 In order to solo travel, you need to be equipped with the knowledge of how to be alone. It’s hard to be alone if you don’t know who you are or what your intention is for traveling. Self-discovery and reflection not only make solo traveling more enjoyable, but they make for a more meaningful experience overall. This episode offers essential journal prompts/reflection questions to contemplate before solo traveling.
