Solo travel isn't for everyone. But ask people who've done it and they'll often tell you it changed the way they travel forever. 

### Self-Discovery

It’s easier to figure out what you like when you’re not stuck in a group project. Without someone else’s routines steering the trip, you get space to think and see what you’re really interested in.

### Freedom

The itinerary is all yours. Stay longer, leave early, change your mind or spend three hours doing something uniquely you. You don’t have to negotiate schedules or budgets, so the trip is everything you’d choose for yourself.

### Confidence

Figuring out new transit, making decisions, and dealing with the thing that inevitably goes wrong is proof you can handle more than you thought. Confidence doesn’t come from a perfect trip. It comes from doing the thing, and knowing you’ll be fine when it isn’t.

### Solo Travel Can Be More Social, Not Less

Solo travel sounds less social, but it doesn’t have to be. Without a travel buddy, you end up talking to locals, chatting with strangers, and making connections you’d probably miss in a group.
