There are lots of companies that deal with this situation. Try Googling and you will find them. One company that comes to mind is http://www.osolomio.com/. If you like group travel.
The main GraffitiWall has a section called Travel Partners Wanted, for people who want to share travel -- check it out.
Some tour companies will try to find a "partner" for you if you book with them. In 2005, I traveled with Uniworld to China. I said that I would be interested in having a roommate, but since they were unable to find one for me I didn't have to pay the single supplement. Look at different tour companies and see what they offer.
Evelyn, I stumbled on a travel club called Thelma and Louise recently. I haven't joined, but it appears it provides a source for matching up single travelers.
thanks for the help..i already found a gruop being formed for next summer...away to go
hello,i will like to know you better...bcos i like to travel all over the word,[email protected] or [email protected]
the travel partners wanted link is predominately younger folks. Maybe Rick's webmaster could start a link specifically for retired aged folks. And for everyone out there, be careful with this feature. I am sure there are some weirdos out there. The next time I plan to travel alone, I plan to go on a tour for that very reason. Companionship and safety.
Word of caution: nigerian scammers seem to have found this site so be careful. I have notified Rick's staff, and they are checking on it. If you think you have discovered a scammer on this site, please let them know. I would hate for the grafitti wall to be closed down.
Try www.travelchums.com. You can create a preference profile and do searches by just about any combination of demographics.
