The Baby Boomer Nomad is Rob. 


My Resume includes various roles such as Paper Boy, Dishwasher, Warehouse Worker, Pizza Delivery Driver, Camera and Audio Retail Sales, and Wholesale Distribution Electronics Marketing Manager. I have also worked as a Bartender, Restaurant Waiter, Night Club DJ, and served 24 years in the Army, retiring as Major. My career further expanded as an IT Company Operations Manager, IT Recruiting/HR Director, Software Implementation Engagement Manager, and VP of Operations for a Global IT Hardware Support Company. Additionally, I served as VP of Alliances and an Equity Partner in an ERP (SAP) Software Company. 


As a Family Man, I am a father to one daughter from my first marriage, and I raised two granddaughters from my second wife's oldest daughter for over 20 years, also caring for her youngest daughter for 10 years. Recently, I have been assisting in raising my great-grandson. 


Despite facing significant health challenges for the past decade, including sleep apnea, high blood pressure, Type 2 Diabetes,  pulmonary embolism, cancer, and a heart attack, I’ve persevered. I believe that I have accomplished a lot: taking care of my family while overcoming numerous health issues. Now, I'm excited to embrace new adventures, such as budget travel for seniors and solo traveling, as I continue my journey as a Boomer Nomad.

My Story

The plan is BOLD to say the least... I’m embarking on a social experiment by solo traveling the world on just $2500 a month!


 I will keep it simple: I will 'Walk the Earth' and share my story, showing people how they can also embrace budget travel for seniors. They will see how I live, what food I eat, and what I experience along the way!

 I will keep it simple: I will 'Walk the Earth' and share my story, showing people how they can also embrace budget travel for seniors. They will see how I live, what food I eat, and what I experience along the way! Followers will track my monthly budget and see my plans to ensure I stay on track. With 100% transparency 


I will share how I am doing mentally and physically. I hope that this journey will inspire others to change their lives and choose to live a better life.

A journey of self-discovery

I will solo travel the world on $2500 per month, which is approximately the amount someone on Social Security receives. This journey will not only challenge norms but also inspire change while showcasing budget travel for seniors. Join me as I explore new horizons, connect with diverse cultures, and create meaningful connections along the way. Experience the world through a different lens and embrace the unknown with open arms as I travel as The Boomer Nomad.
