Why is traveling alone better than with friends?
You have complete freedom to do exactly what you want to do and go where you want to go because your time and budget is your own! Meeting new people is easy and fun, and you're much more likely to make new friends as a solo traveler. Travelling alone allows you plenty of time for quiet thinking and self-reflection.
Is it better to travel alone or with a partner?
Solo travel is a really fulfilling experience and I would wholeheartedly suggest it to anyone with a love for travel. One of the big pros is the independence you develop from going it alone. You spend time learning about different cultures and destinations, and along the way you end up learning a lot about yourself.
