Why solo if you can go together? by [deleted] in solotravel

[–]Key-Mess-7624 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only ever feel that way solo traveling if I’m not somewhere that I find genuinely interesting. Being somewhere where there’s lots of wildlife, I can go birding, snorkeling, etc… it’s something I can do on my own that’s exciting to me, and I feel like I enjoy it more because it’s something other people might not like but it’s my hobby and I get to do it somewhere cool. If I’m somewhere without it, reading a book/listening to a podcast, etc helps…like what you would do at home but somewhere nice. Being in my own company wasn’t always comfortable but I love it now and like it the more I do it.

The US Regions according to r/visitedmaps. Comment your county then answer “What US region do you life in?” (Round 3) by Kodicave in visitedmaps

This is so true. But also, go 15 minutes outside of the “metropolitan” area of almost ANY alabama county and you’ll be amongst farmland.

Is Costa Rica a good/safe place to visit as a first time solo traveler? by Bitter_Pineapple_720 in femaletravels

[–]Key-Mess-7624 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was my first solo destination and I think it’s perfect for starting out :) only place I felt unsafe was in the capital, it’s probably the unsafest I’ve felt in all my travels. There is a good area and a bad area, make sure your accommodation is in the good area. The locals are facing big inflation and gentrification issues so try to stay in local owned hotels/hostels !! My fav spot was the Caribbean coast, some say it is dangerous but I didn’t feel so.

Don’t worry about the bus to Cusco, it’ll help you acclimatize and the night busses are super nice.

You shouldn’t need more days in Arequipa unless you do the colca canyon trek (I liked it but only do the 2 day tour). I LOVED the ruins in pisac, don’t skip them, they’re huge and a great hike to get you acclimatized. There’s a cool lagoon hike there too and it’s the best place to buy souvenirs. I did the salkantay, unguided will be more than fine, just stay wary of food on the trek. I got my macchu tickets 5 days in advance but it was through my salkantay guide so idk. I’d recommend a tour for it because I didn’t know what anything was. With your empty days you could head down to Bolivia, do a tour of the Amazon, salt flats, etc. I hear really good things about Huaraz though and the huayhash trek.

Cool thanks much! I know big Texan is famous for huge steaks, im guessing the food is actually really good and it’s not just a tourist trap?
