You may have noticed on assorted Porty pages online a proposal to bring some light and colour into this rather dark and dismal time of year. Thatâs especially true when so many of the events which would have taken place in December have all had to be cancelled. The idea is to turn night-time Portobello into one, large art gallery with people filling their windows with all kinds of art works illuminated simply by leaving the room lights on. Itâs already attracting a lot of interest. https://www.windowwanderland.com/ https://www.facebook.com/ActionPorty Royalty Free Music from SmartSound Album: Holiday Magic - Deck the Halls, Joy to the World, Rest ye merry gents, Wishing You a Merry Christmas

8 Myths About Solo Female Travel Debunked
Updated: 8/26/2018 | August 26th, 2018
Kristin Addis from Be My Travel Muse writes our regular column on solo female travel. Itâs an important topic I canât adequately cover, so I brought in an expert to share her advice for other women travelers to help cover the topics important and specific to them! Sheâs amazing and knowledgable. This month, we are starting the year off with some of the common myths people have about solo female travel!
Your partner thinks it would be selfish of you to travel without him/her. Your parents are worried for your safety. Your friends want to go with you but they are all busy working on their careers. The mainstream media tells you the world is a scary place for women. The little voice in your head whispers worries about loneliness to you. Does any of this sound familiar?
Just like you, I had a lot of misconceptions about traveling alone before I went overseas. I thought it might be dangerous, lonely, too much work, or make people think that I didnât have any friends.
Plus, who wants to see all these amazing places completely alone? It sounded like a non-option, at least at first.
Then I realized nobody had the time to go with me, and I couldnât wait any longer. I just had to go, or else I might never go.
So I went alone and found out that all of my assumptions about traveling solo were dead wrong. I wasnât lonely, I didnât end up kidnapped, and, in a lot of ways, it was actually way better to travel by myself. The freedom it afforded me, the way it grew my confidence, and all of the new friends I made were huge benefits that wouldnât have happened it I went with a group of friends.
So for everyone who thinks that solo travel is lonely, dangerous, or boring, I am here to debunk a few common solo female travel myths to help give you the courage to get over your fears and go on an epic solo adventure
Myth #1: Solo traveling means being lonely often.
The scariest thing about traveling by yourself is the thought that you might be alone for your entire vacation, right? Who wants to travel to the other side of the world only to have to be by herself while looking at the majestic red sunrise over Angkor Wat?
I was really worried about this before I started traveling solo. Thankfully, I came to find that I made more friends in one week on the road than I had in a whole year back at home.
The best thing about traveling solo is that youâre not the only one doing it. More and more women are considering the concept of solo traveling to be realistic these days, and I couldnât believe how itâs encouraging to see so many other solo female travelers out there traveling by themselves! Thanks to the power of social media, you can easily join online communities that are created specifically for solo female travelers, where you can gain and give support, share your travel plans, and connect with other like-minded solo female travelers. I also find that itâs easy to talk to and meet other travelers â theyâre friendly people! I rarely felt alone during my years of traveling thanks to this.
Myth #2: Solo traveling is only for those who are single.
Before I started traveling and meeting people with all kinds of different stories and backgrounds, I figured that if youâre traveling by yourself, it must be because you donât have a significant other. People who have commitments like a family or partner donât just go traveling on their own. It must mean thereâs a problem in the relationship or that theyâre escaping their commitments, right?
Wrong. I came to learn that plenty of people who are in relationships travel alone, and for all kinds of reasons.
It could just be that they have different interests, something many relationship experts say is totally healthy. Maybe their partner canât get time off from work, or maybe both parties made a conscious decision to do some soul-searching on a solo adventure, even just for a portion of the trip, and meet back up again.
Many solo travelers are single, but there are many more who are in relationships too. Just because youâre not single doesnât mean you canât have an awesome trip by yourself.
Myth #3: You must be extraordinarily brave to travel on your own.
A lot of my friends thought I was ultra brave and independent because I was going to travel alone. The honest truth is that I was incredibly scared and overwhelmed with the idea of traveling solo until I finally just got on the plane and went. To fear what you donât know is just to be human. Itâs in our nature.
Despite being terrified, I went anyway. Later I laughed at how scared I had been, after I realized that getting around, meeting new people, and finding things to eat was all way easier than I had ever thought it could be.
You donât have to be sure of everything and incredibly courageous to go traveling on your own. Those things may come as a nice benefit of traveling solo, but they donât have to be prerequisites. The hardest part is getting on the plane. After that, itâs surprisingly easy to get around language barriers, figure out timetables, and have an adventure. Plenty of locals speak at least some English, and Google Maps, translation apps, and cellphone connectivity have all made traveling so much easier than it used to be.
Myth #4: You canât be an introvert.
I used to quietly watch the TV in bars or wear my headphones in public places so that I wouldnât have to talk to anyone. I used to feel pretty paralyzed in a room with someone with a strong personality. Basically, I was kind of awkward.
But an incredible benefit of traveling by myself is that it has made me outgoing. Even if you have trouble starting a conversation, in a hostel common room, chances are really good that eventually someone will reach out to you and bring you into a conversation. I recall that in the Philippines, a girl tapped me and asked where Iâm from, and after chatting for a while, we became friends and hung out all week.
You will probably also find that after a few times approaching new people â which will be incredibly nerve-racking at first â they will be so much more open than you feared that it will be an encouraging surprise. Itâs so easy to start a conversation by simply asking somebody where theyâre from or where they just came from. I know those are clichĂ©, but they also work, and before you know it, you have something to talk about.
Itâs easy to build up confidence around travelers â theyâre just really friendly people!
Myth #5: Itâs dangerous to travel solo, especially as a woman.
Youâve seen the movie, Taken, right? The one where Liam Neesonâs daughter gets kidnapped in Europe and he kicks major butt and rescues her? Or what about Brokedown Palace, where Claire Danes gets thrown in Thai jail when a handsome stranger plants drugs on her? This is our image of girls traveling the world (thanks, Hollywood!). Itâs no surprises that time and again, women are told that they should never travel solo!
First of all, neither of the protagonists in those movies actually was traveling solo. Maybe if they had been, they would have paused and listened to their voices of reason and stayed out of trouble.
Staying safe on the road is all about trusting your intuition, behaving abroad like you would at home. Would you get super drunk alone at a bar at home? Would you walk around alone at night? Talk to the locals at your guesthouse about what you should watch out for, and practice common sense. What kept you alive at home and keeps you alive on the road, too.
For more check out this post all about solo female travel safety.
And take a look at these blogs for inspiration and proof women can travel alone:
Young Adventuress
Alex in Wanderland
Me! Be My Travel Muse
Every day millions of women travel the world alone. Itâs safe and doable, and you wonât end up in a ditch!
Myth #6: You will constantly get unwanted attention.
It happened from car windows when I was walking home from school at age 14, it happened when I was getting into my car at a random gas station in the middle of nowhere in Nevada, and it happens when I walk down the streets of New York City. Sometimes a boyfriend was only a few steps away â it didnât matter. Catcalls happen abroad and at home. Theyâre annoying, yes, but donât let them keep you from having the awesome solo trip you deserve.
The best way to deal with that kind of attention is to make sure you understand the modesty requirements in the countries that you visit and dress accordingly. Some women suggest wearing a wedding band, but I find that being very confident, looking people in the eye, and being respectfully assertive are all good ways to stand my ground as well.
While simply being a female does open you up for catcalls and unwanted advances in some parts of the world, in many cases, though, itâs quite the opposite, and Iâm treated with respect and kindness, particularly because Iâm a woman traveling on her own.
Myth #7: Itâs way more work because you have to do everything yourself.
If you travel on your own, you will be making all of the decisions.
This is also the biggest benefit of traveling solo. It means that you donât have to plan ahead if you donât want to, and have more serendipitous fun, the novelty of which we are hardwired to crave. You donât have to worry about whether the other person is having fun or not, or stress about doing everything for two or more people.
In fact, the more I travel solo, the more I find that planning a trip for one is often much easier than planning for a group. I get to do only exactly what I want to do, see places that others may not be interested in, and even have a âday offâ in my travels without the guilt!
The benefit of complete freedom while traveling solo absolutely outweighed the extra legwork that I had to do. I also found it easy to just ask a friend which restaurant or activity they liked, or the person working at the hostel counter. Itâs not that hard.
Myth #8: Traveling solo is a huge, life-changing decision.
A lot of people sell off everything they have and take off to the other side of the world with a one-way ticket in hand (Iâm talking about myself here), but that doesnât mean that everyone who travels solo has turned her life upside down in order to do it.
It can be as simple as a weekend trip alone to another city, a two-week jaunt to a warm and tropical place youâve never been, or a monthlong solo backpacking trip in Europe between semesters. It doesnât have to be a huge deal, and you could come right back to life as you know it before, with a few new adventures and a bit more confidence.
****It turned out that, contrary to what everyone (including me) thought, solo traveling wasnât dangerous, boring, or lonely at all. It actually was one of the most social activities Iâve ever tried.
I ended up finding that, instead of solo traveling being a disadvantage in any way, it was actually advantageous to be free when I traveled. It endeared me more to locals, and I got to have unique experiences because I could say yes to everything, and thatâs something that only solo travelers can say. Itâs a big benefit to be able to go where you want when you want, without having to answer to anyone else. There must be a reason why it keeps growing in popularity year after year, right?
If traveling is about the benefits, the time spent in a new reality, and a departure from your normal, everyday life, then to traveling solo is to put those benefits on steroids. Give it a try, and you too may find that your misconceptions about it are all wrong.
Kristin Addis is a solo female travel expert who inspires women to travel the world in an authentic and adventurous way. A former investment banker who sold all of her belongings and left California in 2012, Kristin has solo traveled the world for over four years, covering every continent (except for Antarctica, but itâs on her list). Thereâs almost nothing she wonât try and almost nowhere she wonât explore. You can find more of her musings at Be My Travel Muse or on Instagram and Facebook.
