Am I crazy?
So I’m 18, fresh out of high school and going to college in late September. My two best friends are leaving for college in late August, leaving me with a month to.... twiddle my thumbs? I’m young and naïve and probably a little dumb and I have this itch to travel that has been bothering me for a while. So my plan is to leave (from Washington state) and take a 2-3 week road trip alone around the country mostly camping and seeing whatever I can. I would either travel down the west coast (though I’ve already seen it before) or through the Midwest.
I really want to do it, but it scares the hell out of me, and that kinda makes me think I should do it. I’m totally a dreamer though so sometimes I can’t tell if things are realistic. I’ve camped a little bit before but not much. I don’t know much about cars. I’ve only really gone on roadtrips with my family. I feel like I don’t know much about the world, especially with adult things. I’m introverted and enjoy my own company. I’m pretty suspicious of other people but I’m also not very situationally aware. I’m a trans guy, and this makes me a little concerned for my safety if I’m doing this alone. I’m pretty tall though and pass okay and people tend not to fuck with me.
I guess I’m just wondering if this is something I should wait on doing when I’m a little bit older? If I SHOULD do it then what kind of advice can you give me? Hope this is the right place to ask.
