I just did my first Armchair Travel. My residents wanted to "travel" to Italy. We chose to travel to Milan and Lake Como (see video on Youtube) . I set up our activity room as though they were flying on an airplane. Printed off boarding tickets to pass our when they arrived. Offered music and a mocktails (being passed out from a cart like on a plane) before "take off". Read safety rules (Just for fun), had the captain make an announcement (just for fun). Watched the 25 min video, discussed what we learned, read some fun facts and finished with cappuccino and lemon and vanilla Italian waffle cookies. We also dressed for the part and got the kitchen involved to prepare an Italian fest for lunch. They enjoyed the attention to detail. We are now planning our next trip... Hope this helps someone.

I have been in this field for close to 15 years. I came across your website initially because I was searching for a shared, personal forum with other professionals in my field that was not attached to random advertising and monthly fees. After discovering your website which hosted a forum that was exactly what I was looking for, as well as providing a mountain of resources that didn’t require you to follow several external links to get to, and to top it off no monthly recurring fee...Jackpot!
