    Whether you share a cocktail-fuelled pash on the beach with a Norwegian backpacker, a romantic one-on-one sojourn with a French student or a sultry sumba in the arms of a too-hot-to-handle Spanish globe trekker, these are often one-off, fireworky affairs. The Fellow Traveller Crush If you’ve ever met a like-minded traveller on the trip of a lifetime, it’s easy to see why coupling up might seem like a good idea. You’re both single, love experiencing fascinating cultures and exotic locales and share a unique kinship that you’re sure you’d never find back home. Not surprisingly, these types of romances can work. If you’re prepared to face the reality check at the end of the journey, that is.

Particularly, if you discover your new love interest is only after one thing – and that’s a meal ticket back home with you. The Globe-Trotter On the Prowl It’s no secret that you’re bound to run into some fellow travellers on your adventures whose life-long calling is to ‘bag a babe’ in every country they visit.
