Solo travel adventures
PTTravel
A6 #PTTravel Start small, take a trip for 2 or 3 days to see if you like it. Build on that take a longer trip & farther away. Then try an overseas trip. That's what I did. You develop your travel skills along the way.
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A6. It’s not as daunting as you think. Learn how to use public transportation, use navigation apps on your phone, pack light, exercise the same precaution you do at home. Solo travel is super liberating and fun. #pttravel
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie To Mexico to do volunteer work with sea turtles and an open return to Houston.........Now I think it was brave, then it was just exciting! :) #pttravel
replying to @morethanldn @morethanldn @Franglais27 A book is good is you're not feeling talkative. People watching is fun #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A6 for English speakers I always recommend an English speaking country just bc it's one less thing to worry about. Start slow. Maybe even take a long weekend alone first to see how you like it. Don't try to do to much #PTTravel
replying to @HHLifestyleTrav @HHLifestyleTrav @kate_frankie #PTTravel A6 Solo travel gives you a lot of freedom.
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie I agree! It's ridiculous when there's such a large solo traveller market now and not everyone is going to feel comfortable sharing a room with a stranger to reduce costs! #PTTravel
A6 #PTTravel Don't let the fact you're 'half a couple' stop you. Even if you don't take separate trips, maybe separate excursions or side trips. Unless, of course, ALL your interests are common ones?
replying to @StromfieldAdvs @StromfieldAdvs @kate_frankie @lonelyplanet I still have mine! It's the Western Europe edition that had the misspell on the label - "Westen Europe" ;-) #pttravel
A2. Nothing too scary - I chose Norway because it's a pretty safe country, and I wanted somewhere I could feel comfortable. Travelling alone felt like such an adventure though. #PTTravel

A6 Think about your boundaries and what you need as must-haves. Don't push yourself too far out of your comfort zone the first time. Build it up.
Lower your expectations a bit and try to go with the flow.
Get insurance! Be careful like at home and tell someone your plan

A6- If you wait on other people to go somewhere, there's a good chance you'll never go #pttravel #travelingsession #SundayThoughts
A4. I enjoy my own company, so don't mind taking a book to a cafe or bar. I've got so much better at talking to strangers, though I'm not that confident in my foreign language skills #PTTravel
A6 Do it! It is challenging but you can get a huge amount of self confidence and self esteem from only being dependent on yourself - you also get to see cool stuff #winning #pttravel
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie #pttravel I put it to them that, if I've paid extra for a single room, then I should have a separate table in the dining room, and not put up with the batty old lady and her sulky grand-daughter that they stuck me with.
