How to: Solo traveling as a girl

 

How to: solo traveling being a girl!  


The other day I was scrolling in my Insta (what a novelty, I know) I saw this video about a Colombian girl being followed by a bunch of men, and fortunately, the ice cream store owner warned her about the situation helped her, In the end, she could get out of the place and she came back to her homeland the next day.

This story is creepy and hits differently when you have experienced similar situations.

I was also in Turkey when my taxi driver picked me up. I was so excited and I started to take pictures everywhere. The man noticed that I was trying to take photos from the backseat so he offered to sit next to him.

He did not speak English, but somehow I understood him, On my way to my hotel he was trying to invite me to have dinner after leaving me in my hotel. I told him I did not want it to go and that I actually was married (a white lie). He insisted and then he told me that I wasn´t married because I didn´t have a ring. I freaked out because I didn´t have data or a Wifi around. Eventually, we arrived at the hotel and I just left as fast as I could.

This situation among others has taught me how to be prepared when you are traveling alone. So let´s start:

#1 BUY AN INTERNATIONAL ROAMING PLAN: It may sound like a "cliché" but I wasn´t buying a data package before that experience. Don´t be cheap on your data, is worth it. You never know when you will the most.

There are other options if your phone company is expensive, just buy another SIM card from another company.

So this is the first suggestion to keep yourself safe when traveling.

Storytime: I dislocated my finger while driving. I know it was stupid.

 Hello all! I have a hilarious story for you guys, sometimes I feel my life is a comedy. I´m a distracted person and is getting worse. Sometimes I find my keys in the fridge or even my phone among other strange situations that I provoke in myself. I was driving to Cuernavaca, Morelos which is a state close to Mexico City. I was leaving a work meeting so I was feeling very euphoric and excited. Sometimes I´m not patient so that day I was wearing boots, and Cuernavaca is a warm place so I wanted to switch my boots for sandals.  I stopped at the red light, and I tried to take off one of my boots. I was doing it roughly and fast. I pulled with all my strength and.... my thumb dislocated :(. When I saw my thumb hanging I freaked out!. I was completely shocked. The red light changed to green and I moved the gear but avoided looking at my thumb.  I pulled over and called my parents. I explained the situation very excitedly and suddenly I started to pass out. I listened like an e...

Tips for your trip: Areas to stay at Santorini

  Hello all! I don´t know if you remember this song called "Stereo Love"? Well back in time, I loved this song. When I watched the video I liked it a lot more. The video was filmed at Santorini. I immediately fell in love with the location. When I had the chance I went to know this captivating island. When I was doing the research to visit it. I learned it was expensive. However, it is divided between zones that have different pricing. Of course, the most costly has "the best view". To be honest, I found all of Santorini with great views.  Here you have the different areas: Oia and Imerovigli I would say this is the most expensive area, there are many of some of the most expensive hotels in Europe here. You can enjoy breathtaking sunsets and the white spectacular architecture  Besides, there still are affordable hotels. The hotel I stayed in was "Maryloujhon Villas Oia" the price nowadays is CAD$389 + taxes per night. Fira  If you like to party and you don...

Today´s Inspirational Place

 So today my inspirational place is :                                                                 Serengeti National Park   I´m crazy about animals. I long for visiting Tanzania, especially Serengeti. It is in my medium-term plans.  However, is not cheap at all: If you are willing to camp outside of the National Park it will cost around USD$285-USD$425 per person per day. If you don´t like camping, well it will cost around USD$320-USD$625 per person per day. So if you love animals like me, and you have the budget, don´t think twice and visit Tanzania.                                                                Would you like to visit another safa...
