Every traveler on this planet has wondered, at least once in his lifetime, what it’s like to travel solo.
Travel has been part of our DNA since the days of nomadism. We started living in society and traveling with company or in groups, but the urge to explore the world alone never seemed to leave us.
That’s why I wasn’t surprised when an Instagram follower asked me: “I’d like to travel alone, but I’m scared… Do you ever travel alone? What advice can you give me?”
In the new episode of “Travel Questions” (“Perguntas de Viagem”), I answer this question and share some tips and tricks that I think are essential for anyone considering starting to travel solo.
