I'm a travel influencer and here's a list of people I would NEVER travel with

A travel influencer has sparked a furious debate online after revealing the seven types of people he would refuse to go abroad with.

Ben Keenan, from Seattle, took to TikTok to share his 'extensive' list on the types of  personality traits to avoid when taking a trip.

The consultant and travel influencer often advises others on travel-related queries, but this video has left many viewers with a sour taste.

The influencer listed seven different reasons from 'people who sleep in on vacation' to 'picky eaters'.

Viewers have taken to the comment section to share their thoughts on the list. But Ben's advice has left some feeling ‘tired’, and one even concluded: 'You [Ben] are definitely someone I would NOT travel with.'

Ben started off the list with: 'People that when they need to recharge their battery in the middle of the day, they force you to go back to the hotel or Airbnb to do that.'

He added: 'I'm sorry, you're telling me you can't not speak to me in a park or at a cafe or with a glass of wine somewhere outdoors.'

Next the influencer said: 'People who sleep in on vacation. Unless you have been up since 4 am in the morning, there is absolutely zero reason why you need to be sleeping until... 11 am every single day.

'I can absolutely promise you I did not pay for this trip to New York for you to lay in bed.'

The third reason Ben gave was 'picky eaters', with little explanation as to why.

He added: 'On that same note, people who want to always eat meals at the same place that you're staying.'

Ben explained: 'Obviously having food on hand is fine, but the people who actually want to go to the store and pick up pasta supplies and then go back to your Airbnb to cook instead of going and trying local restaurants, that's an immediate no for me.'

Next, Ben turned to the money aspect of a getaway. He said: 'People who no stipulate a budget until they get there.

If you know that you cannot spend more than $100 a day, let me know that up front.

He added: 'I don't mind reducing what I'm spending, or I don't mind increasing what I'm spending if I'm capable of doing that and keeping up with your idea of vacation.

'But don't surprise me with a budget that's really high or a budget that's really low once we're there.'

Lastly, Ben said he wanted to avoid people with certain names, adding: 'If you're going international anyone named Rachel. If you're staying domestic, anyone named Brad, Chad, or Thad.'

The video captioned: 'My opinions on this are extensive #traveltiktok #travelinspo,' has since amassed nearly two million views. 

But many viewers have been left unimpressed with Ben's take on travel advice. One said: 'Your vacation makes me tired thinking about waking up early and doing things non stop.'
