EldersChat is a travel and lifestyle platform inspiring mature women to explore the world with confidence. Here, you’ll find real travel stories, practical advice, and meaningful conversation through shared experiences and storytelling, not live chat rooms. Through personal stories, destination features, and lifestyle reflections, EldersChat celebrates travel, independence, and meaningful connection later in life. Here, “chat” means conversation through storytelling, shared experiences, wisdom, and voices from women who believe adventure has no age limit. My name is Marcelle Roujade, and I’ve worked in the travel industry for years. Airports, conferences, and tight schedules. I was always in motion. On paper, I was “living the dream.” But the truth? I was travelling for work, not for myself. The kind of travel I really wanted, the slow kind, the soulful kind, the off-the-beaten-track kind, never quite fit into that life. I didn’t want five-star perfection. I wanted meaning. I wanted connection. I wanted freedom. So a decade ago, I gave myself permission to travel on my own terms. No more constraints. No more waiting. Just me, the world, and a deep belief that there’s more to life after 40, 50, 60, and beyond.

What does Elderschat Travels offer? Real Stories, Honest Advice, and Unfiltered Inspiration. Real stories from women who’ve dared to take the leap at every stage of life. Travel inspiration that goes beyond the usual, because so do you! Practical advice from someone who’s done it, not just talked about it. Encouragements when the doubts creep in (because they will). This isn’t about selling a fantasy. This is about showing you what’s real, what’s possible when you trust yourself enough to go.
