@jettingaround @CharlesMcCool A2 Short trips to visit family
or childhood friends, are fun
by yourself. #JAChat

replying to @Claudioula @Claudioula @suitcasenall A4 Nothing too different than regular #travel really. Stay aware and have someone you can touch base with every few days. For solo #hiking I carry a whistle, though I forgot it on this hike. #JAchat
A3: My first #solotrip in a while was to #Germany last year. It was great to explore the #christmasmarkets, shops and little mountain inns of #Thuringia at my own pace. I was working and could meet up with friends, so it was the best of both worlds. #JAChat
A5 I do not get lonely during solo #travel because I am with my favorite person. #JAChat
A5 #JAchat I embrace the local way of life. In Stellenbosch, I realized locals sit for a glass of wine as early as 5:00 pm so I did the same. A minute later, the owner of the wine shop was talking to me!
A5. If I’m ever lonely when I travel solo, which is pretty rare, I find something to do or see (or eat!) that I really love. Usually looking at some art will do the trick! #JAchat #solotravel

@jettingaround @suitcasenall A5. I try to stay in hotels with bars - usually somebody there to chat with. In Paris last April, I stayed above the bar.

replying to @jettingaround @jettingaround @suitcasenall A5. I take a 'buddy' with me! For my study abroad, I took my stuffed panda and dressed her in my boyfriend's shirt for company. Our dorm cleaning ladies once tucked in my panda with my roommate (a local student)'s doll and it was so cute! #JAchat #solotravel
replying to @CharlesMcCool @CharlesMcCool @suitcasenall A4 For safety, I walk in well-lit areas at night and carry my cellphone. Going out to a restaurant or bar on your own gives you a chance to make new friends #JAChat
