I’ve done it once and really enjoyed it. I find a lot of times abroad you get speaking to others really easily and then it’s not so lonely.
Give it a go and see what you think. Hope it works out for you 😊 |

Have wildcamped and hiked alone. Long weekends staying in YHa campsites or similar, always someone like minded to speak to.
Prefer those types of solo trips to solo hotel breaks etc where there is less of a community spirit. |

I have many times and love it. You get to travel where you want to, do what you want and eat what and when you want.
I found that if I wanted company, people were very welcoming but I got as much alone time as I needed.

"Thank you all, I feel a bit more positive going alone  nothing ventured nothing gained, after all it's a new experience "
What are you hoping for?
Relaxing in the sun?
Club night?
A holiday fling?
No need to answer but I found it useful to think about why I was doing a particular holiday |

Regularly. I like being able to do what I like, when I like without compromise. Always people to chat to but travelling solo can mean a lack of meaningful connections. A good compromise is joining a group holiday as a solo person. I did that twice last year and have made some enduring friendships from around the world |

I do everything on my own. Still always takes me a lot of overthinking, panicking, and worrying before I commit to doing things so not often I do anything. Only been abroad 3 times but went on my own each time. At least I can do my own thing when I'm not too anxious to leave the hotel |

Was in Berlin on my own last month and loved it. I love history and it was great to be able to do what I wanted for the week. Only thing that would have made it better would have been some action with a local lady  |

"I did a solo holiday to Spain last year for 5 days. I enjoyed it but I think 5 days on my own was more than enough, I do prefer being with someone to share the experiences with. "
For a sun holiday I totally agree. Did a week in Lanzarote on my own and was bored after 4 days. |

I've not holidayed alone but I've been on some extreme day trips on my tod and fully enjoyed it (first flight, day in another city/country, fly home in the evening). Sometimes I enjoy just having my own company and no one to worry about than just me. |

I have been on about 30 solo holidays of varying types. Cruises, all inclusive, group tours etc. I have enjoyed them all, especially the independence of doing what I want to do when, not accommodating someone else's wishes. I'm off again on Wednesday for 3 weeks. |
