Treechange and SeachangeTENS of thousands of baby boomers head for the coast or the country each year in search of their very own seachange or treechange. For most it is the lure of being able to trade the stress and pressure of the city and work life for a simpler life.
Each year more than 150,000 people make the "change" in life and thousands more dream about it. For the uninitiated, seachange is making the move to coastal areas, and treechange is moving inland away from metropolitan cities to seek a new life.
For many it is fear of the unknown that stops them from fulfilling their dream of a better life with less stress and the ability to do the things they don't have the time to do in their present lives.
Visitors to the Baby Boomers & Retirees Lifestyle Expo will be able to get answers to all their questions about seachange and treechange moves, downsizing and other lifestyle decisions they might consider for their later years. Seachange Village Arundel
