How I Learned to Love Traveling Solo

I never really felt comfortable enough with traveling alone until Cate Huston's post.  It seems hard enough for me to go out to eat by myself let alone travel the world, but Cate had a way of making it all sound fun and adventurous.  Huston's thoughts and experiences on traveling solo were inspiring.  She had a way of making me feel as if it were okay to go out of your comfort zone and try new things.  To live care free in a sense.  Me being someone that doesn't have the best sense of direction, would start off small at first as to where I'm going.  I've always wanted to travel the world ever since I was a little girl.  Being able to experience new things and different places, see all the different cultures and to go out of my element and taste different foods just seems intriguing to me.  While traveling alone, you wouldn't have to worry about going along with plans that may not interest you.  You wouldn't be on a schedule or timeline.  Having the ability to just pack up, (lightly I may add), seems amusing to me.  After reading Cate's post, I am more motivated to just go out and travel.
