I would live out of a suitcase, if it meant I could travel the world.'
Travelling is the ultimate experience one can have in their life. It gives you a broader view of the world and makes you realize how little you know about things. Travelling to places far and wide will make you question everything you know.
However, most of us are too afraid to be alone or do things by ourselves. Try remembering the last time you did something by yourself - even as stupid as going for a movie; If you can't, then there's even more of a reason for you to travel alone at least once in your life, and learn who you really are. Travelling alone will get you touch with your inner self, and forever change the way you see the world.
1. You will learn to be truly comfortable with yourself.
Most of us are too afraid to be alone with our thoughts, or even go out for a meal by ourselves. Travelling alone will change all of that, because you will get in touch with your inner self and learn who you are.
2. You will meet infinite number of crazy and truly inspiring people along the way.
You're more likely to strike up a conversation with strangers if you're by yourself. You will meet a lot of interesting people with amazing life stories and make a few great friends along the way.
3. You will learn to trust your intuition and safeguard yourself.
You will realise that you're capable of accomplishing way more than you thought you could when you have no one by your side. You will learn about your strengths and your weaknesses and learn to believe in yourself.
4. You will be able to go wherever you want and do anything you want.
Imagine not having to care about what anyone else wants, and doing whatever you want to do! The possibilities are unlimited!
5. You will learn to live outside your comfort zone.
They say life begins at the end of your comfort zone. You've been way too comfortable all your life, so don't you think it's time you pushed your boundaries and tried something new?
6. You will experience freedom like never before.
Imagine being free of everything, from family expectations to social commitments and just going wherever your heart takes you.
7. You will learn how to make your own decisions
When you're travelling in a group, everyone has their own ideas of where they want to go and what they want to do, but when you're alone, you're the only one responsible for your decisions.
8. You will discover places from an era gone by.
When you're travelling alone, you will really pay attention to the places you visit and the stories they tell.
9. You will lose yourself and then find yourself along the way.
At the beginning, you won't know what to do with yourself, or where to go, but as time passes by, you will learn who you are and discover your purpose on this planet.
10. You will become more introspective, and aspire to answer life questions.
You will start asking questions like 'why? and how?', instead of just accepting things as they are. Travelling alone will broaden your mind and fuel your creativity and sense of being inquisitive.
11. You will gain a new perspective on the world.
When you are alone, you tend to truly observe things and people, and this will change your perspective of the world and how you see it, completely.
12. You will have the most incredible stories to tell.
Imagine the things you will experience and the stories you will have. You will have lived what most people only dream of doing because they aren't daring or adventurous enough. As Ray Bradbury says, “Stuff your eyes with wonder, he said, live as if you’d drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It’s more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories.”
