Welcome to AdventuRetired! Today our guest, Elizabeth Golden from Colorado, is a superstar! Why? After 8 spine surgeries this hiker accomplished a list item from her bucket that many can only dream about! She hiked the Camino de Santiago! Elizabeth's retirement adventure just proves to all of us that we can reach for the stars and accomplish a major goal! Elizabeth tells us that her inspiration for the Camino de Santiago was " the ability to walk when there had been many weeks where she couldn't walk a all." Good job Elizabeth! Good job!
