  • A vlog from a few days alone in Boracay in the Philippines, talking about traveling solo, dealing with loneliness, getting more comfortable and eating alone. My bf also joing me at the end of the video (week 3) to join me on the final strech of my trip ❤️‍🩹

    in the UK, start up conversations will be about the weather... In the Philippines, ask about the food and we get more engaging about it! 😀 When foreigners say the word "masarap" (delicious), we'd get giddy excited to know where one's from and what else you'd love to try ❤❤

    your shorts were so addicting, so now seeing a whole video was really nice. I’m half Filipina, yet have only been to the Philippines a small kid. I miss it, and the series of traveling Southeast Asia made me really happy, and I might be going next year. this vlog is so fun!

    I can really relate to what you said about eating alone. I travelled solo for the first time last year and I enjoyed the trip but there were a few times when I was in the airport or at dinner, I felt like I would have liked someone to be with me.

    Hi, I love traveling alone. And as you say, reading your book, or people watching, or in my case, listening, I can’t see very well, is great fun. I did have someone in Singapore say to me though that they thought my life must be very lonely because I was always on my own, and I am blind… I had to explain that I was actually reading a really good book, and wanted to be on my own. Anyway, we ended up speaking, he bought me dinner, and we had a really good time. I speak quite a few languages, but it can sometimes be interesting to hear peoples take on travelers with a disability. I don’t think I would’ve had such a comment otherwise. I used to be able to see enough to read print books, I had these huge glasses, and my nose would practically be in the book, but it was easier for people to understand that I was reading a book. Now, I do still read, but on my iPad, and people don’t always understand what I’m doing. Also, sometimes they would see my book cover and talk to me and ask me questions on what I was reading, if it was a fellow bookworm. Enjoy the Philippines. The last time I was there was in 2017. Where will you go next?

    YOU SHOULD CHECK OUT Siargao, Philippines! It's magical and more welcoming to solo or any visitors. It's a whole new vibe that's different from any other beach in the philippines. It's also ranked best beach in the world and the surf capital for the country.
