leg workout! They target gluteus muscles, quadriceps, hamstrings and calf muscles. But they also strengthen abdominal muscles. Tip: take smaller steps work to work the quads more Bigger steps will give you a better gluteus burn.
A little bit more about Irene, she is 51 and a COVID survivor. She focuses on fitness in 40s 50s and 60s. It took her months of hard work regaining her strength back and getting ever stronger than before COVID. Follow her on Instagram for more tips. You can also email to Irene@fitasticgirl.com to schedule a free 30 minute consultation and discuss your goals.
