Solo Travel to Croatia
Solo traveling is still a nightmare for many people. My experience as a solo traveler was also overwhelming. As a female traveler, we are not even spared by the stalkers in our home town. So, the idea of traveling alone to another country came with a lot of anxiety and stress. As a keen admirer of diversity, I have always loved exploring the new. Croatia is a tourist spot. People travel to discover the history, beaches and a lot of archeological sites. It serves beauty, thrilling activities and a long way to a different perspective for the eye.
It is not easy for an individual to lead their mind towards a unique perspective. Human beings are great in adopting new ideas, but some habits from childhood die really hard. We are addicted to the story that is relevant and reflexes of our minds often refuse to accept anything that opposes our idea of living.
However, my solo trip to Croatia was no different than any other, but it has a lot to teach me about life. The moment I came back, my mind has some of the great stories to narrate. I was better at proposing a different world and happy to create new ideas. My mind was open to a different perspective about life and its purpose.
Now the question is: what was it that has turned a stubborn heart into a mindful soul? I went to the places alone, researched about them, made my notes and bluntly asked troubling questions. Yes, the main reason behind the change was the courage to ask questions. It was in the beginning, but it helped me in making better decisions for the future.
