Now people are not dependent only on family or partner for holidays. Office colleagues or friends are now becoming people's new travel buddies. This trend is continuously increasing.

People's perspective on travel has started changing. Now people are not celebrating holidays only with their family or partner. But they are also travelling with those people who work with them in the office every day. That is, froligs... Actually froligs are such colleagues who have now become your friends and also celebrate holidays with you.
Thomas Cook reports, travel buddies remain colleagues, not family
According to the recent Thomas Cook India Holiday Report, now about 28 percent of Indians are celebrating holidays with their office friends. According to this report, even today 65 percent people prefer to travel with their family and 60 percent people like to travel with their partner. But now the scope of office friendship has also spread from the meeting room to the mountains and valleys in the form of travel.
Traveling with colleagues is removing work fatigue and strengthening relationships
Many experts believe that trips where you go with office friends, create a different emotional connection with your office colleagues. You also get relaxation, in this way not only the stress of work can be reduced but you are also able to understand your colleagues in a better way. The same experts say that when you get a relaxed environment outside work, the relationship between you and your colleagues becomes deeper through conversation.
Differences also come to the fore
Traveling with colleagues is considered good. But this research also warns that when professional and personal relationships come together, sometimes misunderstandings and differences can also come to the fore. Things that never come to the fore in the office can come to the fore on a trip. In such a situation, it is important that you clear some things before going on a trip. For example, do not take work related complaints on the trip. Give everyone some space and keep friendship away from office politics.
Young people are liking this travel style
Today's generation gives more importance to equality, understanding and freedom in relationships. While there are responsibilities and conditions in a family trip, there is no restriction or pretense in travelling with a colleague. In such a situation, people are choosing such colleagues as their travel partners whose thinking, daily life and spending habits match.
Traveling with Froligs is like getting recharged
Traveling with friends is considered to be a kind of recharge. Where you can have fun with your colleagues. You can also relax and many times the unspoken wisdom of friends makes your trip even more special.
