Finally, I came back to my roots. But this doesn’t feel real. Sitting at the airport when I am trying to sleep, I find myself walking in the narrow lanes of Eastern Europe. I even accept the impression that something is going wrong somewhere or possibly it’s the travel bug which is not letting me back to the real universe where I belong to. Food tastes bitter, which were my favorites one month earlier. I don’t know if it’s natural or not, but this is happening for the first time. I feel hot, I feel suffocated and Human Communication is fading here. I feel like spilling all the beans but don’t know where should I start and where should I stop. Insolence in the gentle wind and water is overlooking. Is it happening to some purpose or it’s just casual, am clueless? Whatsoever it is, I have never felt like that before. I require to decode this feeling soon.

Some say it’s normal, some say it’s just a bug, some say it’s for a time being and some say it’s for real. When I boarded my flight from Stockholm to Ukraine, people were so welcoming. But when I boarded a flight to New Delhi, people were looking so dull. I was then excited to be back in the end. Everything was ok until I shut down my eyes.

How it happened

I never knew I could do it. I planned it at the very last moment. The feeling was very strong that I needed this and I just listened to my guts. I was damn excited about traveling solo to Europe for 34 days. I never give it a second thought whether I can do it or not but went with a flow.

When I landed in Budapest, it was like a dream come true. And as I saw the Danube, I was so mesmerized by the beauty of it; I ended up looking at it for the next two hours. Then when I started walking along the river, I sensed something calling me. It was the history of the place. I was so glad that finally am getting into what I always wished.

Solo Traveling in Europe

It was the best decision I took in my life. It helps you to know yourself more. You spend so much of time with yourself that you started loving yourself more and more. Traveling solo gives you the freedom to do what you really want to do. You don’t hold to wait for others, nor you have to travel to places you don’t like to travel. You can spend lots of time just looking at the sea and doing nothing. The best part of solo traveling is you get to make new friends who don’t speak your language nor look like you. Solo traveling will expose you to the totally different world where no one knows you so that you don’t have to pretend, no one will judge you and this is the time when you can just be you and people will like you as you truly are.

What did I get?

Everyone asked me how much did you spend. But no one asked me what you earned. Yes, it’s more about earning rather than spending. You can spend as per your budget, but earning is in your hands. You can earn as much as you want. I earned one new family and one amazing friend who is more like a brother. I met lots of people while traveling and had an amazing time, but with very fewer people you feel at home.
