Women Traveller? Solo Women traveller? Wow.. that’s the way to go!!
Here are a few travel tips for you to consider before heading to your destination:
- Don’t just travel anywhere. Always choose your destination that draws you for some reason. You should understand your reasons and know why you want to go where you want to go. That’s when your travel experience would be more enriching and memorable.
- Just try to simmer your imagination of how the trip is gonna be and keep your expectations low, so that you will be a tad bit more open and free to travel in the moment. This way you can take in and enjoy your surroundings more.
- Do not pack too much or too little but just enough. Be informed of the weather conditions/local culture of your destination and plan to pack your clothes/toiletries and other accessories accordingly. Pack lightly so that you will be more mobile during your trip.
- Make sure that you have a place booked to rest on the first day of your arrival at your chosen destination. If you cannot book it prior, you should at least try to arrive during the day time and find a place while the daylight lasts. This will also give you a chance to change your accommodation in case you do not like it or feel uncomfortable for any reason.
- Avoid letting strangers know where you are staying. It is not a good idea to tell people about your accommodation. But you should make sure that someone you trust back home knows where to find you, just in case.
- You will surely meet a lot of new people. Start a conversation with other travellers. You can always build friendships with people around the world and who knows you could end up being friends with them for the rest of your life.
- Make sure you keep your documents like ID Proofs, Passport, Cards and Cash safely. Always carry your original documents along with you and also have a set or two of backup copies on you. Also leave a set of these copies with your trusted contact back home.
- These days, Women lead busy lives. If you are travelling to give yourself some time off from all the circus, just take a break from screens and technology. This will really give you that free time to discover your true self.
- You could also do a little bit of conscious travel by buying local stuff, eating local food, staying in local hotels etc. This will give you a chance to better understand local culture as well as to be supportive of the local economy. This way you might end up learning something new and interesting which could be of great consequence or a game changer altogether in your life.
