ABANDON SHIP. Having viewed in detail the cruise it turned out of 29days 17 we're at sea. WOW although I am retired I don't have that sort of time to waste. So all those 35year old Blondes wishing to join me, sorry but I've decided to abandon ship. Thank you for taking the time to consider. Hopefully a new adventure around the corner so keep the suitcase out. Bon Voyages evrryone

Hi, i’m Looking for cruise companion preferably female, must like dancing, for adventurous cruise starting from Gatwick, ship sails from Genoa, 29days add on 2 day safari, ending Durban South Africa. I’m a fun guy and active cycling, artists, sailor. Look I have a wife of 50+ So romance is not included, simply good conversation, dancing and socialising and generally relaxing and having a good time. I live in Spain so used to sun and the odd glass of wine.Lol.

Am I alone in thinking that if I were married to a man who was contemplating going on a cruise with another woman for over a month (presumably sharing a cabin to save on the single supplement?) that I would not be a happy bunny - or am I just old-fashioned!
Response from Beauty made on 1st Aug 2019 17:05:53
Carole....You're not alone, but this is the 21st C etc etc and who knows what or why is attractive...+ nobody knows the circumstances of anyone else's relationship.....You're not 'old fashioned', you may be conventional & traditional, but that's what most societies are founded upon.
Response from RogerT44 made on 1st Aug 2019 17:32:25
Hi guys. Thanks for your concern. I'm 75 Been with my wife 57years. Already I go out alone clubbing and dancing and have a good time.
We have just completed a cruise together and I've pushed her around in wheelchair through all the Baltic Cities cobbled streets and all.
Last year it was china and Singapore.
She is of course welcome to come but the itinery is simply unsuitable. I'm not expecting some frisky 35yr old and there maybe some lonely door looking to share my adventure
Anyway. If no one, responds I can always go solo and hopefully find a travel mate on board.
I hope all those who made a dubious suggestions are enjoying a long lasting relationship as me and my missus..
Life us for living and you only have it once.
Response from Beauty made on 1st Aug 2019 18:36:07
Well said RogerT44
Maybe some of us have issues from the past - not your problem. DIfferent strokes for different folks.... All the best

Hello fellow travellers, does anyone her live on or near the south coast? I'd like to hook up with a fun loving pal to go on short jaunts in UK and Europe mainly. Maybe we go go further but I'm not crazy about long-haul flight to be honest, it does awful things to my skin . We could meet first to see if we click and take it from there. Don't mind what gender you are but definitely not looking for anything romantic , just a bit of company to venture forth and do some nice stuff. Nice talking to y'all
Response from Beauty made on 1st Aug 2019 12:59:02
Hi Mimijan
Not on the south coast, but not too far from Heathrow.....Female, so zero romantic...Always interested in potential fellow travellers... Happy travellin'

I'm 64 and a retired attorney. I've been traveling a lot to Europe, Mexico and around the US. Done several cruises and though I'm quite independent and happy being on my own I have from time to time thought it would be nice to have companionship on my travels. I've got a 14 night transatlantic cruise booked in late October departing from Rome to Fort Lauderdale and thought I might look into finding someone to make the trip with me. My guess is that the odds are fairly slim that I will find someone who is in exactly the right time and place in their life, with whom I am a good match for her and she for me etc etc but I figured "What the heck". While I'm open to a relationship it is not my primary goal. Just would like to travel with someone I find interesting, compatible and, frankly, attractive. If you think you'd have any interest please write back. I'd be glad to tell you more about myself and forward a pic if you'd like. I've tried several times to upload a picture to this site without success.
Response from Mimijan made on 1st Aug 2019 11:58:34
why do they have to be frankly attractive Dave?
Response from PatriciaB96 made on 1st Aug 2019 12:55:56
Good afternoon DaveFromFlorida , a person who put someone else looks above there personality , may get people thinking is a bit of a vain outlook , on the opposite sex .

Response from Pooly made on 8th Jul 2019 16:19:32
I'm wondering if anyone has actually found a t/c on this site, well, have you?
Response from Beauty made on 8th Jul 2019 16:24:51
Hi Pooly
Fraid so, yes. Cruised from Singapore to Singapore in January and booked for a visit to Gibraltar in mid-September....Admittedly, a few false starts, but perseverance etc... All the best
Response from Pooly made on 9th Jul 2019 13:30:30
Thanks for your reply Beauty, Singapore to Singapore? A long way to go for a trip round Marina Bay!
Glad to hear you found a companion.
David
Response from Pooly made on 9th Jul 2019 13:32:32
Unless of course you live in Singapore.......
Response from Beauty made on 9th Jul 2019 14:32:02
Ha ha Pooly.....Pleased that you have a good sense of humour. Indeed, it was a very long way to travel, but well worth it, we visited Thailand & Vietnam as well. All the best

Just catching up with this board, haven't been on for awhile, but I thought the question about does anyone ever meet a travel companion here, was a good one - most don't know what does or doesn't happen. I will add my experience for your edification - yes, I met a very nice travel companion here two years ago and we did a number of trips - Portugal, Chile, NASA space center in Florida and one or two others. She was a experienced and talented traveler, and we had some good laughs. You do have to work at it and you need to be careful to get to know the other person before you go jumping off - but there are some good travellers here.

Hi. I'm David a 53 year old from Glasgow. I'm single and tired of travelling alone. I only travel in the UK as I am terrified of flying! Is there anyone (non smoker) interested in visiting Llandudno in North Wales for a few days later this month? I enjoy walking and listening to 70's and 80's music. Male or female companions with similar interests please feel free to contact me. Thanks
Response from Beauty made on 3rd Jul 2019 18:17:13
Hi David, Great to read your post. Unfortunately, too far away from you to be a travelling companion. North Wales can be beautiful, especially at this time of year. All the best Beauty

Hi
I am a 58yr old fem, who is looking for like minded friends, male or female. I don't really mind just as long as we get on well. I would like to travel, preferably cruising, as lugging baggage from pillar to post is no longer fun.
I am a gemini, so aires, aquarius, libra, sagittarius and other gemini's will suit.
I live in Wiltshire. I have car and can travel to meet up and swap chit chat.
I am South African but love being in the U.K.
I would really like to hear from you.

Has anyone been on Saga holiday to Los Alamos Benidorm ?
Response from Retiredyorkie made on 28th Jun 2019 14:56:29
Hi Christiana - I have looked at this hotel both on the internet and Saga site I normally go to Benidorm either end of November or March time - having looked where it is situated decided it wasn't for me too much in the middle of the Levante area so have decided on the new one in Albir.
