1.YOU OWN YOUR OWN TIME
The aim of solo travel is not getting away from all the people in your life. The goal is to own your own
time. Literally. Some of you might have possibly experienced travelling with companions who for one
reason or another keep on wasting your precious time.
As a lone-wolf wandering around you decide where to go, when, as well as who – if anyone – to go
with.
You get to wake up when you want, you taste the type of local specialities if and when you feel like it, the
way that you want and no one tries to persuade you to do the opposite.
You are the king or the queen with the final decision over every single moment of your journey. Nobody
steals your time, nobody changes your plans, nobody strikes activities in your schedule. The time is fully
yours.
2.NOBODY TELLS YOU WHAT TO DO
Everyone is familiar with this scenario: you’ve spent the entire previous day with planning and
scheduling every single castle, church, park, ruin, hill and tree you want to see.
Or the opposite, you’ve decided to be spontaneous and just go with the flow of your feelings. Everything
is perfect until the ‘other person’ comes and spoils it all by demanding to do things a different way.
When you travel alone, nobody tells you what to do and how your trips shall look like. Moreover,
nobody gets hurt and offended because nobody’s expectations endure.
The person you travel with influences your trip in such a tremendous way! The most important thing is
to understand that the influence is completely well-earned because he or she can also express opinions
on things and adjust the schedules and plans.
That is the deal of travelling with somebody – we are talking about finding a consensus. And you can be
dealing with bursts of both-sided happiness, but as well one-sided frustrations and dissatisfaction.
Unless of course, you get out on your own.
3.YOU EXPERIENCE YOUR OWN PURE FEELINGS
Why is travelling solo that important? Because you can finally experience your own pure feelings! When
you travel solo, you usually feel and experience more than because there are no distractions or setback
around.
