Nancy, 69, and Barbara, 58, met over a hotel breakfast in Munich in 2022. Despite being from different continents, they clicked instantly and have travelled together ever since

fter retiring from her job as a nurse, Nancy loved to spend time travelling, but she never expected it would lead to her meeting a new best friend. In 2022, she went to Munich, Germany, a city she regularly visited. “I live in North Carolina but I would travel to Europe on my own because my husband still works,” she says. “Travelling is my way of relaxing and rewarding myself after all those years of hard work.

Her inquiry sparked a conversation, and the two clicked. “I invited her to join us for coffee,” says Barbara. As a single traveller, Nancy appreciated the company. “I told her about a Victorian tea room I wanted to go to and asked if they wanted to come too,” she says. “They came along and, afterwards, Barbara snuck off and paid the bill,” says Nancy. “I hardly knew her and she bought me this wonderful champagne tea.”Barbara says it felt easygoing and they found they had lots in common.

“When I went to her house, I felt so relaxed and happy,” says Nancy. “Anything I mentioned, like the museums or the markets, Barb made it happen. She knows so much about history and culture, it was like having my own personal guided tour. She’s made so many of my travel dreams come true.”
