I admire people who do this. hope one day I will have the courage to travel on my own too

I haven’t traveled all that much even with others. So I would be intimidated to do so alone, especially in a foreign country. I admire those adventurous souls who can!

For me, your journey will be enjoyable if you have your own travel buddy than travelling alone by yourself most especially in a foreign country. That’s so scary! Imagine you will go out from your comfort zone and going to a foreign land which is very unknown to you? You don’t know the people and the things which store for you there. What if someone kill you! You can never escape and ask for help. We will never know! You have to be vigilant everytime. But if you’re have lots of guts and motivation travelling alone, you can do it as a part of your own journey! All you have to do is pray that God will guide you and protect you from any unexpected morbid things that will happened as you ahead in your self discovery and adventures.

If travelling in foreign countries particularly in the famous destination, you can do it but of course it would always be better if you have company. But when traveling in mountainous areas or going to hiking or unexplored paces, it is a must.

Base on my experience, I prefer to travel with someone like a friend or relative.It is because when I first traveled alone to North China to teach there, I felt so afraid because I was told that Chang Chun China is near Xiamen only to learn that it cost 6 hours to reach there. there were many places I traveled alone like Seoul, Korea, Thailand, Malaysia, Brunei, twice, China thrice, Australia and New Zealand 6 times.I envied those who traveled with someone.

I am on my way to a trip to Hangzhou China and I’m going by myself. I’ve traveled by myself before, twice actually. The two times before, I went on a trip to Jamaica to visit family but this upcoming trip is something that I have never done before. Not sure how I feel about it now but I was hoping to get one other person to come with me but I guess that is not the case since everyone either doesn’t have the money or cant do it before they are afraid of the language barrier. I think its all up to you how you want to travel, best bet is just to be careful doing it. 🙂

I think it depends on where you’re going? But it could be best if you brought someone along, like a travelling buddy. After all, a lone thief would think twice before mugging a group of people or a pair of travelers even if they were both females.

First you need to overcome your fears by travelling to a foreign country alone and explore only then will you be able to be free with yourself. Travelling alone is a good thing but again it depends what are you going for is it for adventure or work or just for some quiet time. You have to consider all this things before you take one journey.for adventure I would recommend you take someone fun to go with and that will definitely cost you because you don’t expect someone to accompany you one journey that you proposed. But if it’s work related this one you can do it alone while you enjoy the benefits that come with it. This is the best because you will definitely have a guide who will take you around and at some point you may just decide to do it all alone at some point and that will be a wonderful thing. So take a journey on your own to a foreign place and walk around do stuff on your own discover new things and your fears will disappear good luck

Travelling is always a good and nice experience. We call such lonely travelers as ‘Indie Traveler’ in Tourism.

If you want to know about people you should travel and if you want to know about yourself you should travel alone.

There are many places and countries in the world. Everyone will have the desire to visit and see as many places as one can in life. But there are only some who can make it a success.

Some people do have money but they can not do it for fear of their own personality.

There are many who do not have money but have a good personality to move freely with others and go ahead with the chosen destination fearless.

It is for the latter there are many websites that have come into existence. They encourage these travelers to take up tours as per the instructions stipulated by them and send the details of the journey along with recordings. They will pay for the entire tour. There are many people who are taking up such tours. There are even young ladies who are taking up such tours and finishing even the world tour also. One should read their articles and their experience and advises and have a clear plan about the places of visit. It is always good to have a collection of all the articles of such travelers.

As far as my personal experience is concerned I had one such a lady from Indonesia. It was really unexpected that she had seen my article on SABARIMALA TOUR. She contacted me via my email. We exchanged views on many things and about many places.

One fine morning I replied to her email in BAHASA . The reply came immediately. She was immensely pleased. Our friendship continued. One fine day she came to CHENNAI as per her schedule tour. I received her going all the way from Hyderabad. We felt very happy. She trusted me. She trusted my friendship. She spent 12 days in India. She visited BALAJI TEMPLE in Tirumala also. She also accompanied me to see Sabarimala. She could come up to NEMELIKAL. From there the ladies are not allowed. She stayed in a nearby lodge and waited for my return. She knew about many things and noted everything in her Diary. We spend time very nicely.

What I want to say is to have some trust. Choose the best of your friends for a tour if your are a lady and want to travel alone.

There are certain countries in the world where a lady can not and should not travel alone.

Traveling is a good fun always but traveling alone in my openion is not good.I think traveling with friends is a much better.because if we travel friends we can have wounderful time togather.I alwasy travel around when i am free but i always have someone with me.

Travelling to me is very good. It gives me chances to stay in a car and look out to views of many structures on the road for long period of time. When I was in secondary school I would want my school to close as soon as possible to enable me travel a long journey back home. But most time it pisses me off especially when am travelling alone.
Most time when I enter a car for a long journey, I like to talk to my next neighbour so as to cure boredom thereby reducing my chances of sleeping.
I really don’t like travelling alone but I always travel alone. That makes me always talk to my next neighbor. I always generate discussions with them and I make sure this topics goes for about 4 hours thereby covering my journey hours. The only chance I have never had is travelling by plane but I hope one day I will travel by plane and also by ship.
When i stay in a car during a journey and my next neighbor doesn’t look like a talking type, I will sleep throughout the journey and will never know what happened all throughout the journey therefore not enjoying the journey. But I like your post, maybe I will give travelling with a friend a chance even if my parents doesn’t accept it.

i love to travel with my loved once and i love traveling with my family.Because its so much of fun when you are traveling with family or friends. You enjoy very moment of your traveling.I mostly travel with friends around .

Yes, travelling alone is dangerous because if you fall ill who take care of you the first and foremost problem of travelling alone. According to human nature man needs man to talk or exchange ides a lone person cannot do this. Travelling alone in foreign countries is full of dangers that everything will be unknown to you the peoples and places, things and hotels…but therefore it is must for the travelers to take one fellow traveler with him to pass time and exchange views on different natural beauties and scenes.

I haven’t travelled alone yet but lately been thinking about it. I really want to so see tehe world wonders but don’t really have anybody who is interested. So I decided that next year i’m travelling alone to Peru. To be honest still a bit afraid of travelling alone and hope it is not lonely. But on the other hand quite excisted for the adventure. Also i’m a guy so i’ll have less problems with horny/touchy people.

Travel alone is not a problem for everyone if someone is health and active, mentally spiritually and physically. I think none is alone on earth because in everyone’s mind there are memorable memories that keep the travelers fresh while travelling.

If you are sad you cannot enjoy raveling alone or with friends. Traveling rests om happy mood neither on loneliness nor on friends. I always travel alone when I am happy sometimes to see my friend in fa off city or within city and enjoy traveling.

Traveling alone may be hazardous or dangerous especially for a woman. Her life would be in peril if she goes to a place where notorious people are so many. Or to a place where a woman who is unescorted or no companion to travel alone would be likely victimized by a swindler, by a criminal or whatever.

I think it is better to go with the group just a sponsored travel which is participated in by many people who are too curious to visit a place as a tourist. Besides it is safer, it is also very economical. Anyway in case, she would be lost and she managed herself to travel alone until it gets into the embassy of her country, she would bring along with her map, communication gadget like the cell phone, and everything to make herself secure. It is very difficult to defend yourself in case you might be passing a checkpoint and worse if you don’t know their language. You are just like traveling on a totally unknown place.
