I luv their 3 questions for ALL traveling. I want #1 ONLY = old and lazy! 🙄

(1) Do you want to RELAX? 🤔

(2) Sightsee? 🤔

(3) Meet NEW people? 🤔

And sure, some folks will want a COMBINATION of all 3. NOT me...

Love to do all of those...and why not travel with friends. Especially if they've never been able to get away.

Traveling with friends almost NEVER works out.

It is very much like going into business with friends.... or loaning money to friends.

In fact, the phenomena of close friendships is disappearing with the advent of more and more technology taking people's attention away from relationships.

This was predicted by several forward looking social scientists.

So you travel & vacation by yourself then?   (they generally do get you for single occupancy on packages).
