Wow this stuff are really great. Im a female myself and i can say i feel comfortable being alone on my own city, however i have never tried travelling alone. Things that are written here not only encouraged me but also made me look forward on travelling alone.

traveling alone is fulfilling, freedom, opening ur soul to a lot of other things w/c u did not consider when with a group of friends or relatives.

we have a close-knit family and we enjoy traveling together. but sometimes i don’t enjoy it because they go to places i don’t want to go. so i have always wanted to try to travel ALONE.

as i searched here in the ‘net, Batanes is always the suggested place (i don’t know why). actually i’m planning to go up North, say, Sagada or Vigan/La Union.

since you’ve long been traveling on your own, any suggestions or tips for first time solo female traveler like me? thank you.

hi. i found this site while searching for places i can visit next year, and i’m glad for the encouragement in the article. i haven’t traveled much in the past… only started just this year, and with friends.

i want to try traveling alone next year, but i’m not sure which place i should start with (one that will best suit a first-time female traveler like me). can you recommend any place? my planned travel would be around february or march… and then around october or november.

will appreciate any help and tips. thanks

Totally agree! I love seeing new countries and learning about them. I find traveling solo extremely liberating and much less constrained. I’m free to decide where I want to go, what I want to see, and what activities I want to do. I currently live in Canada and have traveled to 20 countries so far. The Philipines is next on my itinerary!

That’s the reward you got from traveling alone. I’m happy to hear that you enjoy it. However, don’t think it’s hard to ask help if you are alone? I mean two heads are better than one. Why be alone if you can have someone to be with you.

Hi!I’m inspired with your thoughts about travelling alone. I plan to go to Baguio next weekend. I liked your itinerary, I know it could be useful for my trip.

Thanks for your sharing your insight.

I’ve been planning to go to Cambodia alone over the 4th of July holidays, to be honest, not because i’d prefer it that way, but because i couldn’t drag anyone with me. I’m glad i read your posts – they made me feel that this is actually a much better choice. This is my first time out of the country so i had to take a tour package, but maybe next time i’d be brave enough to backpack through Asia alone.

I guess the only problem is, who’s supposed to take my picture standing on top of the angkor wat towers??? hehe

Solo traveling is a conversation between you and the destination. I’m planning a trip on my own to Banaue-Batad-Bontoc-Sagada… My other chronicles, as seen through experimental analog photography, can be found at my travel lomoblog: http://eazytraveler.blogspot.com Cheers!
