A lonely man on the move is a normal thing, a woman raises eyebrows. Despite this, more and more women traveling unaccompanied, so I have chosen. But not everyone is able to decide on such a trip. For them interesting and new approach are portals that people associate the common holiday. According to a recent census of 2004, home to more than 5 million single people aged 25-40 years.
And as statistics show, there are more and more. Since 1998, the number of single women increased by 38 percent., 32 men with It is estimated that by 2030 you will have two million "individual". According to the CSO their earnings are two to three times higher than average. More than 31 percent. women have higher education, while married women with higher or secondary education represent 16 percent. What do you know the fourth alone at least one foreign language. It might seem that in this situation to plan your holiday is just a matter of money. Just go to a travel agent, choose a place where you want to go, and ready to pay. For singles, the matter is more complicated. First of all travel agencies are mainly focused on family trips, and probably not have too much to offer for those who want to buy a single trip. Secondly, in this case the price goes from 15 to 30 percent. because the hotel is more expensive ones. And thirdly, it is a significant risk that a single spend holidays in a group of families with children. In a slightly better situation are those who like single, unstructured surfing. Solitude is freedom Tamara, the owner of a small café itself rolled off the Balkans and Asia. Still, he hears the question: Are not you afraid? Do not you feel lonely? And what will happen when something happens to you? Who then will help you? She had such doubts when I first chose the lonely journey. Since the friend was planning a three-week trip to Serbia and Montenegro, a friend gave up two weeks before departure. Found that the poorly assessed their ability and can not afford it on a trip. Tamara had a choice to go alone or not go at all. Decided to go. She said to herself: What is wrong, I will return earlier. Your backpack threw tear gas, just in case. Today is ashamed of this. It was never used and never took him longer to travel. He remembers when Serbia is already getting dark, and she is stuck in a small village, without a pension, she sat in the shop and wondered where to spend the night. A woman approached her and asked where it is and what he was doing in such a place. It turned out that he speaks Russian, because her mother came from Russia. Invited her to his house, entertained. After this situation occurred often. - It's not true that when you go the way alone, I am lonely. Everywhere people live, mostly nice, friendly, willing to talk, and how this should be and to help. I understand that we live in reality, some media - full of violence and suffering. And so the world really is a safe place. I do not want to say that there are no difficult moments. When you drive at night, a taxi driver in Iran is bringing you some sort of dark streets and made a strange proposal, you afraid like hell. Later, it turns out that it is usually only proposals that travelers arriving women get quite often. Refuse nice, but firmly. Before starting your journey alone well prepare for it. Go to the forum, read about customs in your country. It will be easier - can Tamara. During his first journey saw Tamara, above all, that when traveling alone, you go where you want, and pace that suits you, you do not have to go for compromise. If you have such a need, a few days staying at one place. Let us go on, if you find that elsewhere might be more interesting. - I remember a situation when traveling with his two friends. They still drove, every day they were in another place, they wanted to see as much as possible, and I drove behind them. While I was dreaming that somewhere to stay for a few days, sleep, read a book. And although in time feel the atmosphere of the place, look around, talk to locals. How to travel alone, sometimes you meet someone on the route and a few days, a week or two weeks we go along, parting, when we cease to be on the way - says Tamara , a psychotherapist says that lonely journey can be inspiring. It is also a time when we can see how we can and want to be alone. - I have a successful marriage, which leave man to spend it to have time in which they were able to meet alone with each other and their thoughts. Do you choose to travel alone or in company, always be a conscious choice, not necessity. There are people who like themselves, others will not feel bad company. Being single does not mean being a loner, single or spend much time with other people: colleagues, or friends. Before we decide let's see what we will be better. Life without a partner does not imply that we must travel alone. Justin is a graphic designer in a publishing company short-shorn blond, often laughing, a lot of gesticulating. Can boss say when he disagrees with him. From one day to change lives, to leave behind a relationship and tedious work, but the holidays will not go alone. Went only once a week to Paris. Worked in small business graphics, with Tommy after 9 years, were planning a family connection, joint purchase of the apartment. However, it goes without saying that all this long does not make sense, the work does not involve anything other than money, and Tommy is just out of habit. Thought that in the daily running longer wonder what it feels and what she wants. Left the job and a boyfriend, because she felt that everything must start from scratch. - I felt very strong. I thought that I could move mountains. Chose to Paris, but my friends, or rode with the guys, or at other times. I decided to fly alone. When I found myself in an empty hotel room, except for the first time in my life I felt really lonely. Not the case that regretted parting with Tommy, but I did not have anyone complain about poor service at the airport, to say how much I love the color of the city. And drinking wine alone I felt like alcoholics. I guess only then it occurred to me that this will have more and more. I would have expected that someone know this, and the hotel went on a trip alone families with children. Do not tell me to enjoy themselves, but a lot of thought. I realized that I had to learn to live alone - says Justin. Although it was not wasted time, no more in the journey itself has not been chosen. Justin saw how much of her life are needed by other people. Do not hurry to entering into a new relationship, but cares for friends, for which previously did not have time or are not underestimated the importance of friends. This year is going to Venice with a friend. The loneliness of the Internet With the help of singles who do not want to travel alone, go online. Created portals, which people associate the common holidays . Here you can shine with the idea for the summer surfing, but also set expectations for the companion. She advised to use the portal for travelers, clearly define the purpose of research - looking for people to leave, and not the rest of life. Otherwise, we feel disappointed and leave, come back more tired than we were leaving. Someone seems to us a candidate for a partner, go to the seaside, but we do not like. If you do not not only did not find a partner, but wasted the holiday. - Focus on traits and preferences associated with leisure. Should demand the question: Does this person, he likes to rest actively, and prefers to lie on the beach? Do you like the nightlife, or perhaps on holiday prefer to sleep? Do you like to visit, or perhaps on a hammock reading a book? All this is much more important in the journey than the sex and age. |
