How do couples travel together and still get along? Based on our long-term trip for two, we answered that question and offered a few other couples travel tips at the web site TraveLinkSites.
We come clean about a few of our misadventures, including the photo above. Sometimes a wrong turn can lead to a completely unexpected experience, as it did at this Buddhist convent in Ho Chi Minh City. Also find out our secret pet peeve about the other, although we guess they’re not so secret anymore.

Ha! Great stuff.
I was traveling with a girl I met on the road last year. It was an absolute blast, but not without the occasional moments. But I wouldn’t swap those few months for anything. Somehow, everything’s more enjoyable when you’ve got someone to share it with.
Hi Dave,
Thanks for the insight. Glad the “occasional moments” were worth it.
Cheers,
Michael

I will tell you guys, even after xx number of years and a close relationship, the at home couple is rarely the travel couple.
I seem to have the energizer bunny at my side while he’s on vacation…
I got to remind him to chill at time and he has to remember patience when I am interested in other things than him.

Hi Barbara,
Yes it does take some adjustment to spend so much time together. We can picture Didier as the Energizer Bunny.
Cheers!
