Looking for a like-minded travel companion

Hi I am an active young minded 50 year old female who has been travelling alone for 15 years as much as I enjoy my own company some days can be boring and the awwwwv are you on your own, come and sit with us if you like line is a guarantee on every holiday.


I would love to meet a like-minded travel companion who doesn't take life too seriously and wants to let their hair down and live a little or a lot.

Sharon...I hope you don't mind me sending you this message. I to love to travel and in the past have just enjoyed the ananomity of travel by myself, However of late I find having a big room...well wasteful and yes at times I'm a bit lonely. Also you sound far more adventurous than me...I would very much appreciate, to learn from your knowledge and guidance....I enjoy roughing it, at times thou I love to indulge in beautiful food and nice accommodation....I am respectful and easy going, with a caring nature...which can actually be my downfall. I would love to talk further with you,if interested. I love in Victoria.... mainly on the Mornington Peninsula. Thankyou for your time, Leigh C.

Hi I am totally new at this, I have recently just lost my partner, but I would love to find a travel companion who loves cruising as much as I do. I live in Clacton on sea Essex so it would be lovely if anyone lives in any surrounding area so we could meet up, maybe go for a meal or drink to see if we are compatible. I am a very friendly person, I get on with people of all ages, but would love to meet someone who loves enjoying life. I am 75 years young on a good day I feel 25 lol other days well !!! lol thanks for looking. Oh by the way my name is Tracy

I came across your post and I think we might have a lot in common. I’m kind of a loner myself and usually end up traveling alone too. I’ve been on a lot of cruises recently, taking advantage of the awesome post-Covid deals over the last two years. I think I’m up to about 12 or so.

Definitely interested in being your cruise companion in March if you’re still in need of one. I like cruising because of the fact that I finally get to take a break and just do nothing - everything is right there on the ship. I don’t have to plan anything or do anything or drive anywhere, etc. I average about 75 hours a week at my job but about every five or six weeks I get to take off for seven days so that’s the trade-off I guess.

I am the kind of person who’s really up for anything and just loves to laugh. I generally end up traveling alone because I don’t like the expectations that come with bringing a man and I don’t have a whole lot of time with my work schedule for many close friends. I love nothing more than to find another female who just likes to have fun without all the baggage a male counterpart would bring into the picture so if that’s you, then I’m your gal!

Well, let me know how the search for cruise partner is going and if you are still in need of one we can go from there, or if that space is filled but you think you might be searching again in the future, let me know.

Take care and safe travels,

Staycie

Hi Stacycie,
We have jackets. I work long hours as well and find cruising is a great way to disconnect. Anything upcoming. Looking at Feb/mar 2023.

Hello Sharon,

I’m not solo in life, but I am when it comes to cruising. My partner says that it’s just not for him. Because of this, I’m searching for a female traveling companion for future cruises (at least one if not two per year).

However, I live in Houston (Texas) .. And, I think this could be a good thing? If we decided after conversations and video chats that we could be a good fit, this could offer us both the opportunity to visit one another's city/country and travel more easily from multiple ports.

I’ve been on three cruises so far, with Disney and Norwegian. I’m scheduled for my next cruise on February 26th of 2023 .. (https://www.vacationstogo.com/fastdeal.cfm?deal=44819). I ended up booking 3 balcony staterooms for 6 of us girls, and we are excited!

Now I’m looking at a couple more possibilities .. Panama Canal #44829 and
Ireland #13818. I want to see the world!

I prefer to travel during the shoulder seasons for value $ and fewer passengers.

A bit about me (my intro) .. I’m sixty-one, in good to excellent health, adventurous, and it bears repeating .. I want to see the world! A few of my interests are photography, dancing, road trips, animals of all kinds, wine, and yummy foods. I’m an ambivert, and a little bit of a nerd.

Blue Belle,
Hi. I am in my sixties and love to cruise. And like you,, also use Vacations to Go a lot.
My girl friend;' daughter and baby and going to moving into our house for the month of December and therefore I need to get out of here. Although I am a Longhorn, I live in Florida which makes cruising easy for me.
Are you interested in a week's cruise on December 3 ? Trip number 19617. Only 439 for a balcony plus port fees.

Have you ever thought about a transatlantic repositioning cruise ?
Look for to your reply.
Louis

Hello Louis (floridacruiser),

Thank you for responding.

I'm sorry to say that December won't work for me, and I'm strictly searching for a female travel companion.

All the best,
Kathryn

Would like to have a female travel companion to take trips with. Traveling alone sucks and is expensive. My wife passed away recently and I still want to travel. No preconcieved ideas if we are just friends traveling together that is fine if it leads to more than that is ok as well.

Hi Sharona3, I am also an active, young-minded, 50+ year old, looking for a travel companion for future cruise opportunities. I live in California, but I can fly to the east coast fairly easily for Caribbean cruises. I have a trip on Princess, from Sydney to Fiji (14 nights) booked for March 2024, and I hope to find a cabin mate to avoid paying for the solo cabin.

I am looking to take a cruise and would like to have some companionship and do not want to have to pay the single supplement. Going away a alone can be very lonely as well.  My wife recently passed away after a long illness so I am looking to get back into the swing of things. I have no perceived agenda or expectation if all of this leads to more than just a friend and cruise partner great and if not that is fine too. Just a little about me   i like to go to the movies, out to dinner, travel, go to the casino (I love poker)   I am currently retired and also volunteer on my local rescue squad I am an EMT and have been for over 45 years and I teach at the local community college as well.  Lets chat.  My email is david07470 on yahoo and works much better than this so you can email me there.  Hope to hear from you soon.

Hi Sharona3, I'm a 62 year old divorced female, still active, playing table tennis, badminton, bowls and tennis but only for fun, nothing too competative. I've never had the confidence to go on holiday on my own but would be keen to buddy up with someone likeminded. I've just come back from Las Vegas where a friend and I spent a week and I'm keen to start looking forward to another trip, preferably long haul.......Sri Lanka, Maldives or Caribbean are appealing. Do you live in the UK? I live in Lancashire by the way.

Hi Sharona3, I know exactly how you feel, I have been traveling on my own
for the last 10 years since I retired. I have been on 5 overland trips to Africa
on a truck with others, but only got to meet them on arrival at our start point.
I have also been to Cape Town on many occasions and stopped in hostels
where I have shared a dorm room, and am always asked if I would like to
join people going up Table Mountain, something I have done on my own
many times. I know that they mean well, but I like to do my own thing and
not worry if I want to go somewhere others might not want to go to. I know
that being a man I don't get it so much as a woman on her own might. I
hope that you find a travel companion on here, and if I were 20 years
younger I may well have applied for the position haha. Good luck, and
keep traveling, it keeps you young ( at heart at least) all best wishes,
Terry.
