In 2019, I embarked on a life-changing journey that would take me around the world. As a solo female traveler, I was eager to experience new cultures, challenge myself, and grow as a person. Over the course of 12 months, I visited 25 countries on 5 continents, and I learned more about myself and the world than I ever thought possible.

My journey began in Bangkok, Thailand, a vibrant and chaotic city that immediately captivated me. From there, I traveled to Siem Reap, Cambodia, to visit the awe-inspiring temples of Angkor Wat. I spent a month in Vietnam, exploring the bustling streets of Ho Chi Minh City, the ancient ruins of Hue, and the picturesque rice paddies of the Mekong Delta.

I continued on to Laos, where I spent a few days hiking through the verdant mountains of Luang Prabang. In Myanmar, I was moved by the beauty of the Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon and the ancient temples of Bagan. I spent a week in Malaysia, enjoying the beaches of Langkawi and the bustling streets of Kuala Lumpur.

From Southeast Asia, I traveled to South America, where I visited the vibrant cities of Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I hiked the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, Peru, and marveled at the ancient ruins of the Incas. I spent two weeks in the Galápagos Islands, Ecuador, where I snorkeled with sea lions, penguins, and sharks.

I continued on to North America, where I spent a few days in the bustling metropolis of New York City. I hiked through the redwoods of Yosemite National Park, California, and explored the rugged coastline of Big Sur. I spent a week in Mexico, enjoying the beaches of Tulum and the ancient ruins of Chichen Itza.

From North America, I traveled to Europe, where I visited the historic cities of London, England; Paris, France; and Rome, Italy. I spent a week in the Swiss Alps, hiking through the mountains and enjoying the stunning scenery. I visited the windmills of the Netherlands and the canals of Amsterdam. I spent two weeks in Spain, exploring the vibrant cities of Barcelona and Madrid, and the sun-drenched beaches of the Costa Brava.

My journey ended in Africa, where I visited the bustling markets of Marrakech, Morocco, and the ancient ruins of Petra, Jordan. I spent a few days in the Sahara Desert, sleeping under the stars and enjoying the vastness of the desert landscape. I hiked to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania, and marveled at the stunning views from the top of Africa.

My journey around the world was an incredible experience that changed my life in many ways. I learned about different cultures, met amazing people, and challenged myself in ways I never thought possible. I grew as a person, becoming more confident, independent, and open-minded. I learned that anything is possible if you set your mind to it, and that the world is a much more beautiful and diverse place than I ever imagined.

If you are thinking about embarking on a journey around the world, I encourage you to do it. It will be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life.

Tips for Planning a Trip Around the World

• Start planning early. The more time you have to plan, the better. This will give you time to research different destinations, book flights and accommodations, and get your finances in order.
• Be flexible. Things don't always go according to plan when you're traveling around the world. Be prepared to change your itinerary if necessary.
• Pack light. You'll be ng a lot of walking and moving around, so you don't want to carry a heavy backpack.
• Be open-minded. One of the best things about traveling around the world is experiencing new cultures and ways of life. Be open to trying new things and meeting new people.
• Have fun! Traveling around the world is an amazing experience. Enjoy every minute of it.

My Favorite Moments from My Trip Around the World

• Hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, Peru.
• Snorkeling with sea lions and penguins in the Galápagos Islands, Ecuador.
• Hiking to the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania.

Challenges I Faced on My Trip Around the World

• Language barriers. I don't speak any foreign languages, so I often had to rely on gestures and translation apps to communicate.
• Culture shock. Traveling to different cultures can be challenging, especially if you're not used to the local customs and traditions.
• Loneliness. Traveling solo can be lonely at times, especially if you're not used to spending time alone.
• Money. Traveling around the world can be expensive. I had to budget carefully and find ways to save money.
• Safety. Safety is always a concern when you're traveling, especially as a solo female traveler. I had to be aware of my surroundings and take precautions to stay safe.
