“Wander often, wonder more, and return richer in spirit”
In today’s episode, we’re covering all things solo traveling! If you’ve been itching to get outta here, but don’t know where to start or don’t have anyone down to go with you, this episode is for you!
Specifically, I’ll be helping you figure out if you’re more of a planner or go-with-the-flow type of traveler by laying out the pros and cons of each. I’ll also be explaining what hostels are, how to go about booking your first stay, and ranking my experiences from this past trip.
******Spoiler: Portugal has my whole heart!!******
Lastly, you’ll be getting a list of roughly 20 of my top travel tips/necessities to make your next trip go as smoothly as possible.
Whether it's budgeting, planning, packing, anxiety, or fear of international travel, I hope that this episode eases your mind in any (but hopefully all) of these categories! No better time than now! You are ready & more than capable of makin those dreams a reality. Truuuuust.
I’m here for you & rooting for you always! Xo
Check out this week’s homework (scroll down) for a glimpse of the topics covered, and if any stand out to you, tap iiiin.
