Solo Travel Isn’t Just for Backpacking 20-Somethings!
Thinking about traveling solo for the first time & you’re over 30? Hells yeah, Sis!! Congrats on finally making time for yourself, reclaiming your independence, or proving (to yourself & everyone else) that solo travel isn’t just a “young person’s game!”
I see you. I get you.
Let’s clarify something important: This isn’t about quitting your job to live in a hostel bunk bed or “finding yourself” on a gap year. This is about owning your freedom, stepping out of your comfort zone & taking the solo trip you’ve always dreamed about.
No more waiting on flaky friends, no compromising on what you want to do; just you, traveling solo on your terms!
& I know the questions running through your head:
- Am I too old to start traveling solo at 30 or 40? (Nope. Not even close)
- Will I feel out of place traveling alone in the Canary Islands? (Only if you get in your head)
- Is solo travel safe? (With some common sense and insider tips — absolutely)
- What if I don’t like being alone? (You will, once you realize how freeing it is)
Whether you’re looking for the most walkable cities in Spain, booking a solo trip to Madeira/Tenerife, or finally booking that slow travel trip to SE Asia, your Solo Traveling Homegirl [that’s ME!] is here to help you ditch the doubts, plan smart, and travel responsibly.
What you'll find here
- City guides built for first-time solo travelers over 30 (walkable, safe & packed with the best eats & experiences).
- Packing lists that won’t leave you hauling a suitcase bigger than your hotel room.
- Real talk & travel stories from other solo traveling homegirls who took the leap into solo adventure in their 30s & never looked back.
Solo travel at 30+ hits different in the best ways; you’re wiser, more confident & know what you want. Now it’s time to get out there & take up space.
