5 mistakes to avoid during solo travel

Not carrying sufficient money

Although you may have estimated a budget, carrying some extra money with you is always the best idea as there could be some unforeseen expenses.

Not interacting with the locals

From being the best unpaid guides to giving some great recommendations about food and sightseeing, locals can help you discover the destination in its full authenticity.

Sticking only to the itinerary

While it's good to curate an itinerary, you should not base your trip rigidly following it. Allow change of scenes and alteration of schedules for something new.

Compromising your safety

Carry your medicines, first aid kit, and other essential items. Keep online GPS, offline maps, and emergency contacts handy always. Refrain from getting sloshed or high.

Not staying in touch

Keep informing your family about your whereabouts so that they know your location. Inform them in advance if you're in a low network zone. Keep your phone's battery charged.
