I agree completely. Married guys think that travel is easy for a single person because a single person doesn't have a wife complaining about her husband going somewhere. What they forget is that they often have to do no preparation because the wife keeps the house running while they are gone. She makes sure that bills are paid and takes care of the yard. She makes sure that animals are fed and that the door is locked. If he forgets something extremely important, she can have it sent to him by next-day air if necessary. I become very angry at people who suggest that travel should be easy for me.

I don’t travel well because I always forget something and I prefer my own bed unless I can afford a Hilton or Hyatt, where the beds are more comfy.
It’s hard on anyone, single or couple, to travel. Plants need water. Pets have to be kenneled or have someone come feed them. Bills can’t wait. I do think it’s unfair to base fees on ‘double occupancy.’

Good points, I know myself, I'm glad I have Mom to "watch my six" in these affairs if and when they do come up. Still yuns brought up good points that if your single, you do need to make sure the bills are paid, your pets taken care of along with whatever else we can think up.
