replying to @SonjaSwissLife @SonjaSwissLife @NordicExp A5. You are away from home. Nobody knows you. You can be anybody you want to be.

A5 Block out the negative/fearful comments from friends and family who have never travelled solo, and get on that plane (boat/bicycle/car) #TTOT https://t.co/UeD9uevNpT

A5. Don't be scared. There are lots of people in the same boat. And be prepared to meet lots of people (being alone makes you so much more approachable - to locals too). Take the plunge - and be rewarded with a totally unique life experience. #TTOT

A5: DON'T hang out with others from your home country as you travel! In Florence I met Uni students from America & EVERY ONE was hanging with other Yanks. None had befriended "new" nationalities or cultures! Ugh! #TTOT

A5 Advice to a first time solo traveller: Research the place to be knowledgeable. Believe in yourself, show confidence, be vigilant, open your mind & your heart & listen to your instincts. #TTOT Image: @pixabay

A5. If you find yourself confused and/or lost don't be proud, let it show that you are confused and/ or lost - somebody will be happy to help you - like you would be happy to help a stranger in your town/country #ttot

replying to @todayInIreland @todayInIreland A5 I've hung out with a countryman/woman before - they were the only ones who wanted to do what I was doing - cycling in Ireland, walking in France or going to the bus stop and exploring a remote village. Never more than a day though :) #TTOT

replying to @wheresshellyii @wheresshellyii @NordicExp A5 You are TOTALLY in charge of your trip.

Want a beach day?

DONE!

Want to sit and stare at your absolutely favorite painting for hours?

TOTALLY!

Want to shop till you drop?

Buy a small stool so you can take a break!

The world is yours for the taking #Enjoy #TTOT

replying to @wheresshellyii @wheresshellyii @NordicExp A5: Do as much research as possible. Trust your gut. #TTOT

A5 Yes. This is a trap too easy to fall into. One has to make an effort sometimes to benefit from the opportunity of mixing in with the local culture. #TTOT https://t.co/8hr8BWZx7C

A5 Don't feel like dinner, or only want cheese and crackers? DO IT. Want to stay another day and skip planned activities? NO WORRIES! #TTOT https://t.co/zvcIbVD0AC

Do research, read the books, learn about the various scams you might encounter. This really saved me in China. A5 #ttot

A5 Very good advice. Don't listen to everyone. Just get on the plane if that's what you want to do. #TTOT https://t.co/neYLP8IZDL
