Omg i can relate to this hahaha I traveled with my bestfriend to different places here in the Philippines. We are super different. he is more of relaxing and going lazy. I am a traveller who respects time that if the tour will start 9 am, we should be there at least 8: 50 am; while him he wants to be late because he likes to laze around his bed or in the couch. We almost lost our flight from Boracay going back to Manila because he is so lazy to go up from the hotel's couch and smoke several cigarettes and we even fought in the airport because im always reprimanding him to hurry up coz were late to the point that he was hold back in the security because he forgot to remove his lighter in his pockets when passing to the sensor. He eats 5x or 6x a day and spends tons of money to good restaurants or expensive snacks; i dont mind eating to good and expensive restaurants, but at least i wont spend too much money for food since i dont eat a lot. He likes to check in for boutique hotels for comfort and its interior designs, while me i like to stay in basic and clean ones for budget and value reasons. I spend much on different tours and island hopping and often gives tip because i want to help these people in the provinces since they are very poor, while for him he doesnt mind these people's lives. After these, i started to travel alone. now he keeps on bugging me to travel to Taiwan (because of their world-renowned food. but i rejected it and told him i would travel to Taiwan solo.

You are right here it was an experience and we know for the feature to not go in such a group. We still had plenty of fun and great time We started off in Bangkok for 2 nights than quick one night stop in Ayutthaya than transiting through Bangkok to Petchaburi also for 1 night. The next day Hua Hin which we thought is just so touristy we decided to leave the next day and catch the overnight ferry to Koh Tao from Chunpon. Than we stayed for 4 nights on this island where I supposed to do my Open Water course but inended up ill so I had to give it up. Next was Koh Phangan for 2 night, Koh Phi Phi which is beautiful but my fellow companions didn't like it so much so we took a boat after one night to Koh Lanta which is amazing, not as touristy and more natural instead made for touristy to look pretty and shiny. We stayed on Koh Lanta for 3 nights then 2 night in Railay as we were making our way toward the Krabi airport from where we flew back to Bangkok for another 2 night. We had a tiny bonus. We soup posed to have 11 hr long layover in Guangzhou in China and we thought it's gonna be a long night but our airlines sorted temporary permits to leave the airport and a hotel for few hours for us so we are joking that we kind of been in China too haha are you planning any travels soon?

I traveled with 5 of my friends back in 2016, and I've faced some really serious problems on the road. One of the guys I was traveling with had serious drinking issues which we weren't aware of, and hence, as you can imagine, tons of money was spent on booze and not enough for a decent meal. I spent the last day on the road with just 20 rupees in my pocket and had to skip both lunch and dinner, surviving on a pack of doughnuts instead. Another one of the guys got into heated arguments (read, almost fistfights) with locals and hoteliers alike, and that cost us a lot of time and money and had us panicking whether or not we'd be thrown out of the hotel. A couple of us did manage to placate the manager though, who warned us to not let the troublemaker take decisions henceforth. So, in 2017, I went traveling with only one other friend, and we traveled on a budget, while still having decent meals and enjoying nice hotels, and experiencing everything the place had to offer.

Hey Vagabrothers Yes I have a story Last summer I traveled with my mother and little sister. The trip on itself was amazing but the flights were torcher. Especially on the last flight home where my family didn't want to carry any of the heavy bags so they had me carry a giant backpack, a roller carry-on and a duffel bag. Sound horrible right? While I was in line to board they decided to leave me to go to the bathroom and since I had NO help with the luggage when I tried to move in line I fell flat on the floor and the luggage fell on me and i twisted my ankle Lesson: Never let your family bring more than a carry-on Now we laugh about it but believe me we weren't laughing at the moment.

lol the best experience I had was when my best friend and I had no other option to travel around Koh Samui with our last money and dare to take the motorbike which we both didn't know how to ride, it all went smoothly until we reached our destination, but the journey back to our hostel was tiring and panicking at night with all the traffic, my best friend panic at the back seat and so did I, in the end we reached the area of our hostel in the wrong direction so ended walking to our hostel with our motorbike on our side instead of riding them.

I can really relate to this video, but I travelled with my sister. We got along fine at home, but our differences made traveling so difficult. She likes hotels, but I like hostels. She likes clubs, but I like staying in. She likes more developed countries, but I like poorer countries. She likes taking it slow, but I like doing everything fast in order to see everything. It's sad to say that because of our trip around Asia and the Middle East, we have not talked to each other for two years and yet we are siblings.

I went to Australia for a month with my friend and it was my first time traveling abroad, first night there i didn't see my friend. I actually saw him only in passing or when we had to catch flights, we got along well, but ultimately i went crazy with happiness hanging out with other hostel mates and ended up exploring other places not planned. So it wasn't bad expect when my friend didn't shower for 3 days and his B. O was killing me. But now i travel alone.

Great video guys I just got back from a 3 weeks long trip with 4 of my friends and let me tell you that was a disaster if it comes to the decision making. But when we all agreed to something and just chilled it was awesome Let me just say that each of us is totally different personality so we know there will be cracks but I think we all know that we can't go for a trip like that in this combination ever again haha
