As a budding solo traveler, I can say that I have already dealt with some of the things listed here. What you pointed out in Number five (FALSE EMPATHY) is something that I can really relate to.
I am solo traveler through the life - or lifer :-D I don't speak with most people because my mighty brain can sense idiots miles away...can you imagine how I feel on this planet ;-) I avoid people - fortunately, there is not many people in mountains.

I do agree and have faced similar situations. I am a solo traveler too and I love it.

hahaha.. i am mostly a solo traveler too and i guess i was lucky, i haven't experience much of the above actually.. #7 partly because i gave up on including myself in photos. Not sure about you guys but sometimes we just dont have much of a choice and our circumstances turn us into solo travelers, because if i keep waiting for others, i'll never go anywhere! That's probably why i take a chance and go out there alone and if i meet other solo travelers.. lucky~

i dont know what to say…been working from different countries for a couple of years now, friends and so-called families are built but i need to face the fact that they do come and go… i am about to start my journey as a solo traveller, i don't know if it will work for me but life is short, need to try everything before its too late. wish me goodluck! thanks by the way… a lot of good info in your blogs

somehow people always react really shocked (not even surprised, just shocked) when I tell them I travel solo. It gets really old after some time. So that would be my number one on my "I hate - list". But I have actually made really good experiences with #10, because the first thing solo travellers ask each other are those kind of questions, it's an awesome conversation starter! I usually have trouble doing that except when I'm travelling.

Point 5 & 7 apply to me when I travel. I always get my own hotel room so maybe that's why the other points don't apply to me (no opportunity to make friends on the trip!)

Great photo after the selfie comments. I often take solo shots with a gorilla pod - even when random people are kind enough to offer to take the shot. They're well intentioned, but find it's a challenge to get people to take a quality photos with me in to be them. I always accept, and then take my own
Love your article! and your shots as well! :p what kind of app or camera do you use? Thank you for updating constantly your blog, I really enjoy reading it :)
You are so right man, a lot of people just don't know what freedom it is to travel alone & what great energy you can get by this way. Good article!

That is always true. No one can take the perfect shot except you. :)
