The only thing more stressful than a group chat, is a holiday group chat… ?
I’ve been on a few girls trips, and a crucial component to any girls holiday is the holiday group chat.

So you’ve decided to take the plunge and go on your first solo trip?
To say that I am excited for you is a bit of an understatement lol.
I really want to use my platform to encourage y’all to step out of your comfort zone and solo travel. You won’t know if you like something until you try it.

However, I found that a lot of the pages I was following only showed one type of traveller.
I rarely, if ever saw someone who looked like me. Someone that I could relate to.
