It’s not just kids that go back to school about this time of year. Seniors too take advantage of all sorts of formal and less formal learning opportunities.

One of the most interesting is Elderhostel. A not-for-profit organization dedicated to combining travel and education, Elderhostel offers programs literally around the world. You could, for example, travel to New York and experience two performances at the Metropolitan Opera or you could explore Australia and New Zealand in a month long adventure.

Unlike more typical tour companies, Elderhostel works hard to provide history and behind the scenes information. Some programs actually conduct research for various environmental organizations while others teach you specific skills like paining or pottery.

Tours with Elderhostel are surprisingly inexpensive and people who go tend to go again and again. Take a look, sign up for their newsletter – you may be pleasantly surprised.
