After looking at vik's photos in the stealth camping thread it made me think how lucky some folks are to have a spouse or S.O. that likes to tour. From what I see most tourers either find a buddy or go it alone. I have done lots of solo travel and enjoy it as people seem to approach a solo person more. In 2009 I plan to do some 1-2 week (possibly longer) tours and may post on ACA or crazyguy to find a buddy but if not alone is fine. A compatible easy going person may be hard to find but people do it all the time.
