Hello all
So I had been looking into the idea of travelling solo for a few years now, but had never been quite brave enough to give it a try. I can be quite shy, anxious and awkward. I am looking to push myself outside my comfort zone, and hopefully this will be that opportunity.
So about two months ago, I just felt like I'd take the plunge and book some flights and hostels for Spain & Portugal. This way there'd be no turning back. I felt pretty great about it until today - the day before my flight
I am still packing my bag and have not planned what I will be doing in each city.
My itinerary is: Barcelona-Valencia-Madrid-Lisbon
Which adds up to 11 nights. I've just booked train tickets, which have gotten pretty expensive! What I have left of my budget works out to about €40 per day, which I know is pretty tight.
So I am now feeling pretty nervous. I have not learnt any Spanish either, as I was hoping to.
I suppose I should expect uncertainty with a trip like this, but I'm starting to feel a little pessimistic
Was wondering whether anyone here could share any tips or share their experience of travelling alone for the first time ?
Thanks in advance.
