Howdy, amigos! I hope you're well and enjoying a sunny, energetic Summer ☀️ Today, I wanna chat to you all about solo travel and why it's simply fucking fantastic. Travelling solo is an incredible adventure, but it can also be intimidating. The freedom, the self-discovery, the endless possibilities—it's all within your reach. But you need to be prepared. I've collected all the best solo travel tips from a group of people who have been doing it for far too long now. Me and my team have close to 100 years of collective travel experience between us.

All I know is that no matter your situation, we've probably been in your shoes at some point. Everyone has something to learn in this world. Ourselves included. So check this out...
