When I discuss traveling on my own to far off places, particularly with people I do not know well, they are often very curious about the dangers I faced and what, if anything, went wrong. I cannot blame them.
We are bombarded with bad news and seem to forget that most of us go about our lives without warranting headlines.
“Did you hear about the woman who traveled alone to Turkey?” Yes, I did. A tragedy. But did we hear about the hundreds, thousands of women who travel alone without incident?
Good news rarely sells.
Bad incidents have always happened, and will always happen unfortunately. But that doesn’t mean that we must give up on our dreams.
People will always find excuses to stop you or criticize you, maybe because they aren’t so courageous to do what they really want.
Your writing is always inspiring 🙂
