Company, at home or out
Conversation, tea, cards or music, or simply someone friendly nearby while you are out, or while the relative who usually helps takes a few hours.
Usually 2 to 6 hoursSenior Travel Host
Good company for the people who raised you.
When you cannot be beside a parent or grandparent, a Senior Travel Host spends the hours with them, at their pace.
Book a single visit, or keep the same Local Host week after week.
Company and everyday help. Not medical care.
A Senior Travel Host is not a doctor, nurse or therapist, and never gives injections, wound care, a diagnosis, clinical monitoring or medication decisions.
What a Senior Travel Host can do
A walk and fresh air
A gentle walk in the neighbourhood, a park or the hotel grounds, at their pace. Company on a walk, not physical therapy.
A meal together
Ordering together, simple preparation where it fits, and conversation over breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Errands
Groceries, a little shopping or an approved pharmacy pickup, side by side.
- Never asks for bank PINs or account access
- Never withdraws money or signs financial papers
- Never borrows from, or lends to, the person they visit
Appointments and hospital visits
Going together to an appointment, a clinic or a hospital, handling the logistics, waiting alongside and keeping the family informed.
- Non-medical company only
- No injections, wound care, monitoring or treatment decisions
Weekly visits and a note home
After each visit, a short note: what you did together and when it ended. Warm and simple, never a health record.
Same Local Host whenever freeWhen families ask for one
Travelling with a parent
They would rather rest while you go out for the evening.
Living abroad
Your mother is in Saigon and you are overseas.
An appointment
Your grandmother has one on a weekday and you are at work.
An afternoon off
The relative who usually helps needs a few hours.
