How to Find Someone to Travel With You

[rocky]

Well I know I posted this awhile back and it was recommended that I post not here but at the other area on discussions on escorts, but I was hoping that all of our friends here on this common thread may lend me a hand. How does one now go about finding a travel companion? I've mentioned that I've traveled with someone for over 15 years; it's comfortable but I don't like to be held to this persons calendar. I want to explore new places, have someone be nice to me, maybe some intimate fun but at my age I'm more in to companionship and having a good time. It's amazing, I've heard of guys finding others to travel by not doing much. I'm in rural upstate NY so that's an issue although I travel a little bit. So, if anyone has any suggestions, it would most certainly be appreciated. Thanks, Rocky

Meet him for fun, a couple of hours, dinner after and see if he has the right chemistry.

 

Also ask him where he has been, any places he'd love to visit, and make sure he's not an into drugs and has a brain, sex is hot but a brain and a good disposition will make the travel experience more enjoyable.

Wow, your interpretation of his thread is very different from mine. I was hoping to find a travel companion, NOT a sex partner. When I said I'd prefer to travel with someone who shares or supports my interest in hiring guys, I did not mean that I wanted to have sex with my travel companion. My apologies to the OP if I left that impression.

Did others interpret this thread as having a focus on sex between travel companions?

 

Sorry, I've read it on the metro and I just assumed you were talking about an escort.

 

The postings of the 2 of you are very clear, I just read it too fast and on this site dedicated to escort and I simply assumed you were on that subject, damn dyslexia!

 

My apologies!

 

I hope he's nice and sex does happen too if yinz want to do it.

Rocky, You have posted on the topic several times before. Therefore, I am suggesting something different. Buy a ticket to one place (such as perhaps Stockholm or Prague) and see how you do on your own. Since you have done a lot of traveling with one escort, you are not as new to travel as you think. Just a suggestion, but hope you will consider it. It's easy to start converstions with people when you are alone, and everyone in Stockholm and most countries in Western Europe speak English!

No problem Marylander... I believe I made the mistake, not you.

SundayZip I would also be interested in vacationing with a like minded poster. There is a big down side though, to planning a vacation and then winding up with someone with whom you are not really compatible, whether that be an escort or a fellow client.

Even people you know do not necessarily make great travel companions, I know of several friendships which hit a rocky road after traveling together for as little as 3 days.

For example, i do not keep a set itinerary when on vacation. i wake when I am rested, eat when I am hungry and even if I have plans, I am open to changing them if something more intriguing comes along. I would hate vacationing with me. I am meeting up with a fellow poster in LA and traveling to Palm Springs for the get together there in a few weeks. If we can make it through two days without major blood shed, only then would I be willing to try a more prolonged trip.

WilliamM has a great point about learning to travel alone. I find that I'm good at it and definitely enjoy it. That said, there are the times when you're in Bucharest and you've had a mind blowing, life altering encounter with the rentboy of your dreams... It's fun to report every juicy detail to your travel buddy the next morning over coffee.

 

I agree that it's better to share a trip with someone else. My point to rocky is that he likely has more travel skills than he knows. The first time I traveled alone, I bought a plane ticket on impulse to Amsterdam (it rained for three day), but by the time I arrived in France I had learned to start conversations with people. That made a huge difference.

My first trip to Europe was with a friend with whom I wasn't extremely close, but close enough. It turned out to be a good combination, as I can read a map, look at two street signs, and know where I am and where to go ... in London, Paris, and Rome.

After a week of "Are you sure?" he finally figured out that, yes indeed, I did know.

 

My favourite two memories were arriving in London (I was on Air India ... very odd ...) and his flight was an hour later. By the time he arrived, I had bought tickets for the Tube and knew exactly where to go. It threw him off, but he got used to it.

 

Anyone need a sherpa?
