Amazing what can happen when you put yourself out there.

Nice post. My solo travel moment has to be when I was in Madrid last month and went to Plaza Mayor to spend the afternoon, just looking at people. I ended up busking with two polish musicians who are regulars at the Plaza and bought beer for me. Didn’t make dime, though They even taught me some Spanish swear words which, considering I am also a Spanish native speaker, was a very enriching experience!

I’m late to the party, as I’ve only been following this blog for less than a year. Better late than never though. This is a GREAT post that I can definitely identify with. Thanks for helping with my metamorphosis.

Hi Fida,
Thanks for your kind comment. You’re right, there are many angry people out there – I’ve met my fair share of them too. I guess I’m lucky to have realised I had some anger issues and that I had to deal with them.
Travelling alone for that lengthy amount of time really worked for me and I hope others will give it a try some time to experience its therapeutic benefits.

Hi Keith,
You are a very wise man. I don’t know how many angry people would be able to even recognize that they are angry, let alone deal with it. I met so many angry people on my travels that I think they should have taken the “Edward road” first Then again, they didn’t really travel alone – mostly in groups, until they got thrown out but then looked right away for other fellow travelers. Maybe if they really had traveled alone like you said, they’d finally would have come to terms with their anger because nobody else would have been there to blame. Great article! And so glad you found what your calling!
