Lady World Traveler Seeks Like-minded Travel Partner/s 2010-2011
November 2010 - November 2011 - Europe and beyond
Hi there. I'm taking off for a round the world tour leaving from Paris 11/2010. From there I want to see the top 100 wonders of the world including the top 10 scuba diving sites. If you're a diver, too, that's even better.
Backpacking/flying/railing and staying in apartments/houses/ and wherever wonderful I discover. Seeking QUALITY experiences with like-minded fellow travelers.
My child is going away to college in May, and now it's my chance of the lifetime to see all the places I've been yearning to see.
The itinerary is loosely based on Rick Steve's tours mixed with National Geographic's top 100 places to see. Planning it for optimal weather and touring conditions.
My travel budget is $150/day or so and may include renting apartments/ gites / etc. Open to all possibilities. Paying our own way and keeping private rooms.
If you're 35-55 - travel fit, fun-loving, respectful, optimistic, adventurous, and resourceful, let's talk.
I speak fluent French and English, and passable Spanish. I have traveled in France and Latin America and been on 600+ Caribbean dives.
Let's go see the world. :)

Camping Partners-Spring 2010
Hi! I'm a 39 yr. old female seeking ANYONE near my age who would like to go to Europe in Spring 2010 and do a combo biking/hiking/camping tour of select countries - France, Low Countries, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, with an 'end-of-the-tour' rest in Italy. I have plans to stay at campsites, which would be cheaper than hotels and also would bring one closer to a 'European
Experience' with natives, whom I've learned in my research, love to camp! If you'd be seriously interested in this type of tour (2 months max, 45 days min.), please contact me asap so we can get to planning. Ciao!

Casual travelers unite! If you like to travel Europe on the cheap and don't feel the need to hike, bike or get up at the crack of dawn, let's talk. I'm a 30something that has a better chance of hitting the lottery than one of my friends finding a babysitter and traveling with me for a week. It would be nirvana to find a travel partner that is a Christian and a U2 fan. :)
I'm thinking Prague in May '10. What are you thinking?

senor-ish travel partners Aug 2010
For years I've dreamt of returning to Europe. I'll be turning 60 in December. I like to say souixante ans. My travel interest have changed from rushing around from site to site, partying, shopping and buying expensive souvenirs to gardening, history, art,writing enjoying the locals,learning another language,enjoying good food ,good wine,slow hikes,riding around the country-side and relaxing.This kind of trip is nice for slow walkers and physically challenged folks.
I am definitely not interested in whirlwind tours and waking up at 6am to be on a bus by 7am everyday.Hostels are not for me anymore. I need a home base with a shower and I need to know where all the toilets are.
I want to find some like-minded friends to travel to Italy and/or France or to the British Isles in 2010 on a budgeted but comfortable and tasteful tour. This trip would be for those of us who don't have a lot of money.Just regular folks who don't need to be too fancy and thought that travel was just a far-fetched once in a life time thing.
If one started now, by next August,one could save enough for the trip. I've discovered that there is nothing in life which excites me more than travel and I am willing to sacrifice. I think I will have a yard sale next month to get started.
We could rent an apartment or villa for ten days if there are enough of us. We could prepare most of our own meals,have picnics,shop in markets and grocery stores, rent a minivan,take trains and buses ,plan our own itinerary,relax, then go back again next year.
I'd like to hear from anyone who is interested in this kind of travel.

Provence in June 2010 when the lavender is blooming
Mid 50s couple, very seasoned Europe travelers and are making 2010 plans. Have been to the region several times but not in late June when the lavender is blooming. Couples or singles fine.
We prefer apartments to hotels so are considering sharing one to get better value for the money, more space. We will have a car. Would want to agree that we are not tied at the waist and free to go our own way. Want to do the same things, fine. Hey I’m a guy and the last thing I want to do is window shop. You go window shopping with my wife, I don’t, win-win-win, (assuming you like such!)
Drop up a line if you want to pursue.

Travelling couple looking for 2nd couple- 2010
Hello, my girlfriend and I are planning a year long backpacking trip together in 2010 and are looking for another couple to join us. Just trying to save as much money as possible and hopefully have more fun. I'm 24 and she's 23. We are both very easy going and can get along with anybody. We are planning on leaving summer 2010. We want to go all over Europe for 5 or 6 months and then spend the last half of the trip in South East Asia. We are very flexible and are open for going anywhere. We plan on living on a tight budget and staying abroad as long as possible. More than a year if we can afford it. If you and your spouse are interested in tagging along then drop me a line. Preferably couples 20-30 yrs old as we will likely have more in common. I know it's about a year in advance, but that will give us plenty of time to plan together.

I'm an energetic early 50's old hippie Yankee girl, transplanted from MA many moons ago. This is my 8th trip to Amsterdam, & for the 1st time, I'm traveling solo. I usually travel with friends or my hubby, but this trip, nobody has the expendable income. Age is not an issue as long as you're old enough to drink, but young enough to still have fun! My budget is moderate, but rare & well chosen splurges are a definite possibility. I'd love to meet up for a meal, boat ride or tour, or even a city walk. I will be going in mid to late March so that I can finally visit Keukenhof Gardens. I always stay 6 or 7 nights. Please email if interested.

May 2010-Bike touring southern Franch/Italian Riviera to Venice.
Easy going 36 year old strait guy, looking for easy going buddy (m/f) with some cycling experience. Must me in good health and decent fitness level for long cycling trips.
I was born in Europe now living in US of A, planning to go bike touring/camping next year (may 2010) from Marseille to Cinque Terre using scenic and back roads across French and Italian Riviera and then crossing the mountains all the way up to Venice. Bikes and equipment travel with us as luggage from US to Marseilles.
I'm camping using a small individual tent, eating in small, cheap restaurants along the way. One night stops in Toulon, St Tropez, Monaco and other places if camping is allowed. I'm thinking to go easy paddling (not racing), covering 30-50 miles daily for 18-20 days or so, depending on weather and terrain.
Is anyone done it before? Pls share your experience! If everything's going as planned I intend to stop in Monaco and see the Formula Grand Prix race. (if possible). So, as you can see nothing is got to stay as schedule. Bottom line is to see and experience the beauty given to us by mother nature.
Thx
G.V.

Europe 2010
I am planning what I am calling my European Sabbatical for next year, 2010. Plan on being there 6 months if I can swing it, spending several weeks in multiple countries. Start Jan or Feb 2010. Would prefer companion(s) over age 40, either male or female. Just beginning research and planning. Anyone else out there interested in a similar journey?

Ireland 2010
I am planning a trip to Ireland in Sept. 2010 and would like to find a travel buddy. I know this is far off, but it gives time to save and make plans. I plan on staying at hostels or B&Bs. I plan on using Rick's 23 day tour of Ireland as my guide, so we would need to share the cost of a rental car - unless we can figure out a cheaper way :) I am a single, 32y/o white female and prefer to travel with m/f in same age range.
