Title | Traveling for Singles |
Text | Single people can choose among many different types of travel experiences that are "targeted at" (aimed at; intended for) people who are looking for a romantic relationship and want to have a good time while they do it. A singles cruise can be a good "starting point" (something to begin with), but those cruises "attract" (generate interest from) singles with many different interests and experiences. Other travel experiences are designed to help singles meet other singles who are more similar to themselves. Some singles tours focus on a specific sport or hobby. For example, a singles trip could focus on skiing or "kayaking" (paddling a small, one-person boat) in a particular area. A single person who "signs up" (registers for) for one of those trips knows that the other singles on that trip will share his or her interest in skiing or kayaking. Other singles tours might focus on a particular culture or language, or maybe even the food of a different country. Still other travel experiences target singles by "restricting" (putting limitations on) who can participate. For example, the trips might be only for singles of a certain age or of a certain religion. Other singles travel experiences are designed only for singles who make a certain amount of money or have a certain amount of "wealth" (money; financial value). The tours often arrange special events to help the singles "get to know each other" (become more familiar) more quickly. For example, a tour might include several dinners and dances or "receptions" (quiet parties for people to meet each other) where singles are "encouraged" (told it would be a good idea to do something) to introduce themselves to each other and begin looking for "potential" (possible) romantic partners. |
