Will you travel on your own?

I love traveling alone. I do all or most of the time and I have a mostly wonderful time. It is an adventure. I meet people fairly easily. A lot of people travel alone. There are single groups to advise you and there are trips to go on for singles. Do a search of single travel. All kinds of travel groups for singles exist. If you want to come to The United States, AARP has a conference every year that is open to the international community. This September, it will be in New Orleans. AARP is short for American Association of Retired Persons but you do not need to be American nor retired to join or come. You do have to be over 50. If interested go to the AARP website. One year, over 60 persons from outside The United States came and AARP noted an International dinner just for them. Last year, I had a very nice discussion with an attendee from Canada who was having the time of her life.

Where do you enjoy traveling to? I would go and travel by myself, but I would take precautions in case of any potential danger. A phone, a flashlight, and pepper spray maybe. Well, I wouldn't bring pepper spray, but that's simply because I figure I'd end up spraying myself!

I have a friend who is 19 years old and for the last year he's been traveling on his own. He's traveled all across the Europe and Asia. He only had 100 euros with him when he went of. He travels by hitchhiking and tries to avoid sleeping in hotels or motels. He has a sleeping bag with him and the weather is quite nice so he doesn't have to spend much money. He meets a lot of people so sometimes they let him stay at their place for a day or two and when he's out of money, he finds a temporary job and he works a week and then he continues. That's how I met him actually. It's pretty amazing. I wish I'd have a guts to travel like that.

It depends on where you are going. If you are going somewhere you have been before, it would be fine to go alone. If it is somewhere new, you would probably regretnot having someone to share it with. Some people can make friends anywhere they go, so even though they are alone, their not. These new friends could come in handy if anything were to go wrong. I am not like that, but being shy, I would enjoy just getting away by myself.

I did travel alone before in my country and abroad also and i love it. I think we should adventure to do travel alone sometime, we can discover ourselves better. Trust me, we are worried a bit in the beginning time only, after that you are so surprised with what you did. Just do it and be confident with yourself.

of course i will. If i have money and time, i travel. And if my friends can't come with me, i'll go myself. I just have to find new friends in the place I am going. Just have to keep wearing that friendly smile.

hi! if you need some quiet time to reflect, traveling alone can be nice. it can give you peace of mind and tranquility. alone need not be lonely. however if you need cheering up, a friend as a companion can be nice too. if traveling locally, you can join tour groups. if international travel, it's nice to have somebody with you. if it were me, it highly depends on where i'm going and for what reason. i'd rather be with somebody while on travel or vacation. i'd rather have someone experience the travel with me, see the same things i see, food trip etc. it's more fun that way. plus there's someone i can chat with too. but do your own thing, whatever's comfortable for you. just plan ahead and always be on the safe side if you'll go alone.

When I was a young person I traveled on my own and had a very happy time. It was cheap because I only needed one ticket and not the three I need now I have my kids. I loved traveling alone because I could do what ever I liked to. I was able to stay in accommodation of my own choice. I was able to stay in youth hostel dorms and backpacker dorms. I found these places friendly with other backpackers. I made friends with many of the other travelers that I met. I liked to get a sleeping space in a 6 bedded carriage on an overnight train. I did my inter rail alone around Europe when I was 18 years old. You don't need a companion to go off traveling. You will be fine on your own and you will have a fantastic time.

I don't think that I would be able to travel anywhere alone unless the country that I was going to spoke my language. I find it far too stressful to be in a place where I do not know what anybody is saying, and I just know that I wouldn't be able to go for this reason. However, I have been to the USA before, and I do think that I would be able to go there alone. The only thing that I would be wary about would be finding the place where I would be staying, as I wouldn't like to go to the wrong place, but once I had done that I think that I would be fine and would be able to enjoy the rest of my trip.

Good day Madona1, Honestly, if things are that simple, I will just say, I will go with your travel itinerary. As I do also love to travel. And same as you are, almost all of my closest friends are already married and tied up with their own family. And apparently, I was left alone being single although I am engage but not yet married. And so, there are times, that I really traveling alone. Though I have a bestfriend which remain single, but her schedule is so tied up, hence, we can't meet at the middle. Hence, if I am free, her schedule is fully booked and vice versa. What to do, so I am just doing the travel on my own.

Personally i think i will travel to places that i am familiar and places i know the environment and know where to go , i guess i am the person who don like the unknown and unprepared journey.If i go alone , i guess i will pre plan to destination and where to go for hotel , food and such , so there will be no surprices.If can i don prefer to travel at all.

do your own things ,Don't care about the view of others

sorry man,but if you are looking for a frank answer from me my answer would be no,we travel from one place to another for fun but without friends travelling alone isn't much of a fun for me

If you ask me, I would love to travel by myself if I am single. :-) I traveled alone couple time and it was adventure.

I am 59 and coming to an age that if I am going to travel I better get started LOL I like cruising because you are taken care of. If you do an excursion you are in good hands too. I have finally got my husband to do a cruise a year with me. We are passing this year to do Alaska either May or September. Not sure yet I want to go when its the warmest and least amount of kids. If my husband does not go, I would pay double to go myself. I have raised 5 children and done a lot with them. Traveling to me is such a pleasure. Cruising is even better I get attention at every turn. I have went on several trips on my own. I guess I am not afraid so I do day trips and sometimes 2 to 3 day trips depending on where I am going. Travel and enjoy that you can do whatever you want. I envy you. I want to get a travel trailer and travel. Hubby does not. Unfortunately for me him and I are extreme opposits. He does not see or get excited to see things like I do. He is happy to see his next meal and then he can sleep LOL. Doesn't make for good traveling partner. Good Luck have fun and enjoy that you are fortunate to be able to travel.

To be honest, in the country I would, for some days. But I wouldn't dare to go abroad completely alone... I mean, what if something happens with me, the locals might not even understand me, the different customs could cause problems, too, if I'm alone etc. And I would try to persuade a friend of mine to come with me for 1-2 days (I mean, I understand they can't come for weeks, but for a weekend or so, even the best mother or father can leave their families, if the kids aren't too little, at least in my opinion).
