Hi there! I love discovering new cities, nature, culture, hiking, and little getaways without breaking the bank. I’m looking for friendly, motivated people to share trips or weekends with, whether in Europe or anywhere else. I’m open to ideas and like to chat a bit before diving into a plan.
If you have a destination in mind, a travel project, or just don’t want to go alone, feel free to reply. I’d love to make some great connections and share some amazing moments!
I’m thinking of chasing some sunshine in Sicily in mid-November (from the 7th to the 15th), mixing visits, great hikes, discoveries, gastronomy, and more!
I’d like to head to Palermo, Catania, Mount Etna, Syracuse, and so on.
I imagine the island will be really peaceful at this time of year.
I’m 45, very adaptable, and curious—just looking to enjoy the experience.
If any kind souls are interested in joining, don’t hesitate to reach out!
Hey there, beautiful and diverse travel community,
With just one day left (if that!) before I arrive in Florence for a quick getaway, I’m throwing this message into the (Mediterranean) sea in the hope of walking a few steps (wearing out my shoes?) alongside a fellow traveler eager to soak up the scents of Florence—a still-vibrant relic of the Renaissance era. It’d be a sensory awakening without which we’d miss the very essence of discovering lands we too rarely consider.
Open-mindedness, tolerance, a touch of madness (big or small), and Difference are all welcome—even actively sought after!
To keep it simple and less psychedelic, here are the key points of my autumn trip to Tuscany:
- Arriving in Florence on the morning of Friday, October 9th
- Leaving on Sunday evening, October 11th, to head back to my native Bouches-du-Rhône.
That leaves just under three full days to soak up the intensity of Florence and the historical heritage of this famously romantic city.
- Since I booked this trip last-minute, I’ll be staying in a youth hostel for both nights.
- My sightseeing plans are flexible but will definitely include museums, gardens, and squares/fountains. I fell in love with the Villa Medici in Rome during a previous trip in 2025, so I’d love to continue in that vein.
I didn’t mention it earlier, but I’m traveling solo. I’m 38 years old, but with fewer stardust particles than light-years of flight hours under my belt.
I speak Shakespeare’s language moderately well (but compared to my Spanish, it could be worse!) and can handle Cervantes’ language well enough that I’m not terrified of tackling Italy with nothing but Don Quixote’s idioms as my linguistic weapons! Luckily, with my basic grasp of Molière’s language, I might just avoid the Devil and dream of Olympus and the Colosseum (or Olympique de Marseille and Michael Olisé ⚽).
To anyone interested in making this early autumn anything but dull: let’s connect!
If I come off as too much, I’ll dial it back—no need to play the tough guy or pull a Sylvester Stallone act if we cross paths. Otherwise, I might end up annoying you to the point of cracking (like a cricket?) or wearing you down (like the cicada—"igual"?), and I’d really rather not end up... alone (thankfully, I don’t have a clone). ;-)
Ciaooo bello/a(s)
Reachable via private message or phone during the day to gauge compatibility.
Florence: "I think, therefore I (follow) you." Italy, you haunt me, so I’m diving in!
LaurENT, take me as I am or leave me
Hi there, I’ll be in Trani, Puglia from October 3rd to 5th. If you’re in the area, we could meet up to explore the town and its surroundings (Barletta, Molfetta). If you’re into photography, the cathedrals overlooking the harbors are a must at sunset. See you soon!
I'm looking for a co-driver for a road trip from PARIS to the NORTH CAPE.
My co-driver had an issue and can't come with me.
The trip lasts 1 month and covers about 12,000 km.
We'll cross 6 countries:
Germany, Belgium, Norway, Sweden, Finland. My vehicle is a RENAULT KANGOO.
My name is Marie, I’m 74 years old, and I live near Nice. I’ve got a pretty cheerful outlook—I love life! I’ve visited a few far-off countries, but these days I’d rather stay in Europe. I’m planning to visit Madrid from September 29th to October 14th and would love to share this trip with a woman around my age.
See you soon
Looking for a travel partner to explore the Los Monegros desert and/or the Gorafe desert in late September or later (October, November...). We can go either adventurous or more "chill" depending on our vibes and the weather... the plan is to build it together!
I’m Constance, a 21-year-old student about to start a gap year.
I’m looking for young people interested in joining me for part of the trip, especially in the Lofoten Islands in Norway. I’ll be there from late September to early October. Ideally, I’d like to stay at a campsite and/or the youth hostel near Leknes to keep costs down and go hiking during the day.
If you know of any other blogs or sites (no dating sites, please!) for meeting travelers, I’d love the info! I’m used to meeting people in hostels, but there aren’t many in Norway—and even fewer outside the peak season...
I'm looking for travel companion(s) to hike the Via Alpina between Schwaz and Garmisch from September 11th to 20th (deadline dates).
If you're interested, please get in touch.
Here comes the time for well-deserved holidays. Breathing in the fresh air, swimming, hiking... and enjoying an apéro 😎
I’m looking for travel buddies to co-create a getaway around Lake Annecy.
The idea is to explore with day hikes (no pressure, no performance vibes) and discover stunning views, local history...
Try canoeing, mountain biking; check out street art performances, music festivals, art exhibitions—anything that makes for a good time.
I’m also open to other suggestions: the Pyrenees, Crete, Sardinia, Lanzarote, or anywhere else here or there 🙂
Holidays in a zen, laid-back spirit—no stress, no grumpiness, no ambiguity.
Energy. Culture. Sharing. Respect. Curiosity to discover the world. Chill vibes.
If you’ve got ideas for trips mixing cultural walks, heritage, music, arts, hiking, etc. (in France or abroad), hit me up to chat.
Dates, locations, activities... we’ll figure it out together.
We can discuss via messaging and/or over coffee/ice cream in Paris, Marne-la-Vallée, or Meaux.
Marc,
(already 54 years old! *sigh*. From Seine-et-Marne)
Thirty-seven years ago, I crossed Lapland on skis in winter...
Four years later, I returned by bike to the Lofoten Islands.
Now, I’d like to go back to this stunning country by sea kayak—a sport I’ve been practicing for the past 10 years. If it’s possible to meet up with one or more people for this little trip this year, it’s pretty quick to organize. Otherwise, in 2026, I’d love to kayak around Norway as well. If you’d like to join me for part of the route, that’d be awesome. Some sections require solid kayaking skills and excellent physical condition.
I’m 58 and retired this year—in September—due to disability.
Looking forward to your questions and/or interest in joining!
Improvisation is often part of the plan!!
Hi there and happy New Year! I’d love to explore Greece or Austria in August 2026 for ten days.
If anyone’s interested, feel free to get in touch.
Thanks
Looking for a travel partner to visit the Azores for 2 to 3 weeks starting around September 14th. Simple hotels or even better, staying with locals, and a rental car to get around freely. Sharing costs, of course. A few easy hikes. Itinerary to be decided together—plenty of room for spontaneity. Good vibes guaranteed!
Hello,
I’m a 76-year-old "senior" who’s still active and full of energy.
I ski, swim, hike, and keep traveling a lot, including to the other side of the world. My most recent trip: The Philippines (winter 2026).
I’d love to gather a small group of friendly seniors to first plan some short trips in France together. If everything goes well, we could venture farther and for longer.
What matters to me in a foreign country: a change of scenery, trying to understand the locals and their way of life, architectural heritage (cities in particular), and of course the beauty of natural sites. I’m not really into "road trips."
I live in Paris and am available the second half of August and the first week of September (2026). Nothing’s set yet for 2027.
Hope to meet you soon!
Granviajera.
Planning a bike road trip from Scandinavia, preparing a coastal voyage along Portugal’s shores to Santiago de Compostela, or taking one of the many routes leading to Compostela...
That’s right—did you know you don’t *have* to walk to experience the adventure of the Camino?
The spirit of travel stays open: hiking, biking, sailing (on a sailboat I can make available for the project), slow wandering, or a more ambitious long-term journey. What matters most is sharing, discovery, and the desire to build a great adventure together.
I’ve already been lucky enough to hike with friends—men and women—I met on this forum, especially in Mercantour Park. Those encounters led to amazing memories and real travel friendships.
If the idea of brainstorming a project, swapping route ideas, or preparing a shared adventure appeals to you, don’t hesitate to reach out.
Ready to start planning your next trip... and maybe even a long-term adventure!
Avid bike-travel enthusiast looking for a senior teammate
from ARLON (Belgium) to TRONDHEIM.
Nights in campsites, bivouacs....
Departure late June - early July.
I suggest a one-week ride from Paris to Arlon to get to know each other and plan the route, duration, etc.
No athletic feat (50–70 km/day, or 4–6 hours/day), just riding at the pace of our encounters and desires.
Interested in this project? Don’t hesitate! Contact me!
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Marie
I’m a 70-year-old retiree looking for two or three travel companions to visit Sicily, which I haven’t been to, in May or June. I’m also planning to visit Vietnam in September.
I love exploring, learning, and meeting new people, and I’m adaptable, but it’s not easy to find people with the same interests. Team spirit is important to me. I travel on a mid-range budget. Looking forward to your comments.
You can reach me at: maryse.21 @orange.fr
Best regards,
Hi there,
A little week or rather ten days—second week of June—in Sardinia sound good to you? Let me know if you're interested. Departing from Sète with Corsica Ferry and returning the same way.
We’ll be moving around, spending a max of 2 days in any one town. If you love walking, perfect.
See you soon!
Thanks
I’m looking for a travel companion (or companions), preferably someone living in northern France or Belgium, for these two trips. Departure from Charleroi.
Two nature enthusiasts in their sixties are planning a naturalist stay in Asturias: hikes, wildlife observation (Cantabrian brown bear), local architecture, and a return trip through the plains of Villafafila (lagoons and birds). We have observation equipment and knowledge of the area. Accommodation will be in a rural hotel. Departure planned for May 4th from southern France, returning on the 13th by comfortable car that can carry 1 or 2 additional companions.
Private message conversation. With my thanks in advance.
Looking for a long-term travel companion. Preferably within a 25 km radius of Castres (Tarn) or Niort (Deux-Sèvres). I’m planning to move to the Niort area. However, I’ll consider other “applications.”
Departure on June 1, 2026. Around 14 days. My van easily carries 2 bikes and our "travel gear." In Lörrach, we’ll park it in a safe spot.
My motto: a well-planned trip is a successful trip.
Jean-Luc, 67 years old, 1.70 m tall.
I quote (description from an In.ternet site): "You’ll find idyllic landscapes worthy of the most beautiful postcards: isolated homes nestled with their large roofs on the slopes of meadows, peaceful lakes, sleepy peat bogs, and gorges that seem straight out of romantic tales."
Foxes, wild boars, lynxes, roe deer, stags, wild cats, and red squirrels can be encountered there. The advantage of traveling by bike? More chances to get closer to them, thanks to our silent mode of transport... Harder to spot are the salamander, a variety of aquatic turtle, the European pond turtle. As for the list of birds, it’s too long!
I choose not to specify an age range. The “I feel good with you” doesn’t obey any age bracket... That’s the magic of the chemistry that arises (or not) between two people. Still, physical attraction is a must!
One obvious condition: she should like the German people. Ha! Ha! If she speaks German at a good level, she’ll enjoy our trip even more. Uh... me? 20 or 25 common words and phrases. Especially polite expressions! For communication, I use French and English (widely spoken in this country).
I won’t promise “spectacular-fun-surprising” moments every 10 minutes. For that, you’d have to go to Disneyland in the Paris region. Instead, I promise a well-established itinerary, safe and secure, with good accommodations every evening. After about 4 hours of work, I’ve listed 2 or 3 different addresses we’ll head to via my GPS—if the first is full, it’s next one. 😉
I hesitate to mention the positive elevation gain. That’s the charm of this region: a succession of climbs and descents with stunning panoramas. Maximum altitude: 1380 m.
An e-bike isn’t mandatory. Explanation via private message. If you only have a hybrid bike, I can carry most of your luggage. I think that’s called “kindness.”
Lunch: “picnic.” In such a setting, it’s a must. A bit for restaurant savings, I must admit. Dinner at a restaurant.
A potential extension that might appeal to you: from Karlsruhe, take the train to Cologne (Köln), and we’ll follow a bike path along the Rhine River from Cologne to Constance, with its medieval alleys and charming lake. Details of the cities (what to see and do) face-to-face.
I’m 62 years old, live in the Eure region, and my main goal is to meet a travel companion who lives in my area or nearby so we can get to know each other before planning any trips.
I’m energetic, easygoing, curious, and love discovering new places, going for walks, and having simple conversations.
The idea is to meet someone I click with, share travel ideas, and then build a project together in a relaxed way.
The Cinque Terre in Italy in early October is one idea I like, but it’s not set in stone—I’m open to other destinations or suggestions based on our shared interests.
Ideally, I’d like to find someone within a reasonable distance so we can meet easily and, when the time comes, travel together from Paris.
A first exchange via messages, and possibly a meet-up, will help us see if our expectations align.
If this approach resonates with you, feel free to reach out via private message.
Looking forward to chatting!
Looking to (re)discover the Lombard capital! A retired teacher in my sixties, I’m searching for a serious and motivated travel companion interested in Italian art and culture for a short stay in Milan at the end of May: visiting monuments and museums, friendly chats, and sharing expenses.
I’ll be spending a few days in Dublin in early May to explore the city, its heritage, lively streets, parks, and legendary pubs. I’m looking for a friendly, easygoing travel buddy with no drama to join me for this trip, swap impressions, and split accommodation costs.
I'm looking for a fellow biker to join me for part of a motorcycle road trip from the Jura to the Basque Country, then northern Spain, down to southern Portugal, and back through central Spain. I want to avoid big cities as much as possible and stick to small roads.
I'm retired, so I've got all the time in the world—the length of the trip isn't set and doesn't matter.
Ideally, it’d be another retiree like me so we can take it easy—no rush.
Planned for the second half of April and May 2026.
Hope to see you soon!
Hello everyone,
Foreword: I have the moral elegance to keep disparaging comments to private messages. I expect the same in return! I won’t engage with "camel" or "motorcycle" avatars.
Andalusia in all its glory—that’s what I’m offering to a companion who’d love to share every morning of the days to come with me... From Cartagena to Lagos (Portugal), roughly speaking, if I had to sum up my desires. More precisely, 5 to 7 days in each of these towns: Cartagena – Carchuna – Córdoba – Seville – Huelva – Lagos. Having been there twice and visited part of the region, I already have a good idea of what’s interesting or spectacular.
Knowing about the Moors’ historical presence isn’t essential, but it helps understand certain architectural features.
When? Departure between February 20th and 25th, 2026. Why this time? We’ll escape the gloom, rain, and chill that will have settled over France (I’m speaking for my region). Plus, no matter where you go, there’ll be very few tourists at this time, so queues are much shorter, and accommodation rates are at their "low season" prices! (We also gain about an hour of daylight at this latitude.) I’ve already done some research (tedious but necessary...) on 5 towns (Cartagena – Carchuna – Córdoba – Seville – Huelva) plus Lagos (Portugal) regarding accommodation—open to discussion to agree on which to choose.
Of course, I know what to see and do in each area. Up for debate...
Budget? I’d rather discuss that in person. For my part, I’m financially comfortable.
Temperatures: around 16°C during the day in Cartagena, about 18°C in Seville, and around 18°C in Huelva (maybe 1 or 2°C warmer), with very little rain!
Vehicle? A reliable, well-maintained Citroën van. It can carry 2 bikes so we can explore some stunning regional natural parks. Plus, we’ll visit some massive cities—I’m especially thinking of Seville! The driver? Very cautious.
My advantage? I speak the language well. It’s pretty much a must, otherwise, you’re guaranteed to feel down after 2 days (laugh).
Lunch: picnics more for the joy of being outdoors than to save money. Dinner at local restaurants or fondas.
Preference for a companion living within a 2-hour drive of Castres (81), to make meet-ups easier as we "get to know each other" and finalize plans. Exception: if you live within 25 km of La Roche-sur-Yon—I’m considering moving there.
Hi there,
I’m looking for someone to travel with me to Venice from February 6th to 13th, 2026—we’d share a hotel room with twin beds, of course.
I’ll be flying from Marseille with Ryanair.
hi everyone, I’m planning a trip to Portugal or even another destination—I’m open to other suggestions.
I’m flexible for the whole month of September, for a duration of 4 to 7 days. I’ve done my last three trips with travel companions, and it went really well, so that’s why I’m looking to do it again.
If you’re interested, feel free to contact me to chat and organize something fun.
