Recognition for Our Mission

Being recognized by a publication like Forbes is more than just a proud moment—it’s validation of our mission to make immersive, culturally rich travel accessible for older adults seeking authentic experiences.

Founded by Andrew Motiwalla, The Good Life Abroad was created for travelers who want more than a quick trip. Our participants live in hand-selected apartments, enjoy insider access to local events, and build friendships with like-minded travelers.

This coverage not only showcases our programs to a wider audience but also affirms the growing demand for travel that prioritizes depth over speed. We’re excited to continue expanding our locations and creating opportunities for seniors to live—and travel—abroad in a way that feels truly local.
