All is possible in life. Even if you have agreed a year ago to go with your girlfriend to the Turkey, this does not mean that she will. The first thought that comes to mind after the collapse of the plans - also to stay home. But then, carefully analyzed and weighed all, come to mind more sensible idea: "Am I, all so grown up and self-confident, I can not take care of itself? Can I let someone, even the best friend, a welcome break Vacation? .. " Well, let's evaluate the "pros" and "cons" rest alone.

Pros

Vacation of your dreams. Freedom - an amazing thing. But we must be able to evaluate its strengths and fully exploit them. At first glance it seems that there is nothing worse than losing the opportunity to go on holiday in a fun "home" company. But let's look at it another way. Now your choice of country, the resort, the duration of the tour, free time is unlimited - no preference girlfriend or her whims ... You can choose a tour of your choice or go to the beach, make holiday romance and not listen at the same anger and resentment girlfriend, which in the evening may have to look for a company for the holidays. In other words, you can realize your dream vacation - without any restrictions, doing only what you really like, not taking into consideration anyone's interests and tastes.
All men - brothers. If in everyday life we are more accustomed to the gloomy people on public transport and the supermarket, then you are on vacation from them quickly otvyknete. On holiday people relaxed, so all around friendly, open contact, and any familiarity takes a few seconds. Wherever you go - the beach, restaurant, bar - you always expect concerned and pleasant interlocutor. And so here only for you to decide - with whom to date, and with whom - the evening.
New friends. If you come to rest in the company, then stay with it throughout the holidays. Loneliness also allows you to make new friends, fill up the contact list and spend time with "fresh" people. Romantic offers you will also do a lot more often if you go alone, and not with a cohort of friends, when the part is not clear, you're free or busy. It's no secret that men are always easier to learn if a woman, not with his girlfriend.
Pride. Loneliness does not allow many of us feel confident. That's why people do not dare to go to distant countries alone. If you have overcome your fear and self-doubt, you should be congratulated. After you beat yourself, your own.

Cons

Money likes expense. Traveling alone is always a little more expensive than in the company. First, a single room is always more expensive than the "half" double. Secondly, it is related expenses - such as payment of a taxi to the airport, gratuities (unless you stay together, you can leave a tip at a time) and much more.
Security issues. Unpleasant situation can happen to anyone - this one is immune. For example, if you stole the purse, which contained all of your funds alone will be difficult to cope with this nuisance. If the next friend, it will help. Also, if you are traveling alone, you have no one to leave things, and you have to drag around them with you. Even at the beach you have to keep an eye on your beach bag for fear of missing things.
"The lady handed over to the baggage ...". A reasonable rest intelligent in everything, including in relation to baggage. Relax with a friend can take one for two hair dryers, shampoo, shower gel, hair spray and things like that. This will save space in a suitcase and will hold another breathtaking dress. If you are traveling alone, must rely only on themselves.
At the merrier. Together really fun - whether you go in the transfer, expect a landing on the aircraft at the airport. Can together plan, "poison" jokes or funny stories to remember from life. But you never know what can be said! In the end, you have a great opportunity to "chew the fat," but you see in everyday life, you're basically doing it in ICQ or mobile phone. If you are traveling alone, entertain yourself or you may have to "bother" to fellow travelers, finding among them a pleasant companion.
One head is good, two is better. If you combine the general with his girlfriend of English is likely to speak the rest will be much easier. And if your frendessa finished inyaz or school with advanced study of foreign language, you can do and to feel free and relaxed. This is true not only English. Maybe your girlfriend you knowledgeable in technical matters - for example, how to adjust the hot water in the shower or adjust the air conditioner in the room. In some other, more-informed and talented you may find, for example, the ability to bargain. By pooling their knowledge and skills with a friend you just unbeatable!
They say there is safety in numbers. But you are not in the field and in the resort, and you do not have to fight. Is that with your own fears. Enjoy your vacation, even on her own! Believe me, your solitude will not be long ...
