Single on Holiday: Going on holiday with strangers

Booking a trip with strangers is a gamble on collective chance: a group you didn't choose, a week, everything to reinvent each morning. Some find a freedom in it that friends never allow.

Being single every day: okay, we work, we manage, we take responsibility… And the reward is that a few times a year, we enjoy our freedom for a well-deserved vacation! Being single on vacation gives us complete flexibility in terms of planning, dates, and destination. However, the downside of this wonderful freedom is a little less fun… For some, going on vacation alone can seem like a daunting, anxiety-inducing prospect. Sometimes this prospect seems rather sad or even depressing, to the point where we might consider continuing to work and skipping this period of relaxation and enjoyment…

So, how can we transform this period so that the adventure lives up to our expectations with surprise encounters and unique opportunities?

Here we explore the option of going as a group!
