Going at your own pace is one of the obvious but big bonuses when travelling solo. I like to take it nice and slow. I like to discover hidden valleys, mountains and rivers on foot. I like making unexpected stops when the mood takes me and just relaxing under a tree with a good book if I’m feeling weary. That is my style which doesn’t suit everyone. Travelling like this for me has enriched my life. The people I have meet have changed the way I look at the world. Given me more empathy, compassion, understanding. It does test your strengths and weaknesses but through this your confidence grows and you earn a better understanding of yourself in the process.
I cannot wait to continue to discover and experience these different cultures and traditions that open up my eyes up to wonder of our world. Next I think is the Red Centre. What about you?
