Tips for Girls Traveling SOLO
There are plenty of reasons why girls decide to travel alone. Some travel for business and some travel for pleasure only. Whatever the reason might be, the thing is when girls are traveling alone, they like themselves to be identified as just travelers without any gender discrimination.
Pack how men pack!
This might sound a little discrimination but it is a fact that (mostly) men pack very little stuff as few clothes when the trip is not long. Girls usually want to keep all the stuff in their luggage that she might need during traveling even if the probability of that thing’s need is very less.
Don’t compromise on your supplies
If you are going away for a month or so, make sure that you have all your essentials for the tour. During traveling, it might get difficult to get those supplies and if you are in an area that is not a bit underdeveloped; chances are that you won’t find your required things at all.
Find Travel buddies
If you are found of traveling and like to visit new place. Why not make a buddy that you can enjoy the tour with. Be talkative to people that will increase your friends. Like if you have just arrived at Toronto and it is your first tour. Why not plan a tour directly from Toronto Pearson Airport to Niagara Falls that will refresh your mind and will also take away all the stress of traveling. If you are going through Queen Elizbeth Way/QEW, it is around 120 kilometers that only take an hour and a few more minutes.
Make Snaps of your documents
If one’s documents (Tickets, passport etc) are stolen or misplaced during traveling; the stress and hassle very much affects the person. The best way to be secure is to capture snaps of the documents and upload them to some private online space. In case the documents are not there, they can be accessed from anywhere online and copies can be generated for reference.
Don’t get paranoid
The reason behind all these precautions and preparation is just to be safe and sound. It doesn’t mean that all the people out there are trying to get to you. There are plenty of reasons
Don’t advertise that you are traveling alone
Advertising sounds like a little more than the usual stuff but sometimes girls get so much excited. They tell everyone they meet that they are so brave to travel alone. If you are alone that doesn’t mean that you’ll have to shoe that too. You are at a new place and have no idea how the people there are? Experts advice that don’t make your self lonely or alone that it invites un wanted attention.
Hotel safety
The first thing that matter is that what hotel you have selected to spent your days of traveling in that specific area. Look for options online and see the reviews of that area and hotel before making the reservations. Some people try to save some by looking for a hotel that is less expensive as compared to other. Prefer the one that has its own security system and the doors of room are properly locked. When you are going out of the room, put the do not disturb sign on the door handle so that everyone thinks that there is someone still inside the room. That very much decrease the chance of theft.
