There a many opportunities for people who choose to travel solo. Many adventure seekers choose to travel on their own and there are many ways to do so safely and without paying a lot more than other travelers who share their accommodations.

Here's just a few reasons why people choose to travel solo.

1. Leaving your comfort zone might be a healthy push you need to challenge yourself.
2. Spending time alone can sometimes help you to know yourself better.
3. It can boost your self confidence in your own abilities.
4. You can make new friends and meet other people traveling solo.
5. Your spouse or partner cannot travel at the same time or doesn't enjoy the travel like you do.
6. You can be selfish with your own time.
7. Its empowering, and other people tend to admire those who have the guts to travel solo.
8. You have total control of your time, money spent, and making spontaneous changes to your itinerary.
