The dream of one day going to travel abroad is arguably a desire that millions of people around the world set out for themselves.

There is so much we wish to see and explore that it’s almost impossible for you to be content with just being in the same town or country you grew up in.

This is because the journey of exploration has the ability to take you out of your comfort zone and inspire you to see, taste and try out new things. This challenges people to embrace new adventures and make new friends along the way.

While you may find it fearful to go on a vacation in another town or country on your own, there are several benefits of doing so which can be useful to you.

According to the mental wellness information hub Travel Psychologist, having the opportunity to travel alone by yourself means that you have plenty of time to focus on one very important relationship; the one with yourself.

This means that you gain more self-belief as you navigate through new challenges by yourself. This will later give you the confidence to be self-sufficient and build life-long skills, such as problem-solving and decision-making.

Go Abroad believes that these are some of the main benefits of solo travelling:

• You will meet new people and make new friends from different cultures.
• Earn lifelong skills through problem-solving and decision-making
• It enables you to have a guilt-free break and helps you recharge.
• You learn new things about yourself.
