This topic is about a 55-year-old woman from Victoria, Canada, who is planning a solo trip to Amsterdam. She has an ileostomy due to Crohn’s disease and is looking for a travel companion to join her during her two-week vacation, which spans the last week of February and the first two weeks of March. While she is prepared to travel alone, she would enjoy having someone with similar interests to share the experience.
Here are some insights and advice shared by others:
1. Some people expressed interest but mentioned they couldn't join her due to teaching commitments or financial constraints. One person noted that Amsterdam can be quite expensive, especially with the strong euro.
2. It was suggested that she specify her preferred activities, such as whether she enjoys cycling or nightlife, to help find a compatible travel partner.
3. Others shared their own travel experiences to various destinations like Mexico, Belize, Prince Rupert, Cabo, Tenerife, and Kerala houseboats, although these stories did not include specific advice for traveling with an ostomy.
