Where do I start (again).
I have been thru a heck of lot ,in this 18 months.Life turned up side down. But still here!

Want to travel on holiday, did it a lot , but confidence at a all time low. Need a woman travel partner (seem to get on better, and I,m old school (have manners) even being 56 years old.

I need a travel partner that's::-

1 Honest and caring
2 Not a Barbie doll but looks and acts her age.
3 Is willing to take each day as it comes chill-out by the pool if that's what we want to do.
4Actually go if they say they will and not just like the idea of it.
Everything else can be arranged if you really want to,and money no problem,

Suggest Spain to start then further a field,

Benidorm has the lively bars or the old town where you have the tapas and quieter bars-a diverse mixture
Response from Bigduz made on 22nd Apr 2019 18:19:44
I go to Benidorm every year. It's alright if you like to walk, people watch and enjoy a few beers. There's more to do than that, but it would be better with company.
Response from Christiana made on 23rd Apr 2019 12:28:06
I don't just go to bars etc weve been on our own independent trips

We have used Alfa coach holidays on a few occations a good coach company, the one thing that lets them down is their interchang stations, compared with Sheerings they are rubbish (just the interchang stations).

Living in Canada, this Brit is looking for someone to travel with. It just isn’t the same travelling alone, I miss the laughter and chat about our latest adventure.
I’d be happy to visit England and meet up as I have family living in st. Merry. Life is too short to just think of fun and travel, I just prefer to travel with a buddy. Please ring me in Canada (403) 487-5882. Let’s chat and see what we have in common.
Response from SmilieCR made on 13th Apr 2019 20:16:56
Sorry, I should have written that I am a non-smoker and probably wouldn’t travel well with a smoker. I do enjoy visiting pubs and having a game of darts.

Hi Rustler. Tell me more about yourself. I have family in Cornwall so not a stranger to its charms Desperate to get away in September to just relax for a while.

Hi Westlifer, replied via private chat.
Response from SmilieCR made on 13th Apr 2019 20:12:46
Lovely to meet you and would love to hear more about where you would like to travel to. I’ve always wanted to travel England up to and thru Scotland, include the Shetlands. Might be a nice easy way of getting to know one another and see how compatible as travel buddies.
If you found my post above of interest or if you’d like to know more about where I’d like to travel to, please contact me, my telephone number is in my initial post. Thanks and enjoy.

Planning to look for an apartment on Bonaire for me (and my indoor cat) for 4 months beginning October 2020. Will dive, snorkel, hike, walk, sightsee, birdwatch, donkey watch, turtle watch, relax, kayak, bicycle, read, and do other mild activities and some volunteer activities. Hoping to use bicycle as transportation, so no car planned. It would be nice to share apartment and some activities with another 60+ female non-smoker non-drinker for some or all of the time. Must not let cat outdoors!

Would like to go to BENIDORM but not myself
Response from Westlifer made on 10th Apr 2019 22:41:01
I've often wondered if Benidorm was as ghastly as it has been painted. Maybe I should try the old town, what do you think?

Hi everyone. I'd love to go somewhere in September 2019 and would enjoy some company. Anyone over 60 male or female, but must be young at heart. Non smokers/drinkers preferred. I love sunshine, stunning scenery, anything historical, and not too expensive......cursing those single suppliments already! Lol.

hi, new to this site, looking around, hoping by posting here that i might get notifications of posts
Response from anitpotter made on 9th Apr 2019 16:21:01
Yes I can see your post thanks. Most of Europe in mid summer likely too hot for me unless you are thinking far north. All inclusive holidays not really my choice as I don’t drink. Split, Croatia end of May? I’m there 4 days with no plans as yet
