solo travel
You've got somewhere to go, but no one to go with; solo travel is the nexus of independence and opportunity.
Stop targeting vulnerable young travellers
Over the summer of 2021, I was looking at Global Work and Travel. I was dreaming of going to Ireland on a work exchange. I was thinking of living there for a few months, working , meeting new people and perhaps do some genealogy research. I thought Global work and Travel would be awesome website if i worked more hours and saved up more money. I was telling a relative of mine , that it was a great idea and she had her concerns on the idea " is the website is safe ? ".

The TERRA born soul
Nobody can hear you scream in space.. It took a moment, and yet, as my internal scream echoed into a silent void and a peaceful quiet I'd never heard before became what I was looking at. It held me to this moment, because by a fading flash, that scream.. was my death scream. I had died.

Yellow Bricks
Yellow bricks, green balconies and winding streets, but not a Euro to my name, which is how I had once again found myself wandering aimlessly through the streets of Malta – this time a narrow street in Valletta. I’d spontaneously booked a trip to return home for the first time in just over a decade, however after miscalculating dates, I’d only been left with the few Euros I had changed on the way. I’d managed to get a week-long bus ticket (and some pastizzi) on the first day and figured I’d just explore until my money came in. I wasn’t worried. After spending entire days on various beaches, I decided to head to Valletta. The capital was as busy as I’d remembered it, streets flanked with bright balconies and numerous groups of elderly men gathered on steps outside buildings. The familiar language, and accent I assume I once had washing over my ears as I traced paths I had walked so many times as a child. The warm smell of imqaret permeated the air, bringing back memories I didn’t know existed. Every similarity providing comfort as I navigated through the onslaught of people headed for the market, however it wasn’t long before similarities became differences. I’m not sure whether it was the new shops in place of old, or that I was struggling to remember how to ask for imqaret without sounding like a tourist, but I had begun to feel very out of place.

Explore the world it’s worth it ...
From the beauty of mountains to the glittering sands of the shore, reviving voice of the tides that fades up smoothly as they embrace the shore, the fragrance of the dry sand when hit by the first drops of rain in the deep pine forests, ripples of small waves when the vital air strike against the lake, at this surprising instant the sudden chirruping of birds when they make flight nearby, these all are enhanced by the moments of the day, for instance, if it’s the moment of the sun to blaze & ready to sprinkle it’s luminosity over the world from the spack of sand till the peak of the mountains till the depth of waters, the beauty of nature spreading its magic beyond the horizon, & all these amazing sceneries are worth admiring & indulging one’s self in the serenity beyond all worries that keep us bothering making us avoid the blessings of nature spread at each & every step every now & then.

What are the Do's and Don'ts of Traveling Solo?
Traveling is also giving yourself one of the best opportunities that nothing else can—to discover and rediscover yourself. There are few people who truly know themselves, and many of those people traveled the word or still are traveling. Now when I talk about traveling I don’t refer to that type of traveling with many friends and tour guides and with a basic touristic route to follow.
