How Was Your First Time Travelling Solo (alien.top)

When was it the first time you have ever traveled alone and how did you felt? Did it exceed your expectations? I have been contemplating doing a solo trip but never really had the guts to do it. I have mildly severe social anxiety and I think that's preventing me from really doing it. Thanks

You get to see exactly what you want to see for exactly as long as you want to see it.

One thing that helped me a lot when I first started traveling alone was writing a comforting letter to myself in my journal—it sounds silly, but reading “you’re going to be nervous and feel like this is the wrong choice when you get on the plane, but you’ll feel better when you get there and you’ll have a good time” actually helped a lot.
