“Traveling together is a wonderful experience for any couple. You get to see a new part of the country or the world with the person you love most. Plan accordingly to steer clear of the most common couples traveling mistakes for an unforgettable, romantic trip”.
A romantic getaway sounds like a dream come true, especially in an age of inundation by Instagram-worthy vacation images from friends. It’s easy to forget that a trip isn’t all hours by the pool, hanging out in novelty floats and sipping beautiful drinks. Planning and considering a few key elements ensures you’ll both have a wonderful time on your next vacation.
Leaving one person to handle all of the logistics
In many relationships, it’s natural for one person to take the lead on the logistics for a vacation, such as booking and printing plane tickets and making dinner reservations. When you aren’t this person, you may assume that your partner is okay with handling these responsibilities all the time. Don’t make this assumption. Pick up the slack, and offer to take care of a few details. Alternatively, make time to sit down and figure out the logistics together. You’ll enjoy spending time working on your trip and have more invested in the vacation because you’ve both helped plan it.
Skimping on the privacy
Spending an entire week with the love of your life sounds romantic. In reality, cramped living quarters get old very quickly. Bite the bullet, and book lodging with at least two rooms and some options for personal space, such as a private balcony or closed-off bedroom area. You’ll both appreciate the fact that your lodging makes it easy to spend at least a couple of hours a day apart from each other, leaving you refreshed and ready to hit the town again.
Not planning for meals and snacks
There is nothing like extreme hunger to make couples more susceptible to fighting. When you’re on the go for long stretches of the day on vacation, you may not have prepared for a snack or meal breaks.”
