Solotravel Stories

Myra Sethi doesn't do spontaneous. So booking a last-minute solo flight to Amsterdam - one week before her cousin's wedding - is already a lot. Aryan Mehra is used to traveling alone. He's fine with that. But a chaotic airport announcement, a forgotten diary, and an accidental upgrade put them side by side for seven hours. And somewhere over Europe, alone stops feeling like enough. Some trips are about getting away. This one might be about something else entirely.

Are you tired from traveling places to places but never found what you are looking for? You do not even know what you are looking for either? Are you fed up with material things, only to end up feeling empty and longing for more and more? Someone hurt you? Yes we are all hurt. That's the reason why this lady wrote her story. You are never alone. 🏝

Ricky Barnes has spent much of his life traveling across the world with his country superstar parents, juggling a regular life, and standing out from his peers. However, being the child of a successful public figure has had devastating consequences on his school life and romantic relationship with his childhood friend Bailey Prescott. With that, he gives up the dating life altogether and focuses on school and his acting career. Jewel Kadibil, like Ricky, grew up in a well-known family albeit on a larger scale since her family rules a section of Australia. Though well-put-together on the outside, she struggles with everyday tasks since she suffers from spina bifida as well as dealing with her overbearing nurse. She wants a way out of her dull life and be her own person. When the two cross paths in an unexpected place, drama and hilarity ensues. Will they care more about their images than their personalities? Will the two families approve?

A series of short love letters to all the glamorous cities I've visited. This is for the 2018 #SoloTravel contest.

I had always dreamt of traveling places...because I had never left my home state. On my 18th birthday I had finally saved enough money to go to the place I most wanted to go...Paris, France.

This is a short story for the #solotravel contest. It is about a favorite bike route I rode in order to do a lot of thinking.

Nothing can top summer in Seoul. A single traveller on a monthly adventure, to become a tiny part of a city with 9,8 million people, 707 subway stations and a once in a lifetime opportunity to taste it all live, form Namsan view, Han River cruise, Sockcho beach to k-pop. #Solotravel contest entry

Pain. Something I know all too well. Boiling softly at your heart, then striking suddenly at the pit of your stomach. Hurt. Something that boils beneath you, slowly manipulating you to become something new. Pain and hurt are two very different things. Pain is torture, hurt is simple. Life is pain- but is pain life? That is why I travel. To numb the horrible pain from my misfortunes. I travel alone, to echo my hollow hurt beneath me. The only thing I want in return? Anything to take my pain away. Anything to give me a new memory. I will only go solo. Never with another. Forever in search of the perfect photo. Because like the one time I believed I was happy? Fate will have other plans.

It had been three years since my language learning had begun. Somewhere along the way I adopted the dream of visiting the beautiful island of Taiwan. That dream had finally become a reality, but instead of feeling like I could dive into the culture and language of the land, I felt apprehensive, uneasy. I knew I had to get out of that mindset and fast. Here are the little happenings that help me bridge the gap and free me from my fears.

My camera's my only companion on this journey. One that'll span hundreds of miles and will be preserved for eternity in snapshots. A journey destined to be timeless, my flying solo.
