I have been traveling for more than four years now. I have learned a lot about myself, about the world, about others, about organization and letting go... I told myself that it was more than a right, but a duty to share with those who wanted to embark on the same kind of adventure as me. You will find more advice in my book :"It's today or never!”

Traveling solo can seem intimidating to some, but it can also be an extremely rewarding experience. For me, it was the best decision of my life.

For a successful trip, there are several things to consider! If you are planning to travel solo, here are some tips:

Look for your destination Before you leave, it is important to research your destination. Learn as much as you can about the local culture, customs, language and laws to avoid missteps and misunderstandings. It is true that in some places traveling solo is not as fun or enjoyable. If this is your first trip, you might as well choose a destination that is a favorite of solo travelers: Vietnam - Thailand - Laos - Australia - New Zealand - Portugal - Czech Republic ... Actually, the list is so long!

Be open-minded : Traveling solo can be an opportunity to step out of your comfort zone and experience new cultures and perspectives. Be open-minded and try new things, even if it seems scary at first. The best experiences come from the unexpected!

Meet people Traveling solo does not mean staying alone all the time, on the contrary! It's an opportunity to meet new people and make friends. Try to participate in group activities or local events to meet people with similar interests.

Enjoy your time alone : But it's also a special opportunity to refocus on yourself and reflect on your goals and aspirations. Take advantage of your time alone to relax and recharge. In today's fast-paced, interactive society, it's becoming rare to have any real time alone.

Be flexible : Finally, it is important to be flexible when traveling solo. The unexpected can happen at any time, so it's important to be prepared to change your plans based on circumstances. Keep an open mind and enjoy every moment of your solo adventure.

Every trip or adventure is a bit like a kinder suprise egg. You know there's going to be a delicious chocolate, and then there's a surprise waiting for you inside! Sometimes it's a good one, sometimes not so good. But know that you can grow, learn, and share your knowledge and experiences in large part because of these "unexpected surprises."
