Solo travel has changed my mental health!
As far back as I can remember the idea of being alone scared me. From the basics of travelling to school, eating, relaxing etc. The thought of doing anything by myself was deemed as a failure, me failing at being social, me failing at having friends.
I first travelled solo at the age of 25 with a short 4 day visit to Berlin, a short 2 hour flight, only my second ever trip to another country I was apprehensive, nervous and was met with negative reinforcement “who are you going with? Oh alone?”
When I arrived in Berlin I felt free, every decision I had to make was mine and mine alone! No negotiation, no compromise, if I wanted to be somewhere at a certain time, I would be there at that time!!
Since then I have been to India for 4 weeks, Dublin, Rome, Poland, and now I am about to embark on a trip to south east Asia starting in Thailand from April 1st and I have no intention of looking back!!
Those of you who are scared to travel alone for whatever reason, know that since I have started travelling on my mindset about myself and my future has been improved tenfold!
Whatever will be will be, our futures not ours too see!!!
