This issue of our newsletter brought to you by Thrifty Traveler Premium Hello Reader, 🧭 Where in the World?We’re so busy seeing things here in Valencia, Spain, that we’ve barely had a chance to upload photos! The dust (and ashes) of the monumental Fallas celebration have settled, and we’re lucky enough to stay on in Valencia for another week to report on the more normal, everyday experiences in this city. Those experiences include paella – the real deal cooked over wood fires as we’ve never tasted before. We’ve seen the UNESCO World Heritage Lonja de la Seda (Silk Exchange), a rare civic building in the Gothic style from the 15th Century. We’re about to visit the Lladró factory and hit some balls at the renowned El Saler Golf Club and Parador. We get to relax in style between excursions in one of the most calm, comfortable, and well-appointed hotels in the country, Only YOU Hotel Valencia. We stayed here a couple nights and liked it so much we extended our stay. Traveling to Valencia? We highly recommend you check out these Top Reasons to Visit Valencia. Follow Travel Past 50 on Facebook, Instagram, or YouTube to see our Fallas photos and videos (to be posted over the next couple weeks). 🛫 Get Going: Tours We Recommend For YouThis week is your last chance to sign up for our Travel Past 50 tour to Sweden and Norway.

Hello Reader, Here, this week before Thanksgiving Day, we’re looking ahead. Like much of America, we’re somewhere on the pre-holiday spectrum: traveling, expecting travelers, messaging far-away family, airport runs, road trips, meal planning, grocery runs, housecleaning, and casting a side-eye toward those early holiday sales and glaring Christmas decorations. This week, we're also being bombarded with Black Friday This and Cyber That, so we thought we'd keep this email very brief and let you...
