Why Traveling With Your Best Friend Is The Best

Nothing beats traveling to new place to meet new people, try new things, and learn a new culture. But when you travel with your best friend, everything is just better. You always have someone to do something with and you will never be alone in a different country. Here are just some reasons why traveling with your best friend is the best.

1. You are going somewhere different with someone just like you.

Going somewhere different can be scary. it could be a different country with a different language, or this could just be your first time leaving the country. Going with your best friend will make this process much easier. Traveling can get stressful, but your best friend helps make it less stressful.

2. There really is no arguing on what to do, because you guys want to do everything together.

Being basically the same person, arguing is seldom to nonexistent. You make lists of things to do and cross them out as you go. Every day is an adventure with your best friend, so just imagine what it would be like in another country.

3. They will be there to help you when it comes to spending.

Your best friend will be honest with you and tell you what to spend on. It is easier to split things and save money. Splurging is easier when you are alone, but with your best friend, it is easier to save money to spend on more important things.

4. Your Instagram will boom with artsy pictures of you.

If your best friend is like mine, then they will always be there to capture the moment and get you at your best angle. It cuts out the awkwardness of asking a stranger to take a picture of you. Once they take a picture of you, remember to always reciprocate and become their personal photographer too.

5. Double the outfit possibilities.

Don't like the outfit you are wearing? Ask your best friend if you can borrow something. Don't like what they are wearing? Tell them to take a look through your stuff. You two will always be looking on point and all you have to remember is that sharing is caring.

6. You will always have someone there for you.

Feeling a little homesick? All you have to do is look at your best friend, because they are like a little piece of home. It is okay to be homesick, because your best friend might be too. They are there for you through thick and thin because they are your best friend.

7. You can always be yourself.

There is no need to fake who you are in front of new people to look cool. You can always be yourself around your best friend, and that's why you love them.

8. You get to know them even better.

If you think you know everything that there is to know about your best friend, then you are wrong. Traveling with your best friend is when you really get to know everything about them. You get to know more about the little things, why they don't like this and that, etc.

9. You will always feel safer because there is someone with you.

Being alone in a different city can be intimidating, and you probably wouldn't feel the safest. But being with your best friend can make you feel safer and will probably make your parents happier, because that means you are always going out with a partner.

10. You will create memories that will last a lifetime.

Trust me, if you travel somewhere with your best friend, it will be one of the best moments of your life. It will be a trip you will never forget.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
