Traveling alone is not always fun. There are ways to make the whole experience more enjoyable by making friends before you go and along the way. This article contains some of the tactics used by Dan DeLa Cruz to make every solo expedition a fun one. By Daniel DeLa Cruz Traveling alone is not always fun. There are ways to make the whole experience more enjoyable by making friends before you go and along the way. Here are some of the tactics I use to make every solo expedition a fun one. Step 1: Make some female friends online. This is a must do, especially for those shy guys out there. If you don't think you will be able to approach women on the streets or in clubs when you travel, you have to do the dirty work on the Internet before you get there. The good news is that it's easy, especially when you are trying to meet foreign women. So get on the Internet, start chatting with some women, and start building some trust and friendships. After a few weeks of chatting on a regular basis, you'll see that these women will warm up to you greatly. I'll give you one example. I was headed for Barranquilla, Colombia, and on this particular trip, I was going to head down on my own. I started sending out emails and making friends a month before I got to Barranquilla. By the time the final day of travel arrived, I had already made about 15 new female friends in that city. I had all of their email addresses. Out of those 15, I had chatted consistently with about five of them, and I had those five girls' phone numbers. Two of them offered to pick me up at the airport; I opted for the one that I like more. When I got to Barranquilla, I had this beautiful girl waiting to give me a warm welcome! The moral of this story is that you need to get your butt online. Step 2: Make friends on the plane, and in the airport. One of the best places to make friends and meet people, both men and women, is on the plane ride over. Plane rides are long and boring, and it's the perfect place to start up a conversation with a stranger. A simple "where are you headed?", can start up a conversation that could last the entire flight. I have met many male and female friends on the airplane and at airport gates while waiting for my flight. Airports are full of foreigners and it's a great place to meet some foreign women. Step 3: Approach and make friends! If you have not done step 1 and 2, then your last and only choice is step three. Some good people to befriend are taxi drivers, hotel personnel, waitresses, and cashiers. This approach is probably the toughest out of all three, and one of the main reasons is because of the time limitations you will most likely have on your trip. Once you meet a girl in town, it is going to take time to build some trust, and if the girl works or goes to school, you might not have enough time to make something happen. The benefit of meeting women online before you get there is that you will already have a certain amount of trust with the girl when you finally meet in person. Approaching people on the streets is not easy for everyone, but look at it this way: if you are in a foreign land surrounded by attractive foreign women, there is no better motivation to approach. However, here is a tip that will work in just about any location to which you travel. If you see someone interesting, just ask a question about the city. Some questions can be: 1. Do you know a good place to eat? 2. Do you know a good place to get a drink? 3. Can you tell me how to get to so and so? After you ask your question, you can add. "The reason I ask, is because I'm not from here, I'm visiting". Gauge the response. If your new female friend asks you where you're from, then you are in. This single question is an indication that she is interested in knowing more about you. Even if she doesn't come out and ask you right away, do not bail out too quickly. Stay in and see if you can pique her interest. I have found this approach to work wonders in just about any venue while I travel. Remember, you do not have to be alone for the entire trip. Most likely the only place you will be alone is on the ride the airport when you are leaving because after that, it's time to meet the women you met online and make more friends on the plane.
