About this episode

The episode discusses the pros and cons of traveling alone, challenging the glamorous portrayal by influencers.

Influencers make it seem like it’s the most fun and liberating thing a person can do, but is it really all it’s cracked up to be? In this episode, I talk about some of the pros and cons of traveling the world alone.
