We are planning to visit desire in April or May 2018 and are extremely extremely excited to experience desire. We will probably be one of the few couples from India to travel all the way to Desire (23 hours flight one way!)
The only thing which is bothering us is whether we should travel with a group (takeover) or not? Could you guys help us by providing any insights on the pros and cons of traveling with a group.
We are not in lifestyle (even remotely) and would prefer a younger crowd. Any insights would be greatly appreciated!!
Well, dear potential friends from India, I must say it is interesting to read your post. Seems like Desire could be fun for you, but perhaps I could add a few observations--just from the casual observer...
First, you mention that you are "extremely, extremely excited to experience Desire". Just wondering, why so excited? Seems like you are excited to go to a place that really may not be what you're looking for. Since you are not "even remotely" in the Lifestyle, why would you want to go to a place where the majority (more than 50%) are lifestylers? Also, if you read up a little more on this website, I think you'd find that the majority of people at Desire are over 40, so there's another strike against being "extremely, extremely excited". And, to make things even "less" desireable, you're going to be with many people who are meat eaters.... So, without even trying too hard, you right there had the potential to "turn off" the overwhelming majority of people you may come in contact with.
May I suggest a few alternative ways to approach your potential extremely, extremely fun vacation:
First, no one cares where you are from--the people there will be nice and welcoming and friendly to you regardless of where you call home or the color of your skin--no joke. If being from India is a big deal to you, maybe New Delhi would be a more suitable destination. If you are looking for people who are just like you, why even bother with a 23 hour flight?
Second, know that you are going to be with a bunch of people in their 40's, 50's, 60's and even older. Rather than put up with old-timers, maybe spring break in Cancun would suit you better?
Third, you can find vegetables in Mexico. If a special diet is really a big deal, well, bring your own cook plate.
Other than that, maybe you think about what it IS about Desire that you really want. Rather than make a list of things you don't like, perhaps you change tune and think of all the things that draw you there, focus on whatever that is, and accept it for what it is--a vacation with a bunch of very nice people who have been seasoned with years of experience, mostly different from what you are used to, in a place that is wonderful and warm, with no judgment from others, people who are ok with being naked and sexy and non-judgmental. Who knows, maybe you could even find some new friends!
My last thought is this: Perhaps you start over, make a new login/username and throw out some positive energy.
You will find whatever it is that you seek--in life and after a 23 hour flight to Mexico.
Safe journey.
