Love the quotes and the photos!! At first I struggled with the feeling there was something wrong with me wanting to travel solo. This was encouraging to hear others were also drawn to travel and PLAN solo trips. The planning of the trip also brings great joy! Thank you for the wonderful story Nona💗
What an incredible trip you had - I loved your pictures and I received a lovely message from Colleen yesterday too, glad you both read it I wanted to surprise you.
Oh yes do I ever know the feeling of wondering if it's wrong to even ask to do something solo. There really is something magical about the planning and anticipation. I have a feeling more ideas for daring adventures will be calling your name! Until then, maybe there will be a third annual sunrise walk and coffee in your future to discuss the possibilities:)
Nona! Love everything about this. Walking part of the Camino has set the wheels in motion for many more walks. It has opened up possibility that I haven't felt in years.
The biggest question I get asked from people is if I was worried about travelling on my own. I love that you have offered ways to ease into solo travel for those who might be new to it.
I loved this piece Nona! Thank you for sharing part of my story as well. Solo travel can definitely seem scary but I think it's good to get outside of our comfort zone. Utah was my second big solo road trip, the first being across Canada, and I've definitely been bitten by the bug.
There's something special about the contemplative silence of travelling on your own, whether it's on a long road trip or hiking through desert and mountains. It brings you back to yourself and I think in some way provides healing of your soul.
I loved the list you shared. Scotland is on my list hopefully this year because I'd like to do the West Highland Way. The Camino has been on my mind for well over a year now as well, so Sarah's story has really inspired me to take another look at that. Getting back to my solo back country camping is another thing I'm looking forward to this year.
That all sounds amazing!! Thanks for your thoughtful comment - looking forward to reading your Medium recap of your trip. I tried to tell or describe to Scott the video of you driving over the rocks, but words just don't do it justice - I think maybe it was your colourful video commentary that made it so good:)

Would love to hear of more ideas for solo travel!

Now ... on to planning my next adventure!
I can't wait to hear more about what is coming next for you Sarah!!
It's always amazing to me how quickly the Universe conspires to help us find the right fit - the possibilities are truly endless.
Oh and thank you for the lovely voice message yesterday - I really appreciated it and your kind words:)
Scott and I are contemplating doing the West Coast trail next summer for our Anniversary, but it might be nice to sneak a solo outing in preparation;)
