Further Late Life Adventures

What happens when the adventure you've been chasing finally brings you home?

After living abroad, Annemarie and Steve return to New Zealand, thinking it might be time to settle into a quieter life.


It doesn't last.


The lure of Europe's ancient streets, unforgettable characters, remarkable history and long lunches shared over coffee or a glass of wine proves irresistible. Soon they're packing their bags once again, following curiosity wherever it leads—from London's hidden corners to the battlefields of France, beguiling Belgium, the timeless beauty of Italy, and the sun-drenched island of Crete.


On the journey are chance encounters, moving conversations with people whose lives have been shaped by history, plenty of laughter, the occasional travel disaster, and the simple joy of discovering the world one day at a time.


Whether you're planning your own journey, reminiscing about places you've loved, or simply travelling from the comfort of your favourite chair, Further Late Life Adventures invites you to come along for the ride.

But after all these adventures... did Annemarie and Steve finally settle back into life in New Zealand? Or is home simply wherever the next journey begins?
