⚠️ Long post warning 🙈⚠️ It’s crazy to think that 5 years ago, almost to the day, I packed a bag, boarded a flight and moved to Australia. Alone. I had no idea what I was doing. All I knew is that I wanted to go, and i’d figure the rest out when I got there ✈️ 🇦🇺 • Solo travel was a scary thought for me. I thought I’d be alone the whole time, that meeting people would be hard, that I’d hate it and want to come home. But than, in October 2012 a friend of mine died. He was so young and barely had the chance to do anything with his life. It was at that point I realised, if I die tomorrow, I’ll have done NONE of the things I’ve been dreaming of doing. And I was more affraid of that than I was of travelling alone. • So, in August 2013 I booked a trip to England, and went on my own. This decision I fully believe changed my life. Had I lived in the fear of travelling by myself, I would have probably stayed in Canada, made a small life for myself, and spent my days daydreaming of all the things I wanted to do, instead of going out and doing them. So off to London I went. I stayed in a hostel, it was nearly impossible to not make friends, it wasn’t lonely, I was surrounded my like minded people for the first time in a while, and I met some great people. • It was them who would later on encourage me to go to Australia, which I did. 4 months after London I went to Australia on my own. I fell in love with the country, travelled the east coast on my own, and than decided I’d finish my 3 week trip, return home, quit my job, pack a bag, and actually move to Australia. • 7 months after taking my first solo trip, I moved abroad on a working holiday visa, with no return ticket home, a backpack, alone and happier than I’d ever been. • I met Will two months later and we spent the next 4 years travelling. I know it sounds cheesy, but amazing things happen when you embrace fear rather than avoid it, and on the other side of your comfort zone, is happiness. #takemetravelling #backpackerstory #passportcollective #travellingposts #exploringtheglobe #tasteintravel #finditliveit #wearetravelgirls #girlswhotravel #mytravelstory #backpacker #getoutstayout #banffgondola
