1 Financial Arrangements - Most girls will have a fee schedule, and I cover all expenses - airfare (same class of travel as me), entertainment that we shared, hotel (2 rooms or a suite with 2 bathrooms more on that in a bit), meals we shared.  I also paid for a few spa treatments when I was tied up with work and had her charge meals to the room that we didn't share. The $xx,ooo you are giving her is for her time.  It is very reasonable for you to pick up every other travel expense, but not necessary (IMHO) to take her shopping, etc. unless you want to give her a gift above and beyond.

2a. Sick of date - not yet.  I've done this a few times and have had good success.  With each of them we did an overnight or two prior so that we would know if we were compatible (i.e make sure she doesn't snore like a freight train, etc.).  I also only travel with those that I really connect with so the risk of 'date fatigue' is reduced.  Hot time every night and a few lunch breaks too.  One girl actually arranged for a double one night with a local girl.  Very cool.

2b. Hotel - It is very classy to either book two rooms (adjoining) or get a suite that has at least two bathrooms and a separate living space.  Privacy is  a very nice thing to have and having your own bathroom is priceless.  She will adore you if you do this.  On occasion, I've asked to sleep separately because I needed to get up early, and didn't want to be disturbed by someone tossing and turning next to me but the general rule is we share a bed and have space when we need it.  Communication is key.

3. Horror stories - No problem with immigration or customs (both US citizens in all cases), and we both knew each others name and contact info.  This can be an inconvenience if you get separated and you need to page someone or leave them a message where they need to show I to retrieve it.

4. Tips - Communicate expectations in advance. Understand what her boundaries are and respect them.  Issues that you'll encounter can generally be taken care of with a little give and take from either party. If you rent a car and she wants to use it, be sure to add her name to the rental agreement.  If there's an accident while she is driving, it's a pain in the ass.

Most important...Enjoy yourself.  You have got entertainment for every night of the week.   Live it up!

All went well.  I recall a rate of $1,500/day and all expenses.

We never got on each other's nerves and had no horror stories either.  (She did need some medical attention which we were able to get quickly, conveniently and cheaply.)

Best advice is to not pick someone unless you've done at least an overnight (We had done two.), and are sure of your compatibility.

I took a provider to Hawaii once for ten days, and it was a complete fucking disaster. We were dating so there were no financial arrangements any different from taking any other GF on vacation. I paid for everything including shopping, but 10 days was probably 8 days too many. We broke up almost immediately upon returning to the mainland.

As for overseas, I have never felt the need to bring a P4P date along with me, I have always been quite content to find company once I got there. Fortunately language barriers don't bother me a bit. lol besides look at all the mony you save on only buying one plane ticket. lol

I went to a caribbean country with a client for a week.  Wont discuss payment as that is just TMI.  But there are easy ways to handle that.  Ask her if she wants cash, direct deposit, if she prefers to book her own flight, etc.

I'd known him for about 6 months so it was pretty well established that we'd get along.  And we did for the first 5 days.  After that, we just started to get on eachother's nerves a bit.  But thats pretty inevitable when you're in such close proximity to anyone.  We shared a suite.  It would've been nice to have my own room with his snoring, and houghing (spelling?) up phlegm in the morning, lol!  Plus I got food poisoning on day 5 after eating dinner in the jungle with some locals.  Would've been nice to have my own bathroom as I was getting ill.

All in all, I'd recommend it if you've seen her a few times and you seem to enjoy eachother's company.
