Travelling alone can be a daunting thought for some. Before my first solo trip I’d never imagine I’d be hopping on a plane all by myself. However, times and circumstances change. I wanted to see some of the world and I wasn’t going to let having unavailable friends stop me from doing that. Travelling alone as a woman has got a bad rep with people always concerned about your safety. All I will say is, have your wits about you at all times and trust your gut. If something doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t.
