I want to travel by myself.

Post by Hyukhae »

Hello everyone,

I am Joyce. I very like to see different views and scenes, but I have never been abroad.
I want to go to Europe some years later. I think Europe is a good place and very beautiful. Hope someone can give me some advice. {-:

My advice is to do a lot of research and make sure you have enough money. I travelled by myself and it was a fantastic experience. Be open and friendly and you will make lots of new friends.

Is there anything specific that you need advice on?

Thanks your advice.I am a student now so I have to work on weekend to get money.I think I am easygoing and easy to get along with. What about you ? I think that you are a nice person. Ha !

Which country did you go to in the first time ? And what was the transportation vehicle you take in that country? How long did you plan this travel ?

I think you should choose that country to travel that seems to you more interesting. I think everybody has a dream to visit some country where he/she has never been before. Do you have such? :)

I do :) I would like to visit Venezuela or Mexico.

Before you go on you trip make sure to plan your travel well - how long are you planning to spend there, which countries to visit, how are you going to commute from one place to the other.
European countries are quite different from each other so you have to be well prepared - read many guidebooks, maybe learn a few useful phrases in foreign languages (for example it's hard to communicate in english in southern Italy, small villages in Ukraine etc.)

If you want to travel alone I reccomend couchsurfing - it's a perfect way to meet a lot of new people, get tips from locals about tourist atractions as well as about interesting localisations that are not so popular among tourists, but are really worth seeing;)
