Hi,
I’d like to visit South America. I’ve always traveled solo and as a backpacker, but this time, I’d love to join a group or find a travel companion. I’m 63 and in great health. I speak fluent English. I’m open to other travel suggestions too. Thanks

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!

After completing the Camino de Santiago in 2025, I’m planning another "pilgrimage" that will take me from Paris to Mont Saint-Michel through Normandy. Departing from Paris on May 12th, arriving at Mont Saint-Michel on June 5th, with daily stages of 20 to 25 km. I’d love to team up with anyone who might be considering this route—let’s walk together! I’ve had great success with this before on the Camino, where I met a fellow walker just a few weeks prior to setting off!
I’m a 67-year-old retiree with experience in long-distance hiking. The pace is moderate and manageable for any regular hiker.
Feel free to ask any questions if you’re interested—I’m happy to share more details.

Hi! I’m a fit, sporty, dynamic, and enthusiastic woman looking for someone to join me in exploring Georgia, Albania, or Armenia (not all at once 😄). Traveling simply and positively is my style. I’m used to traveling with "strangers," and it’s always gone well, but this time, I don’t have partners for these destinations. Preferably leaving in April, May, or July–September. Thanks!
At 70 years old but in great shape and a seasoned long-term traveler, I’m looking for a travel companion to join me in Armenia in September or October. The dates aren’t set in stone, but I’d like to book my flight ticket soon (I live in Auvergne, so departure from Lyon)... After that, I’ll continue to Turkey (where I go very often), stopping in Georgia (where I’ve been twice in recent years), before heading back to Southeast Asia at the beginning of January, as I do every year since retiring 10 years ago :-)
Just so you know, I’m not looking for luxury in hotels, guest houses, or Airbnbs—I love street food and get around by bus or taxi using apps available in the country I’m visiting!
... looking forward to hearing from you :-))

Hi there!
I’ve got a great opportunity for an organized trip to Egypt (April 29 to May 13) with Tours Chanteclerc ($5,899). Departure is from Montreal.
https://www.tourschanteclerc.com/.../splendeurs-degypte
I’m looking for a travel partner to take advantage of the double occupancy rates (win-win).
Are there any interested folks, or do you know of any resources that could help me reach my goal?
Thanks, and have a great day!

Hello,
East or West, North to South... the world has so much to offer.
I’m 55 and looking for travel companions to share my upcoming summer vacation destination.
I haven’t settled on a country yet—Costa Rica, Japan, China... and many more.
I love culture, cities and their old stones, nature and hiking... I like to stay active during my trips, no room for lazing around (or just a little ;))... I want to see as much as possible.
Calling all fellow travelers with the same interests as me.
See you soon...
Hi,
I’d like to explore southern Albania in May and I’m looking for a travel companion for the period from May 8th to 17th, but I’m flexible on the dates.
If you’re interested, feel free to get in touch!
Hi fellow travelers,I’m looking for a travel companion—it’s always more fun and cheerful with two! I’m planning to head to China, specifically the Hunan, Guizhou, and Guangxi regions, exploring countryside, historic cities, beautiful landscapes, and of course, connecting with locals. I’ve traveled in China before, and the visa is still free this year. I use local transport like buses and trains. I travel light and can adapt easily. I can leave in April or May, depending on your availability and flight prices. There’s no obligation to share a double room or spend every day together—communication and respect for each other’s choices are key. If you’re interested, feel free to DM me to chat about how we’d travel, the itinerary, and our past experiences!

Hi there!
I’m looking for a friendly female travel buddy to fly with me from Nice in February 2026. I’ve been keeping travel journals for 15 years now… and I know Southeast Asia pretty well!
If you love laughing, beaches, markets, sea excursions, or just heading out for a drink and dancing when there’s nothing planned the next morning—if you’re tidy and respectful (we’ll split accommodation costs and some transport, like tuk-tuks), then welcome aboard!
Here’s the plan: We’ll fly from Nice to either CEBU or PUERTO PRINCESA, depending on which ticket is cheapest. Speaking of which, I’m on a tight budget, so I don’t mind a 15-hour layover (for example, often in Singapore—we can even explore the city by taking the MRT!) because long layovers can save me 400 €–500. I’m in no rush—I’d rather save that money for our trip!
We’ll spend three full weeks there.
Just to be clear upfront so there are no surprises or misunderstandings: I’m looking for someone free from around February 20th to March 15th. We’ll leave Nice together. - Valid passport (must be valid for more than six months after our return date). - E-Travel form must be filled out online 72 hours before departure—**mandatory**, or no boarding!
We’ll also book a round-trip domestic flight in advance (cheaper than last-minute).
Our itinerary includes CEBU, BOHOL and the surrounding areas, then a flight to PUERTO PRINCESA, EL NIDO, PORT BARTON, etc.… basically, a dream trip!
Who’s joining me? (Ages 20–70 are fine, as long as you love to laugh and are free for three weeks!) Welcome! Caroline

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 planning a backpacking-style trip to Sri Lanka in March 2026.
To share the emotions and experiences, I’d love the company of a co-traveler (male or female).
I’m in my sixties, fit, and pretty active—I’m used to this kind of travel, especially in Asia.
I’m planning a budget-friendly road trip: simple, clean guesthouses (10–15 € per night), meals at small restaurants or street food stalls, and local transport (buses, trains, tuk-tuks). There’ll be nature excursions, tea plantations, visits to monuments, temples, shows, museums, a safari, beaches… basically a little bit of everything and a general tour of this beautiful country.
So if anyone relates to this and is interested, let’s get in touch and chat! 😉
Hi everyone,
Second trip to India (15 years later 🙂!!) during the last two weeks of March 2026. Arriving in Delhi for a trip that’s not really planned out—Jaipur, Jaisalmer, Agra, maybe more!!... No set duration for stops or a precise order.
If any traveler happens to be around... It’d be great to share a leg of the journey and a travel moment!!
I see some folks had trouble with the e-visa? I haven’t done mine yet—how’s it going???
Thanks, see you soon.
Jérôme
Calling all adventurers!
We’re a group of 3 ready to go, and due to a last-minute cancellation, there’s a 4th spot up for grabs.
Our loop itinerary will take us from the capital to the coast (Sandwich Harbor, Swakopmund, etc.), the Damaraland (Spitzkoppe, Brandberg, Twyfelfontein, etc.), Etosha, the local vineyards, and Waterberg. Expect visits, hikes, and safaris. We’ll camp every other night and travel in my own 4x4.
I live there, by the way, and know the country like the back of my hand. It never gets old!
Departing from Paris on the evening of March 18th, returning to Windhoek on the evening of April 2nd.
Hope to see you soon!

I’m arriving in Chennai on January 16, then heading to Auroville for a week. If you’re in the area, we could meet up, explore together, and share...?
Hi there! This will be my first time traveling to Japan, in January 2027 for 3 weeks. I’m looking for a travel companion to join me. I might also be going for 2 weeks in March-April 2026.
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,
Looking for a female travel companion to go to Thailand at the end of January 2026 for 1 month if possible.

Hi,
Woman, 42, from the Île-de-France region,
I’m looking for at least 2 pleasant travel companions for a roughly 2-week trip to Argentina in May 2026.
Buenos Aires, Salta, another city, and the northern part of Patagonia—somewhere it’s not *too* freezing yet, you know? ;)
Hotels, Airbnbs, or B&Bs. Ideally around 35-40 years old.
Don’t hesitate to message me! ;) See you soon, Kim

HELLO
I'm looking for a partner with a motorcycle (I have my own) to take a trip to Iraq in 2026. We can plan the route and details together—ideally not during the hottest period—and it’d help if you speak English, since I don’t and it’s a real handicap for me when traveling. I’m based in Brittany.

Hi there,
I’m heading to Patagonia from mid-November to mid-January. I’m looking for travel buddies who are used to backpacking in a simple, go-with-the-flow way: long hikes, treks, and of course some sightseeing.
From Buenos Aires down to Ushuaia, then back up to Santiago de Chile.
On a budget-friendly basis with youth hostels, camping, maybe some bivouacking, and occasionally a bit of comfort too.
The cost of living is high, both in Argentina and Chile: you’ll need to plan for a significant budget for two months.
I’m bringing my small tent, sleeping mat, and sleeping bag—all weighing just 2 kg—and a minimalist backpack for more freedom.
My flights depart from Basel; I live in Belfort.
I’m 57, passionate about mountain sports, and I also love cycling around the world.
Looking forward to sharing this trip!
Christine
I'm craving adventure and looking for a travel partner (any gender) for a destination that's as far off the beaten path as possible.
On my radar: China, Costa Rica, Namibia, Bolivia, Polynesia... and more!
Ideally, we'd leave in June or, at the latest, July.
Minimum of 2–3 weeks.
A mix of sightseeing, sports activities, and meeting locals.
Laurent, 55 years old
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 everyone! 😊
From June 30 to July 8, my friend and I are heading out for a 9-day trek around the Écrins National Park (nights in mountain huts/gîtes).
We’re looking for at least 4 motivated people to join the adventure!
👍 Good physical condition is a must: several days of hiking, elevation gain, and self-sufficiency on the agenda.
Friendly vibes, nature, and adventure guaranteed! 🌲🐻
📧 More details via private message (route, organization, gear, etc.).
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.
DM me if you’d like more details. Thanks.

Just arrived in southern Gokarna, India—I know the area well if any forum members are there or about to head that way.
Maybe a meet-up to share tips, swap stories, or just have a good time talking about India? Leaving on 21/2/26.
Namaste 😊🇮🇳🇮🇳🙏
Hey fellow travelers,
I’m planning a little trip to Turkey from December 30th to January 11th, around Antalya and the surrounding areas. Sightseeing, some hiking, etc. Gonna soak up this beautiful region.
I also wanna check out Cappadocia in winter—it must be magical this time of year.
If anyone’s gonna be around, we could share part of the journey together.
See you soon!
Cheers,
Antoine
Hello,
I’m leaving between December 15 and 20, 2025, for about three months, with a first stop in Bali—but as short as possible because it’s way too touristy 😅
I’d like to head to the Moluccas Islands via East Timor. And also see what comes up along the way—Lombok, Gili, Flores… As this little route unfolds, nothing’s set in stone or booked in advance 😊
The advantage of Timor and the Moluccas is that the climate is different from the rest of Indonesia, so less rain.
Nothing’s fixed or booked ahead—just going with the flow, following encounters, everyone’s desires, and enjoying places that aren’t too touristy yet.
Beaches, snorkeling, hiking, and chilling out… Just enjoying life, really 😊
Interested? Get in touch—I’d love to chat about it! 😍
