Looking for fellow traveler

Desperate to go cruising, preferably somewhere hot but solo travelling is so expensive!


So I’m looking for a similar independent female to share cabin costs if poss. Definitely won’t be joined at the hip and if you don’t snore loudly, that’s a plus!

I have a cruise in December. 51 days around south america. No drama. not looking for romance. Just a friend is fine. Leaving from LA to Lauderdale if interested.

Hey, I haven't been ignoring you.. As someone figuring out how this works, I assumed there would be a result to "click here" that would lead me to a page where I could respond personally. It took me a couple of weeks (along with living life and doing other things!) to realize that---uh, no, there's no such thing!

So I find myself two weeks after you responded to ME, finally figuring out, that all I can do is answer in this little box and let the whole world (well, everyone signed up to this site) see our conversation. Hmmm...not exactly what I had in mind.

So...yes, I would be interested in a Zoom call to talk to you, but would prefer first, if you would be willing, to exchange an email or two finding out a little about each other in writing. Zoom involves possibly talking around others., with all that entails, while a little "getting to know you" online would be just between the two of us.

So I opened an encrypted email acct at proton email....I'm not particularly concerned about posting the address here for the world to see, because -- as said, it is encrypted so that no one can read it other than the person it is written to and the person responding to it (perhaps you're already familiar with this type of email acct-- it differs from the usual commercial accts only in that once you write it, no one can read it other than the ones it is addressed to and from-- my address there is: DailyAOM@proton,me, and if you're interested, start up an acct if you would, please -- just go to the proton email site; it's easy, and I'll be checking my acct there daily to see if you've responded.

I've sent you a welcome email there.... If we get along, then we can graduate to Zoom calls; is that acceptable? I'd love to -- truthfully, I had given up on getting to go at all, even tho' it's the dream of a lifetime for me!

Hope to hear from you soon,

Jen at proton email., ..

Got a kind comment asking if I would be interested in a QM transatlantic cruise, and apologies -- still figuring out how the site works -- said "click here to respond," and when I click on the link, it sends me here, not to that comment!

So-- this is in response to that kind invitation, which I do appreciate. The thing is, I'm not interested in just any cruise and frankly, not financially up for it--- this one I mentioned, the Chris Plante Cruise of the British Isles, scheduled for July 2024, is a once-in-a-lifetime thing, an inclusive political cruise hosted by a talk radio host out of Washington, D.C.

I'm interested not only in the "British Isles" aspect of it, but also in the political part, as CP is someone I'm very politically akin to -- this is a small (under 500 people) cruise full of political discussions and activities along with the heritage and cultural excursions, and something I'd love to do, but can only afford if I was to find a like-minded independent female to share cabin costs with.

But thanks so much for thinking of me.

And the offer still holds, if there are other MAGA folks out there who would like to take advantage of a once-in-a-lifetime style cruise (heh, before Western civilization disapears, the way it is looking)...

Definitely not "somewhere hot" --- but looking for someone to share cabin costs for all-inclusive cruise of British Isles summer 2024.....not only credit for spending onboard, and but free excursions-galore -- think King Arthur-Tolkien-Bravehear and Eng, Scot, Irish & Welsh history/culture galore w/endless freebies included!

If only interested in beaches, not good, but AM the same independent, go-my-own-way type....small ship, so filling up now.. Heh, have been gung-ho --posted 3 x's today--will just leave this up for now -- like-minded females reply...

Sounds exactly like what I'm looking for.

I'm going 20 days on the Cunard line from Barcel0na to Singapore in October 2023.
It would be 2000 usd per person.

It stops in Greece, Egypt, Oman and Sri Lanka on the way. Feel free to message me if you'd be interested.

Kind regards, Melissa 🙂

I miss the days of a resort where'd there be a menu of activities and you'd be seating within a group.
Cruises seem to have substituted for this?

Wondering about port of departure and costs.. Open to having a few roommates as long as sensible and practical views are there-relaxed and open..

Hi Barb,
I'm 56 and just booked my first cruise. I'm going to Alaska on the Norwegian Encore on July 6th, 2025. They are offering a 2 for 1 special, no single supplement. I've done some research and NCL is known to cater to single seniors and has meet&greet activities. Good luck in your travels.
