Hello, I am a young 70 year old female, living in Nova Scotia, Canada, looking for a male travel companion. I love travelling especially to Europe and am interested in visiting Scandinavia and also Iceland.
I am fit and healthy, a non-smoker, a social drinker and interested in classical music, jazz and cultural events.
Last year I visited Sweden and Norway and want to get back.

Sounds like fun, might be good if a few people were interested, were you thinking hotel or villa/apartment?

Hi, Just joined this site so not sure yet how it works, so apologize in advance if something does not work properly. I am 75 years old woman, italian and multilingual. Last few years I have travelled to Tanzania as an independent volunteer and usually have been staying there for the whole 3 months, visa allows one to stay for a maximum of 3 months.
I am thinking to go again to Tanzania for the winter months but if I find some similar minded person to travel with, I am open to other suggestions.
I am no smoker, no drinker (only social drinker) I adapt well to new circumstances/cultures/languages/customs food.
I mostly like outdoors, natural sites but don't like rushing around from place to place. I love the sea!!

Hi My mother in law is looking for a companion for a cruise next year, she has unfortunately become in the last year a wheelchair user, but in the past has been very active and has a keen mind. She would be unable to go on the land trips but she would love a companion who would be willing to push the wheelchair. She is 95 ..can stand a little and of course can dress herself etc. She loves music and travel ...I know it's a big ask but if someone needs the company ???

Are you looking to cover any expenses? I enjoy spending time with the elderly. I'm sure a 95 year old women has amazing stories to tell.

Hello Annette, my name is John and I am keen to go on a cruise in the New Year. I am looking for a companion to go with. I am quite fit and think I could manage your mother-in-law's wheelchair. I have been on many cruises before - with my late wife who was wheelchair bound when we travelled. If you/your mother-in-law are interested - please message me. regards, John.

I am a quiet 70 year old lady picking myself up after being quite ill for two and a half years upwardly mobile but energy sometimes in short supply,

I have traveled the world three times extensively but now trying to get the confidence to do some more travelling,

I live in Scotland and I am considering a cruise in the new year from Southampton back to Southampton, cruised many times before
and really enjoy this as a way of travel.

I would like to meet a lady companion who doesn't mind going at a slower pace to enjoy laughter and nice times

I am a non smoker, and smoking would be out for me and my only other stipulation is our own cabins,
Response from JohnMason made on 2nd Nov 2017 10:18:41
Hello, I have just read your post. I note you are looking for a female companion so you may not be interested in travelling with me but I, too, want to cruise from Southampton returning to Southampton in the New Year. Do message me if the thought of spending time with a 91 year old chap doesn’t fill you with horror!

Probably too late for anyone to join me for a cruise from Miama to LA via the Panama Canal in December but I am looking for someone willing to share a cabin on future cruises or maybe guided tours in the future in order to avoid the single premiums. I'll be looking for something around May/June next year. I'm 65, male, single. I'm in reasonable health but not up to very long walks or mountain climbing!

I'm a 70 year old male who often travels solo. Solo travel is great however there are some destinations/adventures I would prefer to have another male travel companion. Presently I am trying to put together an adventure to the South Island of New Zealand. I would love to have a companion to join me especially one who is willing to drive on the wrong side of the road - I'm from California/USA.

Hello David, thank for the information I have just come back from a Just You holiday, we went to Prague, Vienna and Budapest and the weather was beautiful, really warm and I packed a couple of fleeces! I really don't fancy your suggestions but thank you anyway.

Hello, I'm a new member, and this my first post. I'm seeking a "Cruise Buddy"/Cabin Share, for a New Year cruise in southern Indian ocean. Reason, economic / value for money.
Also I thought it would be respectfully convenient to have a lady companion to accompany to Dinner, Dances, Excursions, etc. Where amicable of course, no strings attached.
My dinner suit, or body, may need slight adjustment prior to holiday, but my politeness and sense of humour shouldn't.
Response from missj made on 17th Oct 2017 11:01:17
sorry cant do the cruise with you as i am booked on one myself for xmas and new year but if you are looking to do one in the future and are looking for a companion i would love to hear from you. Dinner,dancing and excursions sounds good to me.
Response from UncleNick made on 18th Oct 2017 19:21:49

I am looking for a cruise companion to share the cost of the cabin as to go solo its just too expensive. I am a 58 years young non smoker and easy going. No strings attatched maybe meet up in the evening for dinner and possible excursions. I did meet a very nice gentleman on here last year and we had a wonderful 24 day cruise so i know its possible to find a suitable person to share with.
I am only interested in no fly cruising and would love to find someone who would be interested in in a two ship 38 day cruise to the Bahamas,new york and canada leaving in June 2018.
Would be happy to hear from any future cruise mates.
I dont know if i am allowed to leave my e mail address but here goes as its easier for me to reply direct via e mail than on the site.
[email protected].

Really hoping to hear from you cruisers out there.

Think I have given up on the Cambodia and Vietnam trip as no seems to want to go. Could be the cost. And time. However plan But. I know it's not red hot in February only 15/19 degree
But Cyprus 5 star hotel AI for £299 with a third week free on BB. Any dates Jan or Feb with own room. If interested email me on [email protected]. only liked rooms per hotel
But 4/ 5 should not because problem. Every one pays own flight and hotel bill. Stop protected. Twin rooms work out slightly cheaper
