Solo travel experience

I went on my first solo trip in November and chose Ireland. * stayed in Dublin (Jacob’s Inn hostel, 100% recommend) * did a bus tour to Cliffs of Moher and Galway, takes a day. I went with Wild Rovers tour and enjoyed it so much, very informational and plenty of time for site seeing (solo or group) and just a fun day. A fellow female traveller I met did the sheep dog tour, they offer several different routes! * took the train (dart) to Heath from Dublin for a day. Try Octopussy fish & chips! * I felt safe the entire time there which of course was my biggest concern, people were very friendly * I used public transport which is very convenient in Dublin & cheap. Took the bus from the airport to city centre for €2.60 * I didn’t have an itinerary besides the bus tour as I booked very last minute but there was so many things to do, spent 5 days there. The hostel is a great place to meet others to hang with * DO A PUB CRAWL, but prepare for the worst hangover of your life Ireland, I will be back! Next time I plan to visit more of the countryside it’s breathtaking🫶🏽

Solo travel experience

Dublin was my first international solo trip. I stayed in the Temple Bar area around Christmastime and walked everywhere by myself. I was always aware of my surroundings of course but I never once felt unsafe. Not even a little drunk at 2 a.m. There were always groups of tourists around and I always felt comfortable. The pubs at Christmastime are absolutely beautiful. I did a bus tour for the day up to Belfast and Northern Ireland to the Giant’s Causeway and Titanic Museum. The Belfast Christmas Market was going on which was amazing.
