The 13 Best Places to Travel Alone
~
Solo travelers can and do go just about anywhere,
but there are certain places around the world that are particularly easy and even rewarding to visit by yourself.
~
In crafting this list of the best places to travel alone, I looked at factors such as safety (especially for women traveling alone),
local culture, the chance to meet other travelers, and the ease of getting around if you don’t speak the language.
+
~~
The Handy Item I Always Pack: "A journal. Even years later, reading my notes from a trip can bring back incredibly vivid memories."

Ultimate Bucket List Experience: "Road tripping and hiking through the rugged mountains of Patagonia."

Travel Motto: "'To awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the pleasantest sensations in the world.'—Freya Stark"

Aisle, Window, or Middle Seat: "Aisle. I get restless on long flights and like to be able to move around without disturbing anyone else."
~~

Read on to discover the best places to travel alone.
