“Some people like to travel with a companion. Other people prefer to travel alone. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your choice.”

Some people believe that traveling alone will be useful. For example, solo travelers can make or change their decisions without considering other people’s needs. They do not have to care about time and budget of their companions. However, in my opinion, travelling with someone is more helpful since an unexpected journey does not guarantee safety but often needs others’ hands and emotional support.

First, traveling has potential accidents, which people may need someone’s help. Let’s say travelers lose their wallets or bags. It can be easier to borrow money from their companions than from a person who they have never met before. Another example is that if they should change their flat tires on a road trip, their companions will assist them. Thus, having a companion enables a traveler to handle troubles efficiently.

Moreover, to travel with a companion helps travelers feel safe. For instance, a female traveler stays at an accommodation alone or even a man goes hiking to a dangerous canyon by himself. He or she might be afraid of being alone, especially at night. If they had a friend, they would feel safer than being alone. Therefore, travelling with someone will give a traveler emotional support and allow them to avoid fear.


In conclusion, even though travelling alone may help people feel freer, I strongly recommend being with a companion. After all, traveling with a companion will be helpful emotionally and physically.
