Group travel sounds like a great idea in theory – who doesn’t want to see the world (or at least some of it) with their friends and family? In practice, travelling with your nearest and dearest isn’t always a walk in the park – something I can attest to. I recently returned from a fortnight backpacking around Mexico with three friends. What should have been a dream trip turned out to be a disaster as we fell out over food, finance and almost everything under the sun. After seven patience testing days, I decided to salvage the trip by splitting from my ‘friends’ and going solo.
