Hi Everybody, How are you all? I hope everyone is fine and in the pink of health.
I've been very busy with my work & personal life It hasn't been easy for me.
Well, I'm still not ready to share about it in public yet. Well, let's talk about the happiest moment to me in the past few months.
I've went for 2 solo trips. 1st is Hong Kong and 2nd is Tokyo.
I've never been so bold to go for solo trip. Never in my life that I can imagine that I'll travel all by myself to other countries other then in Singapore.
I would like to share my feelings on the 2 solo trips. Firstly, it wasn't a easy decision to make. Seondly, I'm wondering how should I tell my family about. And, Thirdly, Can I really do it all by my own?
Well, after the 2 solo trips. I can say that I've enjoyed to the fullest. Its even better to travel with my previous partners. I get to visit the places that I always wanted to go. Did alot of shopping and sightseeing. And most importantly, I do not have to compromise to anyone during the trips. I just have to please myself, see the countries through my eyes & also enjoy the peace that I can never get when I'm travelling with someone else.
Although its always better to travel with someone, but sometimes it feel much better to travel just on your own. The 'Peace' is not what you can achieve even if you are home (especially for those who lives with the family).
Maybe because i'm a introvert. I do not like to talk alot even especially when I'm at home. I like to enjoy quiet time by myself.
If there's any of you out there who wants to go for your very first Solo Trip. I would suggest you the following:
1) Book the accomodation near to the subway and central of the city (especially for woman).
2) Plan your Itinerary ahead. Do check online/ travel books and jot it down on a words/ excel files.
3) In your itinerary, input the subway line/ station name/ bus no.. so that you do not need to waste your time to search from the map.
4) Purchase subway pass via online, especially if you are going to japan. In Japan, it can be very difficult for tourist to understand their subway line.
5) Always carry a backpack with you.
6) Bring umbrella & waterbottle with you. I will also buy fruits the night before my next sightseeing, so that I can have it when I feel hungry.
These are the stuffs that I'll look into when I travel by myself.
Friends asked me if I want to go for Solo Trip again. My immediate answer is 'OF COURSE!!'
Till then. See you all!! bye!!
