First time traveling alone - looking for general recommendations on where to go and how to cope with being alone.
Hello everyone!
First, this sub has really inspired me to take the step to travel alone. Previously ive only travelled with family, friends or girlfriends. I suddenly got a job opportunity in another city, which means i have 1 month off between jobs. I intend to spend 18 days or 3 weeks of this month travelling, but none of my friends are available.
So, this started a thought process about actually traveling alone. There are a couple of things around traveling alone that scares me:
- I honestly hate being alone and in my own company. In other words, i fear that i will feel alone on the other side of the world.
- I have no one to share exciting and precious memories from the travels with.
- I do think it would be healthy for me to travel alone, and actually get used to being in my own company. Call it a self-realization trip?
I’ve thought about traveling to:
- Sri Lanka - cheap. beautiful and exciting place. Heard that there is a lot of couple travellers, i fear that i won’t meet any other solo travellers.
- Thailand - seems like a beautiful country, although i am not that into partying "hard". I Will probably meet other solo travelers here though
- Cambodia - seems like an awesome place to visit - but dunno if 2-3 weeks is enough.
- Vietnam - i love food from Vietnam and I’ve heard a lot of good about the population.
- Myanmar - seems like an exciting and totally different destination.
Does anyone have any recommendations on which country i should visit and some general tips about "feeling lonely" while travelling solo?
