    O/p, do not go on holidays with that person. She is jealous of you. What she really wants is for you to offer to subsidise her holiday. If you go on holidays she will try and borrow money from you at every hands turn. You will never get it back. She is angry with herself for wasting her money and is taking the anger out on you.
    If you go on holiday with her on the basis some company is better than none, do not lend money. If you do find yourself manoeuvred into giving her money, make sure that it is on the basis she signs a receipt each time, and there is a contemporaneous phone call to her parents.

    Oh Op, what a terrible situation for you. You're friend sounds like an absolute b*tch and I agree with the previous poster, it sounds like she wanted you to offer to lend her money/subsidise her so she could go. You are better off not going on holiday with her, as she sounds incredibly flakey and probably would be scabbing off you every five minutes. Do the following 3 things.

    1) Send her a link to this thread so she can see in black and white what a cow she has been and peoples opinions of her.
    2) Go on holidays and have an amazing time. Follow the advice of the lone travellers who have posted in this thread. Think about it, you could have a life changing experience out there.
    3) Contact you friend one last time when you get back to send her the amazing pics of your fantastic trip and then never contact her again. You are better off without toxic people like her in your life.

    Best of luck OP, hope you have an amazing time. Maybe come back on here when you get back and let us know how you got on.
