Immersive Connections & Conversations with Susan Black, Founder of Wowzitude

Immersive Connections & Conversations with Susan Black, Founder of Wowzitude

When Susan's mom, like many elders, endured many months of isolation in her assisted living apartment, she had one request for her daughter, "Can you bring the world to me?" As a lifelong traveler, she missed getting out and seeing the world.

Susan's response was, "We should never ever have to stop exploring or revisiting places that we have dreamed about or that we love just because of our current circumstances."

This inspired Susan "to develop Wowzitude: a remote, community-based travel club, live-streaming interactive travel programs and tours, designed to encourage conversations, meet locals around the world, and explore or revisit destinations together."

As a lifelong travel lover, thank you Susan for sharing the world with us. Looking forward to seeing you grow and I'll be there looking for my next trip!

Susan shares about:

  • The creation of live-streamed, 2-way global tours, zoomed into senior communities and older adults' homes.
  • The unique benefits that travel brings.
  • The many destinations, programs and "travel chats" that Wowzitude covers. Susan shares how they are growing.
  • The many ways they provide immersive and dignified travel experiences for older adults.
  • The social benefits Wowzitude offers https://wowzitude.com/social-and-brain-benefits
  • How families and caregivers can connect with their loved ones and have shared meaningful experiences.
