11 Pro tips for International travel
I have compiled my pro tips below that will come handy for your International solo travel. These are pretty much situations all of us have to deal with. Here are my first hand experiences throughout my travel journeys. Hope they help you in some way!

My first ever S.O.L.O. trip!
My first solo travel, ever in life was internationally. It was year 2015, I had a full time IT job at that time. Those days youtube and social media were not popular, at least I was not into it(even today, I maintain a distance!). I did not had outside world of information to make a decision. Rather I sat down to see what I want from my first ever solo travel? What I would like to experience? These were my basic 2 questions. I wanted my trip to be as original and fresh experience for me that I never discussed with anyone or asked for ANYTHING (recommendations, suggestions etc.). No…

But W.H.Y. Solo?
“How can you even think of going solo anywhere, that too out of country? Are you totally out of your mind?”…Fortunately, these were NOT the words of my parents, I was quite relieved. Its not that they don’t care but it was their non-familiarity from traveling/solo traveling world. I mean they are pretty simple-caring-parents, not following modern-trends-but-doing-daily-life kinda parents. Of course, they were concerned of my safety and well being but once I assured them, they were fine. I just let them know about my travel plan and that I am going solo… it came quite natural to us as I took all my life decisions, so it was easy.…

Undeniable D.E.S.I.R.E. of traveling the world!
Hey Loves, Wondering, what got me started even with idea of “Travel”? Hmm…so lemme answer that for you. Its all to blame Netherlands, lol…funny story! So here it goes. I loved watching ‘Discovery channels’. Probably two decades back, yups pretty lonnng time…I was watching a random documentary which showcased a flower factory in Netherlands(NL), talking about how they export flowers mostly tulips. I was hooked to tulips..that was first time I discovered ‘Tulips’ and Tulip farms all around NL.
