TLDR, set expectations first before any trip same goes for travelling with friends.
everyone got their own thing they want to do when travelling, so either you set expectations beforehand OR plan the itinerary thoroughly with each other. like i how told my friends i usually wander aimlessly around to explore, so they can feel free to ditch me and do own thing
such simple thing to prevent more future issues

QUOTE(bengang15 @ Sep 4 2025, 07:23 AM) This is true. Even with spouse. We always take it for granted that there will be compromise. But end up someone ends up with sour face the worse are usually the ones closer to you, thats where you need to make more effort to communicate alot on whats on the itinerary instead of assuming. thankfully my fiancee is kinda lazy to setup itinerary and just leave it to me, but i would still ask a tonne on what she wants to do and show her pics/videos of the location done by travel vloggers first

QUOTE(knumskul @ Sep 4 2025, 10:58 PM) Lots of times people ask me where this or that photo was taken and my answer is "Dunno. Around this area because I aimlessly explore and stumble across this". Have even wandered into residential areas to admire the houses, surroundings and life. Just set a time and meet up point and split up.yeah you get to find more stuff by wandering and exploring than just sticking to the usual routes bolded part is super true

QUOTE(knumskul @ Sep 4 2025, 11:12 PM) Yea get off the main path once in a while will increase chance to see something different. Everybody has own pacing also. I tend to naturally walk faster but explore longer than people I travel with. Same thing when snorkeling in the sea. haha this reminded me when i was in Japan with my fiancee, she said i sometimes walk too fast and she cant catch up meanwhile im just.. but thats my normal speed.. and no, she does not have short legs. we are similar height even lol
