Hello,
Looking for a travel partner for a trip of at least 2 months, up to 3 months possible. Departure from PARIS on January 27th, one-way flight to HANOI, VIETNAM.
Then by train and minibus (I’ve already done the route up to) SAPA (rice terrace ethnic region), then DIEN BIEN PHU, crossing the border to northern LAOS, MUANG KHUA by local boats for about 300 km with stops in MUANG NGOI, NONG KIAW, then continuing on the MEKONG to arrive by boat in LOUANG PRABANG. Stop durations in towns depend on the sights to visit.
“If it’s good, we extend; if we’re done, we move on.”
The rest by bus, train, and boat: VANG VIENG, VIENTIANE, THAKHET, SAVANNAKHET, PAKSE, CHAMPASSAK.
Crossing into Cambodia: KRATIE, PHNOM PENH, KAMPONG KHLEANG (floating and stilt village), SIEM REAP (Angkor).
Crossing into Thailand at POIPET (I’ve already spent a month in Thailand).
BAN PHE by boat to KO SAMET (white sand, cocktails). Return via BANGKOK.
Flight PARIS-HANOI and return BANGKOK-PARIS around 800 €.
This is a flexible outline, but I’ve thoroughly researched this trip—the sights to see, charming little hotels with nice settings when possible, even the bars and restaurants are marked on my phone.
Budget-wise, it’s not as expensive as you might think. I’m not looking for luxury, just authenticity: cheap little hotels, same for food.
I’m 67 years old, have an international driver’s license for cars and motorcycles, and am well-experienced with this kind of road trip.
I’m waiting to book my flight (as soon as possible) in case I get a response to travel together or meet up in Hanoi.
Possible to go as far as VIENTIANE.
My only requirements are: A small backpack, max 5 kg, to move around easily (for moto-taxis, no checked luggage on planes or buses), and absolutely no rolling suitcases (train station sidewalks when looking for a hotel).
Also, enjoy walking (I walk a lot to explore)—it can go up to 10 km spread over the day.
I’m open to 1 or 2 women who want to “feel secure” or try the 5 kg challenge (I’ve had several female travel partners who survived). I also adapt to vegan travelers.
Don’t hesitate to contact me. Bruno.
Hi there, I’m planning to explore Laos or Thailand in January and I’m looking for a travel partner for the whole trip or just part of it.
I’ve started mapping out a route for Laos—I prefer local transport and simple accommodations. If this sounds interesting to you, let me know, but the dates aren’t flexible. See you soon.
Hello,
I’m a French guy visiting Thailand for the first time in November (starting on the 12th), and I’d love to share part of the itinerary with a French woman in her 40s or older. Just to clarify, I can get by in English. Why not combine our strengths and make the most of this trip?
Thanks,
I’ll be in Jomtien, Thailand in early October, and I’m looking for one or more players (preferably French-speaking) for some games of American pool in the afternoons or evenings.
I’m not a pro, but I can hold my own, and I’d love to play a few hours a day or week with other French speakers.
Feel free to reply via private message or on the site.
Hope to see you soon!
Thanks 😎
Hi! I’m Hugo, I’m 20, and I’m a recent graduate with a tourism BTS. I’m heading off alone in November 2026 with my backpack for a road trip across Asia.
I already have my first flight ticket to Bangkok, but nothing else is planned yet.
So I’m signing up on this forum hoping for tips, good deals, and maybe even meet-ups while I’m there!
Hi there,
I’m looking for a female and/or male cycling partner for bike trips in THAILAND and neighboring countries, late 2026, early 2027, or late 2027 (the best seasons for cycling).
Born in 1952, I ride slowly and not too far: 40 to 70 km/day, 2 to 4 hours per day, depending on how I feel, the terrain, the people I meet, photo stops, etc. 5 or 6 days out of 7.
Accommodation in modest guest houses.
Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi,
I’m posting this message not for myself but for my daughter. She doesn’t really have the time to do it and, to be honest, she’s not too hopeful either. If a female traveler is interested, I’ll of course pass along my daughter’s contact details.
The Message:
I’m looking for a female travel companion for a 10-day trip around Southeast Asia in October 2026.
I’ve already been to Cambodia and Myanmar, as well as some Thai islands.
My first idea was to visit northern Thailand (around Chiang Mai), but I’m open to any other plans in Asia.
I’ve traveled a lot with my parents or friends, but this time, no one’s available. I feel comfortable traveling alone, but from experience, I love being able to share those discovery moments with someone else.
I’m a dynamic and sporty young woman, and a firefighter by profession.
Don’t hesitate to get in touch!

Hey everyone!
Last-minute booking :-) I’ll be back in Thailand from May 12 to 26, and my itinerary is a blank page! Since it’s only two weeks, I’ll be bouncing between Bangkok, Hua Hin, Pattaya, and Koh Samet.
My plan is zero stress and 100% discovery: beaches, walks, sightseeing, street food, nights out...
If you’re around and want to share some spontaneous moments, hit me up! The more, the merrier!
See you soon!
Got my flight ticket! Arriving in Bangkok on January 9th. Returning to France on March 9th. I’ll meet up with a travel buddy upon arrival for 2 or 3 weeks. 3 days in Bangkok, then heading south. What’s next for destinations?... If you’re also traveling solo, we can stay in touch and maybe our paths will cross.
Looking forward to hearing from you in a friendly and cheerful spirit!

Hello,
Looking for a female travel companion to go to Thailand at the end of January 2026 for 1 month if possible.
I’m a 66-year-old retiree and I love traveling.
If you don’t have any plans, why not?!!!
Best regards,
Sylvie
Hi, I’m Ruben, I’m 22, live in the south of France, and I’m finishing my studies. I’d like to plan a trip for September-October or October-November. Since this would be my first long-haul experience, I’m a bit hesitant to go alone. So if anyone’s interested in traveling with me—or even sharing several parts of the trip together—I’m open to it. I don’t have any specific expectations. Age and gender don’t matter. I’m pretty mature, open-minded, and can hold a conversation or build a temporary friendship with just about anyone.
For this trip, my main interests will be: cultural visits, sports (personal hobby), nightlife, meeting locals, and fun activities.
Hi,
Everything’s already in the title ;) I’m looking for people who love partying and want to join me there during that time. I already know the place well, so no worries about figuring out what to do or where to go. See you soon!
Olivier
Hi there, I’ll be in Phuket in mid-November for a few days. If you’d like to join for an activity, grab a drink, or enjoy some great Thai food, don’t hesitate! 😛
I’m Stéphane, and due to a last-minute cancellation, I’m looking for one or more travel companions to join me on a trip through several countries (Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Cambodia).
The full trip runs from early October 2025 until our return to France in early January 2026—87 days total, CDG-SGN <==> SGN-CDG.

- Early October: Ho Chi Minh City,
- Around October 20: Hanoi,
- Early November: Vientiane/Luang Prabang,
- November 15: Bangkok,
- Early December: Siem Reap, ...
You can leave whenever works for you based on your availability.
Excluding round-trip flights to/from France (or elsewhere in Asia), the average budget is 25 € per day, covering accommodation and bus transfers.
Looking forward to chatting more, sharing details, meeting up, and traveling together for an amazing adventure!
Hi there, I’ll be in Prachuap Khiri Khan from mid-January to mid-February 2026, and then either Vietnam or Laos—I haven’t decided yet. If anyone’s around the area!
Hey everyone,
I’m currently wandering around Thailand in Ao Nang, Krabi, and I’m here for a while, moving around based on the people I meet.
I love spending time traveling in Southeast Asia, and I’m planning to check out a few destinations: Malaysia, Indonesia...
I’m looking for a travel buddy to share part of the journey—I don’t have any set itineraries.
I’m pretty active, keen to see things, trek, hike, and have adventures without overthinking it.
Northern Laos, Thailand, and Southern Laos.
Arrival via Vientiane and transfer to Luang Prabang on November 2, 2025.
Depending on everyone’s availability, several arrival dates are possible: November 2, 3, or 4, 2025.
Luang Prabang, Pakbeng, Chiang Rai, Chiang Mai, Bangkok, Pakse. Return at your convenience based on your schedule.

Looking forward to discussing this further, meeting you, and traveling together for a wonderful trip.
My name’s Romain, I’m 33 (turning 34 soon), from Toulouse, and I’m looking for someone who’d like to join me for part of my trip to Thailand starting in early June.
I know what people might think about the timing—yes, it’s monsoon season, but that’s exactly why I’m going then: to avoid the huge tourist crowds during peak periods.
This trip comes after a lot of tough things that have happened in my life over the past few months, and this part of the world has always called to me... It’ll be my first time traveling outside Europe, and I’ll admit I’m a little nervous about going alone, but if it’s meant to happen, I’ll let fate take care of the rest haha 😄 I chose this moment in my life to go to Thailand to connect with a different way of living, meet locals, wander around, discover new things, and discover myself in the process. I’m a really cheerful, sincere person who loves human connections and genuine exchanges. I’m also very into spirituality and personal growth.
Through this post, I’d love to find one or more people who’ve already planned to go there so we can meet up and share part of the journey together, or maybe someone who relates to what I’ve shared and wants to go too but not necessarily alone—I’m open to anything 🙂
If you’re interested, feel free to reply here or send me a private message so we can start chatting.
Wishing you all the best, and hope to hear from you soon 😉
Hello,
We’re a couple in our 50s with a 12-year-old son, and we’re looking for 2 or 3 other people (ideally another couple with a child close in age to ours, but that’s not essential) to join us on a lovely excursion to Phang Nga Bay on Tuesday, 11/2/2025. There’s still space available, which would help reduce the cost per person.
Here’s the plan: An authentic and traditional small-group tour (max. 6 people) away from the crowds, on a private longtail boat from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. We’ll explore numerous caves and lagoons, go for swims, visit James Bond Island, a stilt village, and more.
Price: 4000 THB per person.
Note: We’ll be staying in the southwest part of Phuket province, so it’d be best if you’re not too far away to make logistics easier.
Hi there,
Anyone up for a trip to Malaysia or Thailand from January 17 to February 1, 2025? It’ll depend on the flight tickets and how long we want to travel—ideally, two weeks to explore at our own pace.
I’m a Parisian in my 40s, non-smoker, love walking, cultural outings, the beach, and trying local food.
If any fellow traveler’s interested in planning a trip together, let me know!
Looking forward to it, future travel buddy! 😎
Hello,
I’ve been retired since 2018 and travel solo every winter. But after my sons pointed out: “riding alone through Laos on a bike! Safety-wise, there’s room for improvement.” I’m getting older and need to be more careful. That’s the reason for this post. The idea is to look out for each other if needed, while still keeping our independence and privacy. I’ll be in Laos starting December 6th, then probably Thailand in January since I want to do some diving. After that, it’s all improvisation—nothing’s set in stone. If the destination and the concept interest you, well, we can just chat about it.
