This issue of our newsletter brought to you by Thrifty Traveler Premium​

Hello Reader,

Come with us to Scandinavia!

We're announcing our latest Travel Past 50 tour to Scandinavia, September 18-29, 2025. This 12-day tour (with an optional 3-day extension in Copenhagen) offers guests great flexibility while covering Kris and Tom’s favorite places in Sweden and Norway.

Building on our previous experiences in Sweden, we’ll combine city visits starting in Stockholm with spectacular scenery in Jämtland. We’ll explore bits of the historic St. Olav’s Pilgrimage, and dive deep into food and culture – from Sweden’s mountains to the fjords and seaside towns of Trondheim and Bergen, Norway.

Secure your spot now. This is a small-group tour and space is limited to 14 travelers like you.

We’ve partnered with Go Ahead Tours to create this custom Travel Past 50 Tour and streamline the booking process. Check out the full itinerary, all the details, and book your Scandinavian Tour with us HERE.

Hello Reader, Some of the beautiful Alaska weather we saw last week. 🧭 Where in the World? We happen to be back in Minnesota, one of the places in the world not experiencing a heat wave. Just back from cool days in Alaska (some sunny, some damp), we are delighting in these fresh temps in the 70s and giant puffy clouds against bright blue skies.
