We are going on a trip?
The evil tongues say that " happy love from afar four". the most romantic They affirm, without hesitation, that " love can with everything , even with distance . What side are you on?
Fall in love with a person who loves to travel is to get into the mouth of the wolf. Because yes, they have a special aura that will dazzle you one hundred percent. It's like when they tell you " don't turn around now" and of course you ignore it and dislocate your neck. Well, out of curiosity... pam! Cupid goes and shoots an arrow loaded with wanderlust at you. And you delighted.
Surely you have met making a stopover at an airport, on an express trip or fate has decided to play a joke on you in bad taste and you have joined the summer holidays with an Erasmus (that is living on the limit and not going up to the Preikestolen ).
Hold on, curves are coming!
DISTANCES A LA CARTE
We have distances for all tastes and intolerances. This goes by categories: national, international and combo. Be careful, this last one is like a well-charged cocktail , of those that you savor the first drink and your eyes water, but, of course, you continue drinking with pleasure. We introduce you the main variants:
- Light distance: he or she lives in your same city but travels a lot. It's like living in a constant 'neither with you nor without you' . What if a visit to his friend who lives in ** London **, what if a getaway to ** Milan ** or a weekend of party tourism in ** Berlin ** (because "those are pubs in conditions") . It is well known in the industry that hangovers are mitigated by buying candy at duty-free and not lying on the couch. What is it to spend a quiet Sunday at home? Netflix It's overrated, and **the bars in La Latina** too.
- Air bridge: If Shakespeare had known your story, you would be the protagonists of a tragedy in the style of Romeo and Juliet . In this section enters the love between provinces, the one who does not understand demonyms. Combinations as disparate as a Valencian with an Andalusian, a Basque with a Majorcan or 'El Clásico', a Madrid-Barcelona. And if on top of that one of the two (or both) is a traveling spirit Well, he turns off and let's go. It's the same as scoring an own goal and playing at home. But hey, they're there for something Iberia and the bird , No?
- Ultra distance: this is for adventurous souls , for daring. Have you fallen in love with someone who suffers the syndrome of 'I leave everything' ? Suddenly, one day like any other, he decides to leave to the other side of the world. For example to Australia , who have been told that Byron Bay now it is very fashionable. Surf, beach, good weather... That is quality of life and not the traffic jams of the Gran Vía. And there you stay, with a broken heart and an existential dilemma. Or if we put ourselves in the worst, you lived placidly in different countries until, **doing an interrail**, you coincided in **a nightclub in Prague**. Then you exchanged a couple of glances, the occasional dance, and by the way, (in an act of bravery) your numbers. Bravo!
Our advice: train your patience, get used to packing and unpacking and prepare your pocket.

THE GOOD SIDE OF THINGS: THE PROS
It doesn't matter what it is your drama Calm down, you are not alone. We are here to suggest that, if you can, get out of there as soon as possible. The one who warns is not a traitor. But if you prefer to be a little kamikaze , there they go the advantages of marking yourself a 'You to London and me to California':
1. Travel and love. What more could you want? This fusion is pleasure raised to the nth power. Traveling with your friends or family is great, but traveling with your partner is even better. There are cities which are the perfect setting to shoot a romantic movie : walk embraced by the **bohemian streets of Paris**, an idyllic **gondola ride through Venice** or a road trip through Tuscany. Plans, right? In love you will do tourism with different eyes, everything will seem wonderful , to the bench where the older gentlemen sit to feed the pigeons.
two. You are going to become fond of cities that are not yours. Maybe the first time you stepped on Saragossa didn't catch your eye, but when it became neutral territory and meeting point with your boyfriend or girlfriend things changed. You would even go to live in the capital tomorrow. You will fall in love with every place in the world that you travel hand in hand , and when you return alone it will not seem the same place. Because how well he sings Sabine : "to the place where you have been happy you should not try to return".
3. You will become an expert in testing hotel beds. We are always looking for and capturing the most comfortable mattresses, the whitest sheets and the softest pillows. Well, based on book rooms , at least once a month, you will know better than anyone that it is worth going to One Shot Queen Victoria Palace in Valencia or spend the ** Lisbon nights ** in the original hostel THE BEDROOM . You will make some reviews that neither TripAdvisor.
Four. You win that they are not missing! If you are together it will not be for comfort , that is more than clear. The attraction between you is stratospheric. You will count the hours, minutes and seconds left to see you. And when the time comes, it will be a full-fledged adrenaline rush.
5. By the time you realize it, you will have a Degree in Tourism and a Master in Strategic Planning. Not the very Willy Fog I would plan a meeting as well as you. What month can we meet? What days are the tickets cheaper? What city have we not visited yet? Conveyance? Accommodation? you have to nail the timing , that time is money and who does not take advantage of it is...
6. You will have a private tour guide and a personalized free tour. When your partner receives you in his native land, he will want to be the best guest to far exceed your expectations of the trip. Surely you will even visit areas of the city that you have never set foot in your life because “they are for tourists”. you just tell him what do you want to see, what do you want to eat and you partner in crime will take care of conquer you . get ready for to walk like never before and to make some Photos that will be the envy of all your followers Instagram.
7. They don't take 'no' for an answer. He will never say no to a getaway. people who travel they are always ready for anything nothing turns them back. If he has to go to your town in ** Castilla y León ** in the summer, he will go and with great pleasure. Surely you can think of some interesting rural plan, such as climb on a via ferrata. And of course, he will sign up for all the verbenas and will be the soul of the party. Positive point.
8. It will take you out of your comfort zone. have you ever eaten in a Turkish ** ? Nothing happens, there is always a first time. And if you go to a restaurant you know, he will ask you what do you usually order from the menu to rule out that option Now is the time to try new things. ** Ramen, sushi, potato omelette or your grandmother's stew , everything will be good for him, and for you too.
9. You will meet new people. If you share a flat, you will make friends with your colleagues. If he has gone away to live, when you visit, you will go out for a drink with his new friends. Or if you travel together, your more sociable side will come to light.
10. You will expand your vocabulary and foreign expressions will stick to you. If you have no idea English, the survival instinct will surprise you: I'll have a gin and tonic, please! you will know that in Barcelona they say 'thank you' , instead of thanks, and that in Canary Islands is fucked the bus , not the bus. And if you're going to Madrid you're going to have a good time 'mallet' right.
eleven. He will always have a thousand things to tell you. So much anecdotes of his travels like any nonsense of the day to day. a globetrotter you will have no problem dialogue on any subject, have been blessed with the gift of verbiage If something is missing in your relationship, it will not be the confidence.
12. They are very positive and patient people. Always they will have the solution for any problem . They are used to missing trains, flight delays, torrential rains while camping, and communicating by signs.
13. You will appreciate coming home. When you are away, you will miss your neighborhood, the food from your land, your friends, your family, your pet... And as soon as you land you will think: There is no place like home!
Venice, romantic like no other
BUT NOT EVERYTHING IS PINK: THE CONS
The drawbacks are few but intense
1. Damn Skype, FaceTime, endless WhatsApp audios, Instagram and all those weapons of mass destruction typical of an episode of Black Mirror. You will start a love-hate relationship with new technologies, especially with the last hour of connection.
two. The 5W of journalism as a philosophy of life. What? When? Where? Why? And the most important question: With who? interrogations to which your love will subject you in a distance relationship they are worse than a third degree and are the order of the day. Get ready.
3. The idealization. Live together 24 hours non-stop It is the litmus test. Your fairy tale will begin to lose the magic you will discover your loud snoring, manias, sudden mood swings and other peculiarities.
Four. Tickets rise like foam . Now that you had managed to agree on the dates, it is cheaper to buy shares on the stock market to pay for a flight. DRAMA.
In conclusion, if you don't like the nomadic lifestyle and you're madly in love, we're sorry to tell you that It doesn't get better with age. So if you can't handle it, join us. Luck!
