About us
It's My Time to Travel is a 50+ travel group for solo travelers, singles, active adults, and anyone looking for travel companions and new friends to explore the world with.
We believe you don't need a spouse, partner, or "plus one" to travel. Here you can meet like-minded travelers, find travel buddies, learn about international and U.S. travel, attend fun travel events, and join small-group adventures around the world.
We travel solo—but not alone.

### ❤️ Let's Get to Know Each Other
Who are you?
Why does Japan interest you?
What experience are you most excited about?
Is there something you've always wanted to see, taste or experience in Japan?
What do you like to do during free time when you travel?
And who might become the person you grab a coffee or sake with, sit beside at dinner, wander through a market with—or travel with again someday?
Shared experiences build relationships.
By getting to know one another before departure, we aren't arriving in Japan as a collection of strangers.
We're arriving as a travel community that has already started laughing, sharing stories, making connections and looking forward to experiencing this adventure together.
Whether you're already booked or still considering joining us, come be part of the conversation.
Ask questions. Share ideas. Meet your travel companions. Discover more about Japan. And get excited about everything waiting for us.
Because one of the best parts of traveling isn't simply where you go.
It's who you share it with.
We may start as solo travelers, but we experience the world together.
🌍 It's your time. Just not alone.

You don't need to know anyone.
You don't need to bring a travel partner.That's the whole point.
