Hello hiveans, it's been ages in this space but don't panic I am back here and happy to be here once more. I have been a bit or perhaps too busy with my offline and as such, could not manage both, now it's getting better.
1️⃣ Do you prefer to travel alone, with friends, or with family?
Now, I would say my answer would come in two ways. Except it is family travel, I would not prefer to travel with my family for a trip I just intend to have fun and enjoy myself and if I am traveling to a place I am not comfortable with, a new environment and perhaps it is going to be a long trip, not a business trip or academics related just a trip of fun and relaxation, knowing that it is going to be a little hard to make new companions over there, there is a high possibility that I would prefer going with friends.
Oh! I am not ready to go with my family, I know I can not stay in a new environment, so I would prefer to go with my friend and I am sure it is going to be a lot of fun. Even if we don't get to go out or anything, staying home is going to be a lot of fun because we never run out of gist. So, except I need my alone or my "me time", and if it is specifically a family trip, I prefer to travel with friends.
As a woman, do you consider Solo Travel as a way of 'Me Time' and self-care?
Yeah! Yeah!! Yeah!!!, Solo travel is meant to be considered a 'Me Time' and Self-care time, it does not eradicate the fact that you can go out, make new friends, and all of that, but the fact that you get to get far away from family, old friends, responsibilities and every other things that keep us busy and running daily, these are very well rare moments or perhaps stolen moment out of your busy schedule that you choose to be alone and away from the norm, we all do need that moment, that alone moment, so I very much consider it a "Me Time" and self-care moments.
It's a time to reflect, be stress-free, relieve yourself of the responsibilities and busy
work days that never gave you time to take a deep breath, a time to forget about your worries even though they would still be there, but at a moment you are away from every worry and challenge, a time to rejuvenate yourself, refresh, empower and prepare yourself for the busy days ahead. Solo travel is for every reason to be considered as a "Me time and a self-care moment".
