A lot of people act as if by 60 life is over. These women are much older and still seeing the world. That's why it's uplifting.

Out of curiosity, how do you define uplifting and what kind of a story would qualify as uplifting?

Longest possible train journey takes 21 days and goes from portugal to singapour... should cover plenty countries to see. You can take ONE plane if necessary from american to european continent and you can cover enought options... but ok do everything by plane then and post it in uplifting news to show everyone how less of a fuck you give

I dont find the story uplifting in anyway, but I couldn't give a twot about 2 people buying fucking plane tickets. Like some people care about carbon footprints far too much.
