Do you dare to travel with mates?

So you and your besties have decided to pack it all up and head for the open road, with Beyonce and The Parlotones music to provide the perfect soundtrack. But before you jump into your car, consider these things to ensure that you make it a holiday to remember instead of regret:Image Courtesy: Johne Ellis @ www.art.swg.co.za

1. Figure out where you’re gonna be crashing
It might seem like fun to go wherever your spontaneous nature takes you, but it’s much more fun to know where you’re gonna be sleeping tonight. Plan ahead.
2. Organise who’s in charge of what
This will help everyone pull their weight on holiday without one person having to do everything. Resentment, much?

3. Figure out your wants
What are you hoping to gain from the holiday? What do your friends want? If you’re gonna be all about doing your own thing and flying solo to meet new people but your mates are keener on hitting the town together, you might clash. Establishing what you all want before the holiday will help you figure out a game plan that makes everyone happy.
