I am doing the same new places so I can explore without that sudden memory popping in my head. Some if the singles holidays are so expensive, let us all know who you book with.

@Punto i’m going with Titan Travel. They pick you up from home and drop you at the airport. Same in reverse when you come home. Lets see how it works!

Not heard of them, i will have a look. I know newmarket holidays are meant to be hood for solo but they dont do airport drop off.
Titan aren’t a solo holiday company, they are owned by Saga.
Its a bit of a long story because Jim and I were supposed to be going on this holiday together. We had talked about the trip, and who we wanted to travel with, but I didnt know he had actually booked it. I only discovered about 4 months after he had died when the company sent an email to say one of the hotels had been changed. I’ll let you imagine how much panic I felt!
Anyway, after rather than doing as I had asked, and giving me a price to travel alone, Titan just went ahead and charged the holiday to just me. I decided ‘what the heck lets jtst go’. Its done me a favour because i’m sure that if I’d had the option I would have cancelled. Lets just hope it all works out now.
Oh wow! That must have been a shock knowing the holiday was all booked, but well done for going… that was a really brave step to take!

That would have been hard to deal with at the time, but you are brave doing the holiday, and I’m sure your husband would have wanted you to go and relax. Take lots of pictures and let us all know how you get on xxx

I’ve had really bad anxiety before each of my holidays this year and even found myself taking all the different helpline numbers such as Samaritans along with me just in case. Luckily all my fears have been unfounded and I have mostly enjoyed myself although having a few emotional moments. You will be fine, hope you have a lovely time xx
Where are you going next for an adventure?
I think we all get a bit anxious doing something new, but once we have overcome the 1st day, it becomes a new achievement on our grief journey.
