Rules To Travel Solo!
5 Rules How To Travel Solo
1. Do your research first. Find out the customs and rules of where you are going. What is expectable attire and language? Also see if there are area that are dangerous or not safe to travel alone as a female.
4. It’s ok to talk to strangers and ask people to travel with you. Traveling solo doesn’t mean you have to be alone all the time. Traveling solo is the best way to make friends.
5. Don’t leave your bags. Also don’t a strangers bag or let them hold yours. That may seem like a common sense, but there are times where all you want to do is ditch your bag all together just to go to the bathroom.
2. Always book a place to stay at least for the first. I can’t tell you how many times the travel took a lot longer than expected and when I arrived I had no internet, it was dark and I was super tried. It is frustrating and uncomfortable. With that being said there are exceptions to this rule. For example in Indonesia when I moved from one island to another there were times I wanted to walk around to choice a place to stay before I would book online.
3. Be smart! Don’t share too much of your travel details in full to anyone. It is ok to lie. If you are solo don’t let people know. I would always say my friend is meeting me later or went back to the room because they forgot something. Yes, you meet a lot of people and can make friends, it is ok to relax a little.
