Your Voice Counts!

Travel has the power to transform you. You go out exploring the beautiful landscapes or just stroll around town, in the woods, amidst the clouds, enjoying the sea breeze and so many versions of beauty. Not only nature but you will learn about culture, food, people, and so on. And solo travelling just makes everything special.

Now you know how cool it can be to go on a solo trip. The experience in solo travelling may vary, but the list below will save you from the trouble of backpacking. However, it doesn’t differ much whether you are male/female. All you need to figure out are things you might need to survive your solo travel. This solo travel is going to be so much fun with these amazing backpacking tricks.

The Bag You Need:

First thing first, you are going on a solo trip, so you only carry your own luggage. So, dear solo travellers, pick a bag that is enough to have your things and not give you much pain. If the size is big and your belongings are less, what would you do with all the extra space? And if your backpack is small, your things will not fit. So, depending on your need and travel location, select your bag.

Sort Out a Pair of Bottoms:

Now, start with clothes. It now depends on the place you are going to visit. If you are visiting a beach, a pair of shorts is needed. If you are going for a trek or a cold place, you will need more than a pair of shorts. You will need additional track pants or sweatpants to put in your bag. You can always insert some extra depending on the travel plan. And it would help if you always keep an emergency pair.

A Thermos You Must Include:

The steel bottle you carry to work or you see somewhere at home, well, this bottle will give you the relief of cold/hot water storage or a longer time. Hot/ Cold again depends on the need of your travel destination. This is a saviour, and you have got to need it. Be it any weather; a thermos can save the day.

Shoes or Flip Flops:

While travelling solo, prefer comfort over style. Shoes if you go trekking. Yes, it’s mandatory as you might decide that you want to climb the serene mountain in front of you that you want to conquer. Flip flops for the beach and for everywhere and anywhere you go. If you have it in your bag, you can switch to the other option anytime to get some air for your tired and never stopping feet.

All the Cosmetics:

No, we are not talking about a makeup kit. We’re here talk about some necessary items for your skin to protec. What you will need is the following:

  • A good long-lasting Deodorant Spray or Roll on!
  • A facewash, which will keep you fresh during your journey.
  • Any sunscreen lotion with SPF 24-50 SPF level can work really well
  • A sachet of handwash. This will be required for urgent nature calls while camping or travelling.

Girls can include their needs as well if you fit them into space. But you need to make sure the backpack should not get heavy for you.

Electronics – the Saviour:

It’s impossible to imagine a day without a phone. After all, you need to capture your journey through the lens, and your phone will help you to do that. However, charging in the middle of the forest could be challenging if the battery goes red. So, for the trip, you just need some basic gadgets to help you survive solo travelling.
