Few days years back I met a traveler Roshni. We had same interests, sat together and started talking.  I asked her what she was doing and if she is happy.  She worked in Corporate Communications and was looking for a break.  She wasn’t happy.   A monk who was listening to our conversation came to us said something which made an impact. He said “Travel. Meet people.  Experience cultures.  You may not  get wealthy, but it will make you happy.  When you have lived your life,  it will be your stories with vivid memories that will make you feel young.  Your travelling will make you feel young and full  every damn day.”

I thought about it. About the days of my young days.  It turns out that out of my 20 years of learning in school and college, what I remember most is cycling and the fun trips I had with my friends or family. These years are almost 2000 days of my life, limited to memories which made me happy. Everything else seems blur.

I remember every trip to grandparents and when our cousins visited us. Those were the experiences I shared with the people who made me feel loved.  My life is happy because of them.  I feel young because in my mind these vivid memories define the growing-up years. Time jumps from one happy memory to another.  It runs slow during the most threatening life experiences and fast when you are happy.  Travelling can take you there. Out from regular life to a place where you create memories for a lifetime. Travelling solo has always been a culture in foreign countries, but now it has come to India as well. People, youngsters & from every other age group,  love to spend time alone.

Solo traveling lets you be the owner of your own itinerary. You can do things your way. You can wander off. Change your mind. Stay. Follow a new path. You don’t have to take your plans through anyone else’s preferences.  All you need to do is carefully balance your own needs and feelings.  It allows you to be selfish and not feel bad about it.

For those who us who have been around children, families, friends, and even pets, this is a luxury.  You can see your own potential, put your wits to a test, or challenge yourself to do something totally out of a blue. When you are totally alone, on your own, your personality comes into picture. You create your own rules, judge what to talk, how to speak or when not to engage. That exposure teaches something that most Indian families probably did not give liberty of – the freedom to choose kind of people we made friends with or ignored. They defined our choices for us and expected to follow. However, with travelling solo, all these conventions are getting challenged.
You now have the opportunity to learn something new all by yourself. It brings you closer to see best of humanity which is of strangers showing kindness in simple little ways that make our days happier!
