Hi BGray :shy:

I'll be sure to keep an eye out for your review. Iceland looks incredible! Amazing and beautiful scenery, that and maybe a chance or two for a Ski lesson!! :D I've always wanted to try that...or Snowboarding

If you are looking to go with people around your age, then maybe Just You is not for you as the average age of travellers is between 40-80, though there are younger people on some trips. Age is just a number so why worry about it? If you get on well with people of all ages, then do go ahead and book New York with Just You. I have been on 8 Just You trip and enjoyed each and every one of them. When I went to Jordan there were a couple of ladies in their 20s, but on most of the other trips the age range has been higher. I have found that sometimes older people are more fun to be with!

Jaya,

I apologise if my question has offended anyone in someway but I in no way meant it in an offensive manner. I have nothing against older people however I would like to know the possibility of travelling with people my own age. As you have stated some younger people do tend to travel and that's all I wanted to know, however if I've phrased it in a bad way I apologise.

You didnt offend me. in fact this question is asked a lot. I am 28 and i have been using JY since i was 22 and my advice would be to just go for it. You have nothing to lose and i have never felt out of place or uncomfortable!

Mark

Believe me, you did not offend me. I was just saying that if you wanted to travel with people your age (which is understandable) then perhaps Just You is not for you. May be I have phrased my reply in a bad way! Why don't you book one short trip with Just You and see how it goes? I do hope that you will find something of interest and take the plunge. Happy travelling.

Mark

Thanks for that Mark :shy: I just want to try and get to know people around my own age. I don't have many friends so if I can meet people I'd like too.

Sorry you've been through a rotten time. If you have ten JY hols you're interested in, why don't you list them here and those of us who've had experience of them might be able to help you narrow it down a bit?

Cheers,

Bob

I be honest it's just been a rubbish end to the year last year. I spilt up with my boyfriend coz for lack of better words he was a selfish rat! My uncle died, I ended up moving back with my mum being in a town I hate and am just looking to try and do something with my life lol. I'm really restless at the moment lol I just want to get away for a while. I've got about ten different places I want to go I just can't pick one to do first :-P

Hi Allyjane

I can completely sympathise with you on the boyfriend front. My ex husband was exactly like that. He left me with enough issues that it took 10 years to sort. Now I'm all about me and what I want to do. Age doesn't matter. Hey I'm only 33 but I'm going to Pompeii, Sorrento and the Bay of Naples in June. It's something that he would never have done in a million years but I am interested in. I have been back with my parents since my split and this will be my first trip completely alone (ie not travelling with anyone).

Pick a place you really want to see and go.

Good luck and I hope you have a good time wherever you end up going.

Sue.

Sorry to hear about the tough time you have had lately. You are still young and life has to go on so please be brave and pick one holiday from your list of 10 and go ahead and book it. This will be your first step in starting all over again and in doing so you will have lots of fun discovering new places and meeting new people. Life is short and one should try and make the most of it.

Good luck.

Jaya

I completely understand about there being too many holidays to chose from. I always find that I have the next couple of years planned and then JY Will goes and throws a spanner in the works by introducing fabulous new trips (it happened with Hawaii and Namibia and now has happened with the hinted at trips to Guatemala and Alaska). I sometimes think I'm never going to get to see Mount Rushmore.....!

One thing to consider is when you want to go as some of the trips only go a couple of times during the year. Then have a look at the climate for each destination to see when its best to go. You could also look to see what holidays already have chat on this forum about them as it always helps to touch base with fellow travellers to ease those pre-holiday nerves. Other than that, just put the countries into a hat a go with whatever comes out first. I started doing these trips at age 30 and thirteen years later have done 22 holidays with 3 more booked this year. The world is a big place just waiting for you to visit it.

As Bob suggests if you post your options we can offer our advice about them.

Best of luck

Sally

p.s. Bob - just four weeks to go now...........

Hi

I've done a few trips with just you and im always the youngest at 33. I can understand wanted to go with people your own age and I was a little worried, however I have always mixed well with the groups and found people to enjoy my time with. Once you start, you won't stop! I have looked at other companies but always come back to JY. I would go with the trip that most takes your fancy. As others say, pop on here where your thinking of, there are always people offering advice. Also ask the editor what the ages range is on the trip your thinking of. Let me know if u need any more advice

Lucinda

1) New York

2) Iceland

3) Cuba

3) Greece

4) Austria

5) San Francsico

6) New Orleans (for the music lol)

7) Tuscany

8) Cyprus

9) Norway

10) Barcelona

I'm delighted you've made your decision - Barcelona looks amazing and it's on my wish list too! Of the places you're interested in, I've been to Austria, San Francisco, part of Tuscany and Norway and can recommend them all for great scenery and iconic sights. I'm off to Iceland in a fortnight and hope to write up a review of that trip when I get back. Now you've made your decision, you can start to read up on Barcelona and really look forward to it!

Have a great time,

Bob
