Want to go to America but don’t have anyone to travel with? Looking for a travel buddy, or do you need to fill the last available seat in a car for a planned road trip through the USA? Write your plans in the comments below this article, and maybe you’ll find someone to experience a fantastic American adventure with. Who seeks, finds. 😊

Travel Buddy Finder: Looking for a Partner for a Trip to the USA

The more you share about yourself and your plans, the more likely you are to find a travel companion. Be as specific as possible; messages like “I want to go to the USA next year, who’s joining?” usually don’t lead to meaningful connections. I recommend answering at least a few basic questions.

1. When Do You Want to Travel to the USA?

   At least give a rough idea of when you plan to go to the USA. Is it this July, next August, sometime in winter, or does it not matter for you? Do you have fixed dates, or are you flexible?

2. What Is Your Vision for the Trip?

   Do you prefer bustling big cities, or do you feel more at home in nature? Do you need to stay in a hotel, or do you prefer sleeping bags and campgrounds? East Coast or West Coast? How long do you want to stay?

   Do you want to take a two-week vacation, go on a road trip along Route 66, or spend the whole summer working at a camp? What do you want to see in America?

   Different ideas about traveling can be the biggest obstacle when it comes to traveling with others. The more you describe your plans, the more likely you are to find the right travel buddy.

3. Introduce Yourself Briefly

   How old are you, where are you from, and what do you do for a living? Briefly introduce yourself and explain why you’re drawn to the USA.

   Add a link to your Facebook or other contact. (If you want to delete it from the page later, just ask for removal in a new comment. Just use the same email address so I can identify you.)

4. What’s the Biggest Problem You’ve Faced While Traveling, and How Did You Solve It?

   It’s helpful to mention your travel experiences. What’s the biggest problem you’ve encountered while traveling? Were you robbed, did you lose your documents, did you miss a flight? And how did you solve it?

   (Okay… it’s true, I read all the comments and I’m always interested in others’ travel misadventures because they make the best stories! I was mugged on the streets of Argentina and had my phone stolen, and in China, the police detained me and interrogated me because I was photographing homeless people at the train station. 😁)

5. Who Would You Like to Travel With?

   Man or woman—someone younger or more experienced? What do you expect from your travel companion?
