Travelling?

[+ Charlie]

I seem to see far fewer announcements in the "Escort Travels" section these days. Has the economy caused you to travel less frequently to drum up business? Are fewer clients hiring you to travel to them?

I guess it depends on where you are and wher eyou are travelling to. I am located 1/2 hour from philly, 1/2 hour from Atlantic city and 2 hours from D.C.

 

Philly used to be my main market. It has slowed down. However the last really good weekend I had was in D.C. - shall I venture a guess on why? No, you tell me in your responses

 

A.C. also has seemed to remain steady - the sheer number of out of towners commig around every week might be the determinig factor there?

 

So, while I would not hop on a jet - (they have had to raise thier rates considerably due to fuel costs as well) I have found that travelling semi-locally (whatever that means) has been profitable for me.

 

Having said that - I decided to skip my planned trip to miami and albequerque, I just can't see making more one a weekend (or a week) in either place to offset the cost of lodging and flight.

 

I hope this is the max of it and that we can all bouce back soon - otherwise... well, nevermind that

Hey Charlie,

 

In my case I have been having a very very busy travel schedule but since I mostly travel accompanying clients I very seldom post travel ads. I always admire my friends who can plan their own trips but what I really enjoy is creating a deep, lasting bond with one person during a few days.

 

(Either that or I am really lazy to make my own plans.) }(

 

I have two other friends who do traveling with their clients and they have been as busy as before. Let's hope it keeps like this.

 

I wonder if things are different depending on where one is based on. Curious about everyone else.

I thought you changed your name to reflect your new location - or am I having another blond moment :-)

Hey stud...

 

I have been reading and re-reading your post trying to know what you mean... I did change my name in my profiles and such, to take away the Vancouver part which was misleading, and changed it to Bruno. But that in no way reflects my location... This is that I don't think I can change my member name in here without loosing the number of contributions... and I am somewhat attached to that.

 

But just now, reading this I am thinking that maybe I should send an escort verification form to reflect my name change... is that what you meant?

 

A tight hug to you, sexy!

 

(oh, and in my signature "Always hard and warm, Juan" the word Bruno really doesn't rhyme, so I will keep it as is... How lazy! I should find another signature. )

 

So here it goes:

Oy!

 

I just realized that I wrote twice in the same thread that I am lazy...

 

I guess it is out in the open now, guys. x(
