Traveling alone can be pretty great, but I think I’m all done with it.
Traveling alone has given me an amazing amount of confidence. You name the country (within reason), and I will be happy to go. And I will be happy to go alone. I not only have the courage and “life skills” (as my friend Maya’s mother calls it) to travel alone, I enjoy it. I appreciate traveling alone for what I can gain from it. I have the freedom to go where I want, when I want. I have the opportunity to experience things without the influence of anyone else. I then have the power to tell the story of my travels any way I please. But, as much as I can, and do, travel alone, I don’t want to do it anymore.
I want to experience the world with other people. I want to stop taking gorillapod photos because that is the only way I will be in a photo. I want someone in photos with me. I want someone to share experiences with. I want someone to eat meals with. I want someone I know to sit next to me on the plane, bus, train, ferry, van or in a cab. I want someone to talk to that I don’t have to recite my one minute autobiography to. I want company.
So does anyone want to travel with me? I’m a pretty awesome travel buddy. I can attest to that.
I DO!!!! however, you don't have to convince me because I already know you're great to travel with:) The more the better!
