Overview
Best of Times is engaging, nostalgic and inquiring, and covers a broad range of issues about active living in later life.
“I see ‘activity’ as encompassing hearts and minds as much as the body,” says editor Alex Staines. “This means I love to write articles about history, people’s lives, Kiwi ingenuity, leisure, the environment and technology, as well as health, nutrition and retirement village issues.”
It’s about enjoying life, sharing stories, and staying young - and maybe a little wild - at heart!
