I took my 75-year-old grandmother to Italy. We chose the perfect city and travel time for her age and needs.

My grandmother is an avid traveler, but she hadn't been to Sicily until my husband and I took her on a trip.

• My grandmother always dreamed of going to Italy, but losing my grandfather put her plans on hold.
• My husband and I surprised her with a trip to Sicily for her 75th birthday.
• We found Sicily to be an accessible trip for an older relative, and can't wait to go back to Italy.

When she's not busy caring for everyone else, my grandmother loves to travel.
