people always say "oh ill travel when im older when i have more savings" but during mu first semi-solo trip (because i joined a local tour) i realise you do not need money to travel. you need HEALTH. there was this lady in her 70s who accompanied her 40yr old daughter on this trip, and during this whole time, the old lady stayed on the coach because the roads arent even and comfortable enough to walk, or theres just too many stairs (it was in Turkey). it changed my perspective of travelling. you really got to do it when your body is ABLE. your health will only go downhill, but your savings have possibility of going up as you age

Your video is so on point! I started solo traveling in my late 20s when I decided to leave my comfort zone. Hostels, hitchhiking, cheap late-night buses where you sleep on the bus and arrive at your destination in the morning, and cooking my own meals at the hostel. All of that changed after I reached my late 30s. I enjoy staying in nice accommodations, eating at nice and delicious restaurants, and taking flights instead of night buses (my record was a 29-hour bus from Munich to London). Life is incredible! I'm heading to Africa again for 3 months in July! 2 more weeks!

Great video. This past winter I asked 2 of my closest friends if they would travel to Italy this year with my husband and me. They've never been there. We are all about 60. They balked at the cost and said, "Maybe in a few years." I was disappointed and stewed about it for a while. When I saw them next, I gave a little speech--nothing as comprehensive as your video, but along similar lines: In a few years, nothing is going to be easier. Our parents' health won't be better. Our health won't be better. We won't have more income--it's too late to assume that. People sometimes have buyer's remorse, but almost never have traveler's remorse. I talked them into it.

Agreed with everything you said. One of our family members always says "I wish I had travelled when I had less money because now I have the money but are not healthy enough to do it" and that's reason enough to travel as much as you can because you never know if you're going to be able to do it later. Exploring your backyard counts, especially if you live somewhere like the US.

You are so spot on. I started travelling Solo, since 2016(minus pandemic). I have started to travel every year for my birthday and made a promise to myself that i need to wake up in a different country on my birthday. I just returned from South Korea today. Travelling really adds a different perspective to life. a new chapter to your book of life. It does really boost the confidence and most importantly it definitely kicks the survival instinct in you when you travel alone. In the recent trip, I met a Korean lady and we spoke for 30mins using google translator about everything under the sun we can discuss. She even invited me to her house to show her beautiful garden. I totally agree, the level of comfort travelling has changed over the last few years for me too.

Love your point on traveling helps build problem solving skills. It just sparked an idea for a summer activity for our 12 yr old to design a day adventure here in Austin and give him a destination and he has to figure out how to get there using the CapMetro rail, how to buy tickets for it. Including things like a budget for lunch, and figuring out where to eat, and work in little bit for him to plan and figure out. Travel in your backyard.

A tip for you Allison- you should come to the White Mountains in New Hampshire and to Vermont the first two weeks of October. Specifically drive the Kangamagus Highway and bring your drone. There’s nothing like the Autumn Colors there. Our next road trip is to Lake Willoughby in Vermont the first week of October. Then Scotland or Italy next year. Thanks again for your videos. Peace.

I found late 20s and early 30s to be the perfect sweet spot - I worked heard in early 20s to make the money, then put the so called 'career' on hold to prioritise travel. Best decision I could ever make! But also the more I travel the more I believe that money is not always the biggest barrier - if you want to make it work, you will, no matter your budget! Also one aspect you touched upon, how the world is changing, how travel is changing.. I would love to hear more about this from you - do you see travelling change because of social media / KZitem / instagram?

This is a great vlog you're so right on all accounts as a lover of travel in my 20s I was broke in debt finally finished college at 28 started traveling around 34 after paying my debt greatest decision.I travel solo mostly because I can never find people who want to go the places I do or they don't have the time or money but I don't let it hold me back plus I'm a introvert so solo travel is amazing for me. I'm 43 now still healthy and can walk miles and miles but I have discovered my tolerance for traveling in hot climates walking alot, staying in lower budget accommodations and being in crowds has really diminished so we definitely change as we age expectations, comforts etc. I can do extremely long flights but now I can't tolerate economy like I did at 28 or 34 I have to be in economy plus, or 1st class if I can afford it which sometimes off season I find good prices on 1st even business class I'm at a age where comfort and peace is priority great tips.

You are so right! Now is the time to see the world. Allison, I was so inspired by your fabulous video chronicling your Namibia Safari, I just added my name to the list for the April 2024 Nambia Photo Safari organized by SafariFrank. I'm 65 and in good physical condition, all things considered, and now is the time to go if I want to go. Ten years from now, I might not have the energy. Although I have been on tours with women in their 80's who had more energy than most people in their 20's. The point is I have that yearning for adventure. My idea of adventure may be different from when I was in my 30's but a sense of adventure, nonetheless. I have traveled solo all over the world. I congratulate you on encouraging young women to take the plunge. If you're smart and safe about it, traveling the world can be an amazing, awe-inspiring adventure! Best of luck with your KZitem channel, Allison. You are a real inspiration for young women to get out there! And semi-old ladies like me, too. (-; And, btw - there are some real travel deals out there to be had. For those on a tight budget, look for airfare deals and cruise line deals. They are there. You may have to save up your money and keep looking for the right one to come along, but the airlines and cruise lines have sales that just might make a trip "doable."

Great video, you are young and wise and I very much agree with what you say. I’m in my mid 60’s now and have travelled the world most of my life. My personal goal is to visit 100 countries before I die. I am currently at 65 and I would already have made my target except that along the way I returned to places like, Kenya, Tanzania, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK multiple times each, because they are all so worthy of multiple visits. Your breakdown of our timeline of life is very accurate. I’ve gone with little and for longer when I was younger, put up with sleeping in noisy dorm rooms at hostels, flop houses in SE Asia and sleeping on a wooden pew in a church in Africa because it only cost $1/night. At this age and retired my wife and I don’t stay at luxurious places, moderate hotels, motels and B&B’s are just fine. We use local transport, buses and trains and we like to rent a vehicle for a week or two at a time to give us total freedom to go where want to go, when we want to go. We mostly plan and arrange our own itinerary, it is so easy with the internet, something we didn’t have in the 1970’s and 80’s. From time to time we will sign onto an organized 2 week trip and I must say, I have actually really enjoyed them because we did our research and made sure it was with a small group, 15 or 16 maximum, and allowed us to be very active, not just sit in a bus and watch the scenery through a window. I truly agree with your list of benefits, improving problem solving skills, developing a worldview, and that we never know what the future holds, good and bad. Eight years ago I went through life threatening cancer but by the grace of God, I’m still here and still travelling. Seize the day, carpe deim. I’ve noticed over the years/decades that some people can just jump in the deep end and go off travelling but I was much more of a crawl, walk, run person, starting with shorter trips with a few friends, then shorter trips solo and then having the experience and confidence to go on my own for multiple months to a year long trip backpacking the world. I still hope to make the 100 countries, with Egypt and Jordan being added in a few months. Travel on!

England has always been my #1 bucket list 🥹 I didn’t care that I was going solo, I HAD to jump at this once in a life time opportunity.

And, I'm slowing down and can't do all of the things that I could do in the past. I still plan to travel when and where I can for as long as I can.

All good points. Can I add one? If we assume that travel makes life-long memories, what would you rather do; travel at 70 and have those memories last, say 15 years, or travel at 30 and have them last 50+ years? Regarding the money/time/health scenario, I think they sometimes compensate for each other. For example, as a 65 year old I suffer from Sciatica, which makes sitting crammed into an Economy seat for long periods painful sometimes (it’s a lottery!). Fortunately, at this stage in life, my finances are such that I can book premium economy when needed. I don’t think the tolerance of discomfort that you mention is necessarily linear with time. Depends on the objective of the trip. Sometimes we travel to celebrate, or for a treat, in which case we “push the boat out” a bit with comfort. But I’m a landscape photographer and if I’m travelling to get a shot in a particular location, I’ll do whatever it takes to get there. (And yes, happy to still sleep on the floor at 65. Actually helps with the Sciatica!😂)

In my opinion, it's not only about the tolerance changes over time, which is true...but also the fact, if you travelled before for some time, or more often you just know sometimes it's better to pay a little bit more money to not having rats in your bed. :'D Or knowing that some things seem a bit shady, just look at the pictures online which could bring you and others into severe danger. So having experience means knowing when to invest and when not. :) For example, I learned to stay in female dorms in a hostel. It's not about me not liking men or mixed dorms. But the fact that over time I made lots of sadly bad experiences, made me be more aware and so I prefer to pay some dollars more to sleep better and feel safe. :D Love to watch your videos, because it makes people open their horizon and go for what they want. Do prefer to travel alone. With friends it's fun, but I like to take my time making videos and photos and don't need to adjust to another person in the meaning of food, morning or night person etc. Could tell lots of stories about travelling and interesting situations as well. It's wonderful to talk about these with others to learn from each other.

I can't travel yet, but I am not making an excuse! I am 16 and clearly broke haha, but I plan to change that soon enough, and I was watching this video not because I needed more reason to go, but to keep mind focus on why I need to keep pushing! One day I am going to book my first flight and my life will truly start ( I say that because I want to dedicate my life to travel!) and I will have the best time of my life! I am a little scared, I won't lie...but it is almost a excited fear? I don't know! Anyways, love the video and safe travels!

All great points on travel. I've been very fortunate to travel all over the world with work and pleasure. It absolutely opens up your views on other people and cultures. In regards to Angel's Landing in Zion....I say skip it. My buddy and I continued on the West Rim Trail and hiked way above Angel's Landing with way better views and not a soul in sight. Sure, it's an extra 8-10 miles, but sooooooo worth it. Get away from the crowds.

So funny. I have been wanting to walk the Camino de Santiago, the French Way in Spain, for 15 years now (I am 36). I just finished it. It took me 1 month to walk over 500 miles. I now am in Portugal and will also be making my way to Morocco after. And yes, I am doing these trips by myself!!

Hi Allison, great video! Excellent analysis. I just got back from Florence, Amsterdam and Copenhagen. I am sooo tired, and can't believe I am already looking to see where I might want to go next. (That's after I travel to see my mom in Latin America). I followed your recommendations/ tips for my Oman and Dubai/Abu Dhabi trip last year, they were all on point. Thanks! You are right, the best time to travel is now! I am thinking maybe Japan, Korea or who knows, maybe go South Asia. I have only been to Tokyo briefly and Shanghai for a wedding six years ago. I appreciate your tips for female solo travelers.
