Balancing Travel Partner Personalities with Roles
Sometimes when we travel with friends, family, or romantic partners, personality clashes can make things tough. Think about the various personalities within your group. Will you and your travel partner be waking up at 6am to get in the best activities and avoid lines, or will you be sleeping in til 11 to enjoy your time off? There are no rules for travel—as long as everyone agrees on that. Think about the following personality types and leadership styles to make sure there will be a cohesive approach to vacationing together.The Navigator

Meeting Travel Partners Along the Way
Traveling alone can be daunting, but there are plenty of ways to make some friends during your trip. Whether you’re staying in a cheap youth hostel or on a pre-planned trip for retirees, you can truly meet people wherever you go.
From Solo to So-Many-Friends…Oh
There are plenty of reasons to travel alone, and is something we highly recommend! You get to know yourself, have some peace and quiet, and reflect on your ability to be happy all by yourself. It’s also a great way to meet new people. When we have a travel partner, it’s easy to cordon ourselves off rather than meet the new people around us. Getting our of our comfort zone by traveling alone puts you in the perfect spot to make new friends. “But how do I meet new people,” you might be thinking. “It’s 2019!” Trust us, there is one very simple trick to meeting people somewhere new, and it’s called organized activities. You know all those flyers you see all over the place? Pick one of those events, and go! You might feel awkward, but as soon as you tell people the reason you went, they’ll see you as adventurous and interesting.
