The Jeannies at NextTribe
March 20, 2025

Jeannie Ralston is having a blast at our beach retreat in Mexico! We had planned to look for another spot for next year, but our travelers this week love it so much they’ve asked us to keep it on the trip roster. So we’ve booked another week in February 2026.

It’s such a joy to travel with friendly, happy women.

This is the trip the Jeannies tend to negotiate over the most—who gets to go, who has to man the fort at home—because we get to play all week. Just look at Jan Kliger riding the waves below! Have you ever seen a 75-year-old having more fun? This is her fourth trip with us to Playa Troncones, and she epitomizes our Age Boldly ethic!

We just love Jan’s adventurous spirit. She’s unstoppable!

Jeannie Edmunds stopped at Bird Bird Biscuit this morning to chat up some new NextTribe members at one of Austin’s “best places for breakfast.”

The Austin group is so lively and full of interesting women. Jeannie just learned that Dawn (in the pink sweatshirt, who traveled with us to Morocco) is a badass car girl. She owns a Lotus and spent last weekend at a Porsche rally!

The little elves in the NextTribe workshop are putting the finishing touches on some amazing trips for next year. Even when the cat’s away, the mice don’t play!

And we want to say welcome to all of our new members and readers, whether you travel with us or not. We appreciate you!

A Tale of Two Travel Types: Which Are You?

Some of us are adventurers, forever heading off to a new destination. Others seek the comfort of a favorite familiar location. Much as we relish our own travel style, there can be a bit of envy for how the other half vacations.

Let’s Celebrate Women of Adventure and Exploration!

In honor of Women's History Month, allow us to honor brave and bold female explorers and excitement-seekers. They can help psych us up for our own travels.

And an article from the second year we took a group to Playa Troncones, in 2019.

Riding Ricardo: “How I Learned I Needed a Man in My Life Again”

“Will I love again? Do I even want to?” Widow Carol Flake Chapman was grappling with those questions when she found some major answers on horseback.

Happy trails!

Upcoming Trip Previews

New Trips: One is almost sold out!

We’ve designed a fascinating, women-focused itinerary for our Japan trip next year, and there are only 3 spots left!

Two fabulous South African women helped us design a great trip in Cape Town and the wine country, plus a short safari add-on.

What’s so great about NYC? Let us show you!

June is one of the best months to visit NYC, and we love to show women a city that few tourists get to see. We will introduce you to secret spots and cool local women—plus we’ll put on our own comedy show with “age appropriate” humor.
