Study: Which of the Russians is ready for resort romances?
Maps conducted a study to determine who is more likely to admit to holiday romances.
It was surveyed 2 thousand users of Runet over 18 years old, who made tourist trips over the past year.
“Dating turned into a holiday romance at 17%. Romantic travel adventures are equally popular among people of all ages.”
Men are more willing to admit: 21% of men and only 13% of women said about a holiday romance. 6% on the trip met their other half, and among people under 35 this share is several times higher than among the older audience.
A third of respondents (30%) travel every six months, the majority (55%) – go on tours once a year or less.
The majority of respondents (92%) meet new people on trips: 42% - often, every second - sometimes, 8% - never. Most often, they refuse dating because of their company, desire to be alone (31%), shyness (30%). 6% of respondents stop not knowing the language.
Vacationers meet in hotels (46%), excursions (45%), on the beach or by the pool (39%), in bars and restaurants (36%). Only one in ten (11%) uses dating sites and apps.
Half of dating (53%) has no continuation: people spend time together on a trip, but then do not communicate. However, 43% of respondents managed to find companions, and 41% - good friends. A third of those who met on trips (34%) found people with common professional interests.”
