    I'm so glad i came across your channel before my solo travel in europe this Sept, and Dolomite is def part of my itinerary. I've been solo travelling since forever but this coming euro plan scares me a little bit. But after watching your videos, i'm excited again. And you are right, there's something liberating with traveling alone and getting to do things that you actually wanna do and not having to wait for others. Love from 🇵🇭

    This looked amazing, well done! And I can totally relate to you excitement; I also went on a solo hiking trip by myself last weekend for the first time and slept overnight in a hut. The hiking by myself was amazing, however I felt a bit lonely the evening in the hut surrounded by couples and friend groups. I just ended up going to bed early listening to podcasts.

I have just done solo traveling in England this summer, and I adored it ! If anyone has been thinking about it, just do it !!!

    I'm so surprised this is only your second time solo traveling! You seem so independent, I expected you to do it all the time. But I guess you're also a superrrrr social person so it also makes sense you'd want to travel with other people. I love love love solo traveling, I go all the time. It's gotta be one of, if not my favourite, way to travel. Thanks so much for sharing!!
