Have *you* ever *travelled solo* before? 😁 Where did you go? And what are your favourite solo travel tips?

I’m 25 and I’ve been going through a very difficult year. I’ve been realizing I can’t count on others to make my dreams come true. Time to take the leap

I checked the stats and i was SHOCKED . . . 84% of SOLO travelers and FEMALE!!! I used to be affaid of solo travel too but then i started step by step and the feeling of absolute FREEDOM is freaking addictive . . . Now i'm an online 'advocate' of solo travel . . .

Once you go solo, the idea of having to plan a trip with someone else seems annoying. I absolutely love this. I solo travel all the time (over 30 countries and counting). The best places to go to meet people are hostels and events. Always google the latest scams in the area (especially on transportation). I went a trip by myself to Strasbourg, France on Saturday and it filled my energy cup. I got to cafe-sit, people-watch, eat churros and take in the scenery without distraction. I have a fiance whom I adore and long to be close to and fully supports my trips alone and we enjoy trips together. Solo travel is normal for a lot of people. Don't be discouraged by the naysayers. xxSafe Travelsx

Favorite part of solo travel for me is the flexibility to be spontaneous and basically calling the shots on what I want to do, when I want to do it and not having the frustration of waiting on a travel mate and making sure they are happy because that stresses me out! I
First (sort of) solo trip was when I was 53 - I studied abroad in Florence Italy for 3 weeks, but extended a trip and did some solo time. Second ti, e I was 59 same as before but the solo time was 2 weeks in Florence and Tuscany. I felt safe. The only time I got nervous was one night I walked by myself to my apartment at night (10ish) and it was dark. Streets where empty and I realized perhaps this was not the smartest move. I got home safely but made sure I was in shortly before dark after that. I’m not a big nightlife person so that worked. Embarking on a solo trip to the UK in June 2022 and feel confident about going!

I've wanted to travel for a very long time, but certain people told me that it isn't safe to travel alone as a woman. I don't have friends, or anyone who will travel with me, but I don't want to lose hope. When all this mess with Covid ends I want to backpack through Europe before I head back to college.

i am 22 and about to graduate college and i've decided to sell all my unnecessary assets and spend the first few months of 2021 traveling around europe :')

One thing I do as a solo traveler is at night I walk near other women, grandmas, moms with children, etc. Not creepily close, just enough that it might make someone think twice before wanting to hurt me because I’m in such close proximity to someone else. Also I always carry the card of the hotel or hostel or whatever place I’m staying at on my person in case I get lost and need to just grab a taxi. Also if I feel unsafe I grab my phone and pretend I’m telling someone I’m on my way and I’m telling them exactly where I am (again it’s just to make it less appealing to mug me, kidnap me). And my last advice is I always have my hand over my valuables, just hovering over it gently nothing crazy, if I leave stuff in my room I try to hide it.

Oh! And fold your clothes by rolling them instead of folding into squares, huge space saver and doesn’t wrinkle your clothes!

Happy Traveling!

This has been so helpful for planning my 2021 solo travels🌸

[Tashas_Travels]

The bag is so damn expensive goodness gracious. I want to start solo traveling as well. Covid made me know that life is too short to keep procrastinating.

[tinytaniatravels]

I've decided to start travelling solo next year, I'll be 31, I've thought about travelling for years but have always been to scared to go it alone! Thanks for the tips I'll definitely be using some of them when I plan my travels!

[irisstarr]

Just starting solo travel at 63 after divorce from a 30 year marriage. Nervous and excited! Good tips, thank you. 😊

[rushikanadeeshani]

Thank you! You pointed out things in a very positive way. ❤

[vickykanana]

I am from East Africa and doing my first solo trip to some countries in Schengen next summer. Watching this helped me alot. Thank you

Graduating from university this December and decided to spend a month abroad in New Zealand SOLO to celebrate – couldn’t be more thrilled, but this video was so helpful to calm some nerves!!

[Lisa-kzvw]

I've always wanted to do this but have been to afraid to travel alone internationally, but I have been watching a bunch of vlogs about traveling as a female alone and I'm convinced I can do it. I can't wait for all this covid hype to calm down and we can return to our normal routines and life. I feel I really will enjoy myself if I set out alone exploring things alone because I know what I like and a lot of times when you travel with people there can be conflicts of interest and it kills the experience I really am looking forward to it.

I just finished my degree and decided that next year I will start travelling solo for a year or so... I am so scared and excited about the idea, but after all this covid situation I really need an adventure like this one 🤗 love from Ireland!

[peggybaggenstoss]

In my 20-40’s I traveled the USA as a trucker. Since then I’ve traveled by car and plane all over the USA. I’ve traveled internationally with organized groups and with friends and self made itineraries. Thanks for sharing your tips.

[BhundHogaya]

It’s my first ever time I’m going solo and I was doing my research ofc.! And your video is really helpfull

[kellieleah]

Love this. My first solo international trip was to Dublin, Ireland. I did two day tours and a food tour. It was so amazing. I'm typically an introvert so doing things alone is fitting for me however when I go to Spain this fall I do want to be a part of an expat group or something.
