Traveling Alone Is So Last Year!

When you head off on a trip, it's usually best to go with friends, acquaintances or family. But what if your friends live far away and you don't have a family of your own? After a certain age you also don't want to go to the nudist beach with your parents anymore, but would rather visit your own favorite places and dream destinations.

So why not combine the nice with the even nicer, and find true love under gently swaying palm trees on a beach in Bali instead of on the Chicago lakefront? Naturally, what springs to mind here is probably the best-known version of the "Adam Seeks Eve" concept, which runs on a well-known German TV network and shipped its contestants, completely naked and just as nature made them, off to a deserted island. If you're keen on watching bare bodies bounce around all day, you'll get your money's worth here. For everyone else, the regular singles, there are fortunately regular singles trips too.

Tips for Traveling Alone

If it isn't, you're better off dropping the idea of a joint trip. Shared interests are the basis for many activities at your destination: if you want to go on bike tours, you should have a partner who's up for that, and so on. Sun worshippers should look for a companion who enjoys the same. Money matters should also be settled in advance; separate wallets or splitting everything 50/50 are just two of many options.
