Solo travel is all about going on
your own steam without ever having to compromise on the things you want to do,
the foods you want to eat and the people you want to meet. Ah, the bliss! But, while it can be utterly
blissful, it comes with its challenges too. Especially as a female traveler who
has to haul her bags from here to there, perhaps upstairs or down the road.
Backpacking, especially, becomes incredibly difficult. Why? Well because us
girls take everything but the kitchen zinc! We want as many clothing options as
possible, and we certainly test the durability of our travel bags (and our
strength), in the process.
So, how does one travel light
without compromising on style? That’s the question we always ask ourselves, but
never seem to get a solid answer. Which, of course, sends us right back into
heavy-packing mode. But, for once, you’re going to get the answer (and the
guidance) you’ve been waiting for! Take a look at our helpful tips for packing
as a solo traveler.
