+141 Travelling is something you should do solo, not with your partner or family. amirite?

If you want to travel on your own, OP, you do you. Don't tell everyone else that they need to do it too because it's "unhealthy" to be with your partner and you need to "give them time to miss you." 🙄

The reason why half of these opinions on here are so unpopular is because they think it should be their way or the high way, it blows my mind how so many people can't seem to understand we have different opinions to them

I think it's important to strike a balance. Solo travel can be great, but there's also something special about sharing experiences with loved ones.

I've travelled in my own, with friends, family and my girlfriend (now wife). They all have their pros and cons, but this following take is just silly: > Being with someone so closely 24/7 is a little bit unhealthy. During a trip? No, it's not. Plus, you can also take breaks from each other.

Why couldn't one continue to go on solo trips after having kids?

A kid needs his father. And if father is going to plod off to plovdiv and not take his kid, kid is going to think "Father doesn't want to spend time with me" I also don't know your situation financially but kids ain't cheap. Work takes up time and that week of vacation at the end of the year would be better spent with the family.

Depending on how often you're doing it, your partner is gonna feel like you're just dodging your responsibility as a parent.

Surely open communication and reciprocal time away solves that?

>Being with someone so closely 24/7 is a little bit unhealthy. I fully agree with the overall sentiment of that sentence (judgemental phrasing aside). However, if you have that problem, the <10% of time you spend traveling is not going to fix it. You need time away from each other. Whether that coincides with your travel time, is arbitrary personal choice.

I cant afford to do a lot of traveling so I prefer doing it with the most important people in my life
