The idea of traveling with friends seems very attractive at first glance.

But sometimes such trips are accompanied by quarrels, bad moods and even conflicts.

To avoid such situations and enjoy your vacation, you should follow some rules.

Choose a good travel companion

Spontaneity can be a great trait when planning a trip, but not when it comes to choosing travel companions. It's best to invite friends whose company you've enjoyed over time and in various circumstances.

If you've been through a lot together, you've learned to predict each other's behavior and adapt, which means the journey will be much more enjoyable and calmer.

Discuss the budget

It is no secret that conflicts most often arise because of money. Therefore, it is important to discuss the financial aspect of the trip in advance.

Without exaggeration, your entire vacation depends on this, including the choice of excursions, restaurants, transportation, etc.

Don't spend all your time together

It is necessary to give yourself and others the opportunity to be alone with your thoughts.

Set aside about an hour a day to spend in a cafe or just sitting in the hotel lobby reading a book or checking email. You don’t have to be together every free minute and feel guilty if you want some privacy.

Earlier we talked about how to understand that a couple will not last long.
