 Have you ever thought of traveling solo and wondered that you haven't gained any experience? 

Well, don't hesitate to travel solo to grow mentally, spiritually and physically. And if you are the first

 time solo traveler, we will show15 tips that definitely help you go on a more successful 

independent journey. Let's check them out.

1. Book your first night or the first few nights of accommodation with a view to making your journey easier.
2. Make detailed arrangements for your journey and have things booked to alleviate anxiety.
3. However, you don't need to make plans as you may meet other travelers and then you want to change your plans.
4. Traveling alone does not mean you are alone. You can meet and make friends along the way, and explore everything together.
5. Invest in the clothes that feature hidden interior pockets in order to store your valuables and ward off pickpockets.
6. Always bring along your accommodation’s card with address because it's easier for you to call a cab and get home, especially when you are someplace you don't feel comfortable.
7. Spend a day or two becoming familiar with your new environment, and keep in mind that you do not plan too much during this time.
8. If you want to find a travel buddy, we recommend asking them essential questions, such as how much money they spend and how much alone time they require.
9. Always carry a safety whistle to scare off potential attackers and even frighten off animals.
10. Get used to travel apps that help connect travelers, such as CouchSurfing, TravBuddy, Penroads and HearToMeet.
11. Get engaged in the sharing economy to help introduce you to locals and take in local culture. We highly recommend BonAppetour and EatWith for having dinner with locals, Skillshare for classes with locals, and Airbnb for living like a local.
12. Buy travel insurance since you don't know what would happen during your journey.
13. Be confident: Do not let others know that you are an unsure traveler by burying yourself in a map or walking with your head turned down, therefore, you are proud to make people think that you are a local.
14. Give yourself a chance to grow. Traveling alone means you will be faced with challenges and new experiences. Whenever you overcome a challenge and something new, you are giving yourself the chance to learn and grow.
15. As soon as you arrive at your accommodation, ask for a map of the places that are safe and unsafe to walk alone.
