Thread: Ideal Partner

Make sure you and your partner have similar goals. For example if you plan to go there for business purposes, make sure your partner has a certain interest in that as well.

If your partner is interested in beaches, he won't be as much use. However, if you go with a good friend, and you have different interests in might work out if both of you give each other's interest a chance. For example one day you can go to the beach, and the other go into town and go see which businesses are booming and so on.

Good Advise Gary buat how if we go with parents who donts have similar goals and same interest. Some times its difficult right to spare time to go to whereever they like because maybe our vacation just a few days. So we need to plan properly.

yup cool advice gary i'll like to add that make sure both of you or all of you love each other's company.about going with parents i feel thats a great way depends on how much you are similar to your mom and dad(activities wise),for me we share common interests and it is fun to go out with them.

Before traveling, I will ask my parents first where they want to go. Of course for me, they come first. I will see to it that they will enjoy the travel as much as I do. That is like a tribute to them for being such good parents to me. I will bring them to a place where they haven't been there before.

Travelling as a couple can be a make up or break up moment. Believe it or not many couples break up on holiday because when you are spending 24/7 together you realise if you get along/dont with another person. I always advice my travel mates that I need time alone during a holiday. That way I can chill and relax.

Really? I find it weird but it may be possible. Arguments will come up when you are always talking and in each other's arms for quite some time. I even have an officemate who always talk to her boyfriend on the phone for hours and then I find them quarreling after many minutes of talking.

Sometimes a little alone time does work for relationships. But if you have to take your partner with you then I like Gary's advice. You should consider your partner's needs and wants so that it would be a good trip for the both of you.

Make sure its not just about the looks - but its mutual interests, you like her personality, and make sure it isnt just because of money as well.

Yup not everything is about the money.
Your interests should compliment each other.

I think we are talking about ideal travel partner here. Please read the thread well before posting. What you said is out of the topic.

@ Gary40

Thanks for the tips man!

Thanks Gary40! That is definitely some good sound and useful advice. I say this from experience. About two years ago I went on a trip to Brazil with someone and all they wanted to do was lay on the beach and get drunk, whereas, I was more interested in seeing all the sites, meeting the locals and taking a trip through the Amazon. Have a good day. :-)

Yes you are correct. The wonderful and seductive Brazilian beaches may turn you away from your main interests in Brazil.

I agree. Beaches and night life is a temptation to everyone!
