Solo Travel: Tips, Stories and Why It’s Empowering

You guys know we LOVE to travel and we’ve shared all kinds of travel content throughout our episodes but we haven’t done one dedicated to solo travel, until now! Allison recently returned from a solo trip to Tulum and received a lot of questions about her experience so we thought we would start from the beginning and talk about where her love of traveling alone started.

We share our advice about backpacking Europe, budgets, solo-friendly destinations, tips for staying safe, how to trust your gut instinct and the best ways to meet other travelers. 

We also answer listener-submitted questions such as -

• “What do you do to stay busy and not feel so alone?”
• “Does traveling solo affect the destinations you choose?”
• “Do you have epiphanies//life-changing experiences from traveling alone?”
• “Any recommended destinations for someone who wants to solo travel?”
• “What tips do you have for someone who has never flown before?”
