Tips for Going as a Solo or an Independent Traveller

We all have bucket lists of PLACES we want to travel in our lifetime. But we hold ourselves back because we have no one to go with. Everyone has different schedules, budgets and travelling interest, so waiting for the right time and right person to join you is just a waste. So just start planning your trip and enjoy.

Travelling alone can seem to be scary from the comfort of home. For instance what if you get stranded somewhere? Can you go out at night alone? Won’t I feel weird eating alone in the restaurants? All these worries come into the solo travellers mind.

Experienced Gained While Travelling: 

Traveling alone gives you the chance to indulge yourself fully and also an amazing experience but it can also be demanding. Everything from your itinerary to how much fun you have is all up to you. Travelling alone has some weak points like one must be aware of the safety, loneliness and the dreaded single supplement. But if you are well prepared in your mind of going solo then you can save money and also go through the rough spots. One can rest whenever he or she wants.

Travelling solo gives you the opportunity to do what you want, and when you want. But see that you don’t fall into the comfort trap. Know your strength go at your own pace but challenge yourself, no matter if its talking to strangers or switching off that GPS for a day.

Travelling alone makes you a better observer of people and places around you. By being a Solo traveller it increases the curiosity about the surroundings and gives you a chance learn a lot rather being with a travel companion.

Beware Of Safety: 

Travelling solo can be both safe and rewarding but always be careful of safety concerns as you would be travelling in a group .Take care in large cities at night, watch your drinks, beware of any local scams and keep a close eye on your valuables.

Always be respectful no matter where you are going in the world, make sure you’re down with the local customs and dos and don’ts.

Having Knowledge Of Language Of A Place Your Are Going To Travel: 

Make an effort to learn few words and phrases before you go travelling. Learn how to introduce yourself, start a basic conversation and learn numbers from 1 to 10. This is how you will be able to interact with the people around you.

Being alone also make you remove some time to reflect on your travels. If you want to spend some time in the afternoon for photographing, you can do it. You are the boss yourself.

In fact there’s so much you can do when you travel alone and then you’ll wonder how you managed to travel with someone else in the past.

THE FREEDOM GIVES YOU TO LIVE LIFE AND TRAVEL WHEN, WHERE AND HOW ONE WANTS.
