Ever wished you could travel on your own, but you weren’t sure exactly how to go about doing it? These days, more and more wanderers are opting to travel solo—leading the way for others to do the same!
Take a look at these four reasons that prove traveling solo isn’t just a good idea—it’s a great one:
You get to make the decisions.
You’ve experienced it—traveling to an awesome destination with your significant other, family, and/or friends, and wanting to go somewhere… that they didn’t. You end up missing out on that awesome experience to stay with the group.
Wandering solo says, “Forget that!”
Traveling alone allows you to be in control—from choosing your destination(s) and where you want to eat to just how much you want to fit in your schedule. Are you the kind of wanderer that’s always on the go or do you prefer to take each day as it comes, slowly and relaxed?
No matter your wandering style, when traveling solo, everything is your call!
It’s less expensive.
If you’re married or in a committed relationship, you already know traveling with your significant other means everything costs more. Double the drinks, double the meals, double the airline tickets… you get the idea.
And anyways—a little alone time isn’t a bad thing! Which leads to…
You can take time to “find yourself.”
Every once in awhile, it’s important we do a little self check-in. And there’s no better way to do so than by getting away from the hustle and bustle of everyday-life and immersing into a new culture full of exciting experiences and opportunities.
Whether it’s hiking in Nepal, running a marathon in Iceland, or eating and drinking your way through France, make time for a little self-care with a solo trip abroad.
There has never been a better time for solo travel.
Finally, we live in a day and age that is perfect for solo travel. Through technological advances like smartphones, apps, social media, ride shares, and more, wandering as a solo traveler has never been easier.
These days, wanderers feel safer while traveling, can do and see more sites, and meet more interesting people than ever before.
Why not give solo travel a try?
Take it from a habitual solo traveler, it can be downright fun to hit the open road alone. But if you just aren’t ready for a truly solo trip, consider a solo group trip.
