After some posts by the Solo Travel Society regarding the idea that solo travel is scary and lonely, I would just like to reiterate: IT IS NEITHER.

Mostly because it is nearly impossible to be the only traveler in a place, forget being actually alone. Also, unless one is traveling to literal war zones – which one is probably not doing alone anyway – one is no more likely to die in a strange place than in a familiar one. I promise.

It’s kind of like “Choose Your Own Adventure” stories.
