Every trip I take is a solo trip. Being able to go where you want and set your own schedule is great… but it does get a little old. It’s not like I don’t have anyone in my life. They just don’t like to travel. I’m the only one who does.

Husband likes to travel as much as I do so I can’t really think of a situation where I’d go anywhere alone.

Where are you staying on your trip? Want to check out Big Bend at some point.

But yes to solo trips, wife still works, I'm retired.

Took a two month retirement trip to the Southwest a couple years ago. Would go 2-3 days without talking to anyone. Loved it.

Moving to AZ in November. I'll be camping when the wife works. Can't wait.

With a wife not caring to and kid too young to enjoy a full game day, I do LSU trips solo these days. Sometimes can corral some buddies, but I've gone to the Texas bowl, last ywars Florida game, and a weekend series at the dude at MSU solo..... kinda appriciate having no agenda and being able to totally focus on the game

Yes, road trips. I did a Virginia battlefield tour, Ozarks tour on motorcycle, and a few overnight camping trips. As others have said, it's nice to be able to pick your own schedule and side trips.

A solo vacation is the best reset since Nintendo. I don't even have to go far. Just go pond fishing for a day by myself and I'm recharged. A weekend trip is great too. I don't need more than a day or three.

I've been on plenty of solo trips. I got used to traveling alone with my job while covering different parts of the US. I've done solo trips to Belgium, England, Thailand, Singapore, Cambodia, and plenty of US locations. I like the freedom.. Now i do one or two a year in between trips with gf. If I am traveling I am happy...

I take a solo ski trip every year. When I was racing more I would take a few racecations each year as well but thats about it.

If I go somewhere solo it's because I want to do something physically my family / friends can't or don't want to do.

When I sell my house, and the other shite is over with I am. I’m taking off for a month to just go see places and bask in solitude.
