Thinking about joining us?
Find out what a Books in Places trip is really like
Join us for a relaxed online get-together with people who have already travelled with Books in Places.
If you like the idea of one of our trips but feel a little nervous about coming on your own, meeting a group of people you don't know, or simply aren't quite sure what to expect, this is for you.
A friendly, informal chat
Ask people who have actually been on our trips
You'll be joined on Zoom by a few Books in Places guests who have travelled with us before.
You'll be able to hear what they thought of their trips and ask them anything you'd like to know.
What's it like turning up on your own? Is it easy to get to know everyone? How much time do we spend together? What are the book discussions like? Is there plenty of time to yourself?
Sometimes it's much more useful to hear the answers from someone who's already done it.
What to expect
A very relaxed chat with fellow book lovers
Hear from previous guests
Find out what they were wondering about before their first trip and what the experience was actually like.
Ask anything you like
From travelling alone and meeting the group to meals, excursions, book discussions and free time.
Or simply listen
You don't have to ask a question or even turn your camera on. You're very welcome just to come along and listen.
Coming on your own?
You're certainly not the only one
Most people who join Books in Places trips travel on their own.
But I know that doesn't necessarily make booking your first trip feel any less daunting. Joining a group of people you've never met before can feel like quite a big step.
Hopefully this online get-together will make that first step a little easier.
