Travelling On your own

I have travelled solo A LOT. It has it's pros and it's cons. As a girl it made me nervous because I worried over getting hurt or whatnot. Also, after I had done the days activites and was in the hotel at night in the wee hours it was boring. I'd sit and watch TV flicking channels thinking, I could be doing this at home.... sigh... Also, it's funner to have someone to share the experience with, to laugh with go out to lunch with etc... BUT it was good because then I could see and do exactly what I wanted when and how I wanted without having to go and see things or do things that someone else wanted that I might not be interested in. Also travelling with someone is more cost effective in the long run. I've come to realize that. LOL funny how you are travelling this year. So am I. Where are you going. I have yet to decide on my destination.

www.solotravel.org/solo-travel-books.htm I am an avid solo traveller. I have done it for years and years but now that I getting a little older I find it a bit cumbersome some time. Two years ago I travelled to Barcelona Spain. I was to meet up with a friend who lives there. As it happens he got sick and I only saw him the day I arrived and the day I left, but I had a nice hotel room with air conditioning. It was a bit hard to arrange all my sightseeing and I constantly seemed to order food that I did not like. In 2007 I travelled to Malta and I had a marvellous time. I arranged for some tours in Malta and Sicily. I met so many interesting people on these bus tours. Germans, Finns, Norwegians to sit with and chat with, but at the end of the day I got dropped off at my hotel, could put up my feet in my room, eat in the dining room and go for a stroll along the promenade. The trouble with solo travel is that you have to pay so much in some places for the single supplement, but I will do it as long as I can afford it. If you are doing this for the first time I would recommend I would recommend you read up on solo travel. I gave you a website listed above. Good luck and may you have many adventures, but always be extremely careful because you are more vulnerable.

I haven't tried travelling alone, I guess I won't feel the fun of it. Why don't you try going to friendly places, like Philippines, Thailand, Hongkong or on some parts of Asia. I've seen more tourists go there, since it's easy to communicate at and they offer less expensive packages compared to places from Europe and other parts of the Americas.

well first of all happy new year to you.its good to hear that you are now mentally prepared to come out of your depression finally.well its good you wanna travel alone.well i was in my college days even i used to travel alone a lot.i discovered a lot and also had many good and bad experiences.this year mid ,my partner and me went to a tourist place in our country for which the travel agent was charging too much.we decided to go by ourself and to tell you we really enjoyed a lot and also we did the whole tour in less than our approved budget.

I love travelling on my own! I backpacked thru Europe in college and think it was the most libersting thing I have ever done. I pushed the limits of understanding myself and the cultures I visited. I made a few friends in each place and learned to listen to my instincts. I really do not think it matters where you go. Just open your mind and be ready for an adventure! If it makes you feel safer, travel with a group. Lots of churches and universities plan trips throughout the year.

travel out of a vacation is a good choice,it can relax and forget same unhappything,to a better mood to face to the future life!

I went on a three week bus tour on my own some years ago, and to be honest I think I had the best time of everyone, most people were teamed up, couples and friends and over the three weeks a few of the twosomes had arguments and on several occasions I asked if the spare bed in my room could be used, in various towns we had options to what we wanted to do, i did what I wanted and didn't have to compromise with anyone, I had a great time, I hope you do too...
