For those interested I've started a blog about my experiences as a single traveller following a couple of discussions on this forum giving me the idea to do it.

http://micks-travels.blogspot.co.uk/ 

Obviously there are articles about lots of different solo holidays but plenty of JY trips I've done (done 10 so far with some more booked), giving the company good publicity. Two of my JY hols are on there so far and Americas Golden West from 2010 will be next added.

It'll serve two purposes first gives me a journal of my travels but hope its also a guide for all solo travellers whether thinking about group hols or going independantly.

I've had some good feedback from a few that use this forum with comments and a couple of nice emails. If its of interest or useful for you any positive feedback and constructive suggestions how it can e improved would be appreciated.

Its early days and still under construction, I've lots of stuff to add but will keep trying to add and improve.

Merry Christmas to everyone.

Hi Cindy,

Enjoying doing the Blog, still lots to add eventually, thinking about it is bringing many memories back. Had some nice feed back which certainly encourages.

Judith Chalmers arguably had the best job ever.

Seriously contemplating the Mexico trip in October, but at the moment having problems at work, once they are sorted I will be able to plan my trips.

Hi Mick,

Thanx for the blog a great read.

I enjoy travel and in the past have gone with friends.Last year I did not get away as you say waiting around for someone to go with.so I am going to bite the bullet and go away on my own.

Feeling a bit anxious about doing it and JY looks a very good company to chose.

Was actually a lunch date and catch up with a friend nothing serious, but didn't happen as something cropped up and was cancelled, so nothing to tell.

Hi Paula,

Yes JY is probably the best way to go if you are anxious about travelling solo, they'll look after you and you'll soon relax when you get to know the other passengers.
