In my opinion everyone should try traveling solo at least once in lifetime. It should be made compulsory, just like reading and writing going on a trip after high school for a year, six months or just for a couple of months. It could teach the youngsters so many things before life with a big L. They would perceive to see the real world with their own eyes and they could experience diversity of other nations, cultures and countries. They would open up and they could be able to see things from different angle.
Let’s be honest there is no such a trip where you don’t encounter an unexpected problem. Lost wallet, passport, bag, missing a flight or unexpected medical emergency. Let’s just take a new unfamiliar environment, alternate habits and most likely/it is very likely that the spoken language is many times different. But still the traveller can gain immense amount of self-knowledge. By all means the person will become more focused and more independent.
You will learn to value your qualities through other people or maybe you will recognize those charasteristics with in, which you haven’t encountered yet. You experience goodness, cunningness and you come to realize that is only you who has responsibility.
The human ability is also approving while you travel without companion, if we are open for it. Who you can trust or who not. Nothing is free and you have to pay the price of everything, that becomes obviously too. But of course there are kind benefactors or we can be them too. Everything will remain imprinted in the world so really matters what we sprinkle/run out from our self, because the same positive or negative energy comes back to us as well.
