Traveling alone is an amazing experience. It is liberating, empowering and unforgettable, from the moment you book the flight ticket, to finalizing the itinerary and to realizing you are making it all on your own, in a foreign country. Regardless of how wonderful it is, traveling alone in comparison to traveling with friends, can be a bit more pricey and therefore I am sure many people decide to wait for a traveling partner and postpone the journey of a lifetime.
