Has your travel style affected your relationships while on vacation? The more I travel, the more I’m learning that you never truly know a person until you leave town with them. That’s why it’s important to have conversations about the kind(s) of experiences your companions plan to have before getting on the plane. This can prevent a lot of disagreements. We all work hard and shouldn’t be caught off guard by another person’s expectations of the trip, or made to feel guilty for ours. I’d like to break down some of the most common travel styles to help you to start a dialogue with your travel buddies and come to a common ground that works.
The Adventurer
This traveler is interested in all adventurous activities from a simple hike in the woods to more extreme sports like BASE jumping and waterfall rappelling. They live by the seat of their pants most likely and probably won’t do well with a vacation itinerary. The term “Y.O.L.O.” comes to mind with these kinds of people. If you’re more laid back or even a little fearful, the adventurous traveler is probably not your speed. They’ll have you trapped in a haunted house screaming for help while they’re having the time of their lives!
