Travelling Solo vs With Friends - Which is Best For You?

We’re diving deep into the age-old travel debate: is it better to explore solo or with friends? Whether you’re after the freedom to do whatever you want, or you love sharing every moment with others, this conversation will help you make sense of both sides. Expect some real talk about the highs and lows of each, plus tips to avoid the comparison trap and create unforgettable experiences—your way.What we discussed:The pros and cons of each, from the independence and freedom of solo adventures to the shared costs and companionship of traveling with friends.Why comparing different types of travel experiences can lead to frustration and how to focus on making each trip your own.How solo travel teaches flexibility and adaptability, while group trips can build stronger social bonds (and how both can be equally exhausting, in different ways!).Confessions about why hostels aren't everyone’s cup of tea—and why that’s totally okay.Key questions to ask yourself before setting off, like whether you handle challenges better alone or with others and if you’re making choices based on what you want, not someone else’s idea of a "real traveler."Why the ultimate travel success isn’t about being solo or social—it’s about designing an experience that feels right for you.Need help creating a CV?
