Singles: vacations to meet the soul mate | M6 | Zone Interdite

There are 14 million single people in France. For them it’s no longer a question of going on vacation with friends who are already in a couple or a family. The new trend is to set out single and return as a couple, with ?made to measure? holidays reserved for singles. Cruises, trips abroad, hiking for singles or even ?singles-camping??campsites organised for singles to meet each other. Over the last two years there’s been something for every taste. We shared vacations with several single people in search of their soul mate. Franck, 30 and single for a year, goes off to Avoriaz?to ski, but especially to cruise the pistes for a mate. Daisy, 35 and mother of two, dreams of a stable relationship. She’s chosen an entirely new form of vacation: a week in Djberba, assisted by a coach in the art of seduction. And, reserved for students, a vacation in Spain strictly barred to the under-30s. A formula inspired by the American “spring break”. In the United States there are nearly 100 million Lonely Hearts. Agencies have designed tailor-made ?Romance Tours? for them. One tour operator even offers a group tour for American men in search of Russian women. For around 6,000 dollars, beautiful Ukrainian women are shipped to the Dominican Republic.
