Club/Forum Etc for Single Grey Nomads Actually on the Road?
(Preview)
Would anyone know of a site/forum/club/group for Grey Nomads - preferably single - actually planning to head off somewhere? Not sure if this is the group for such a thing. It would be fantastic to actually travel in a convoy with like-minded souls, one or several. Cheers Jan
