  • THE ORIGINAL "WHY" of Solo Traveler is covered in The Back-Story. The "Why" Continue" is because most of what's out there for solo travelers is not about us but about those making money from us. I want Solo Traveler to provide valuable information and continual inspiration to everyone who is passionate about solo travel. New posts every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Please let us know what you need.
