5 Green Places for Solo Travelers

Either you love it, or your hate it: February 14th. When everything turns rose-colored, the flower shops are in high-season and you are overwhelmed with chocolate hearts everywhere, many people simply just roll with their eyes.

Especially for singles, this day tends to lead to gushing refusal and they call the day lovingly “Single Awareness Day”. We say: time for oneself is a very important factor for a conscious and well-being life – no matter if on a daily basis or during traveling.

Thus, we offer you 5 advantages being alone and 5 matching green places, to visit.

2. More open towards others

Probably, you already have noticed it yourself: when you travel with someone, you are always on the go with him. Sure, you also may get to know new people, but if your are just on your own, conversations with other guests happen much quicker. And this is when fascinating conversations and new horizons happen! In El Albergue in Peru, close of the city Cusco, you can take part in an authentic farm experience and cook your own lunch together with other guests. The result is enjoyed in a relaxed atmosphere together, with a view onto the surrounding scenery – great conversation is guaranteed.

4. Overcome fears

It is not easy, to become aware of your fears and then also admit to them. When one is alone, one is pressured to confront them and in the end to conquer them. You always wanted to travel to a far away place? Then pack your bags and head to Nepal to  The Pavilions Himalaya. Hike at (or over!) the Himalaya mountains or spring though the Nepalese rivers in a water raft. The possibilities are endless. You will return as a new, more confident person!
