> I am considering going on one by myself. Camping and driving by myself across the southern states. I am not sure if this is a good decision--I feel the need to get out and see things, and have new experiences, but is it okay to do it alone, when I am already alone a lot? I would try to make it to see a few friends in three different states, but still, there would be a lot of alone time.
~ ~ If you're comfortable with your own company, I think it sounds like a great idea.
> I'm not worried about safety. I was thinking about camping by myself, but I figure that renting an airstream, RV, or Volkswagen camper would be safer.
~ ~ Would you park them in a camping park? They'd be better if it rains, believe me!!!
> What do you all think? I am in my 30s. No kids. I freelance for a living. I'd have to dip into savings to do it, but I haven't traveled in the last couple of years, and I need something novel in my life!
~ ~ Go for it! I think it sounds like a fantastic idea. Do you have a camera? If you do, maybe you could takes lots of photos & make an album, like I did for my pottery & let us all see where you went, after you get back.
I really think it sounds like a very good idea & don't worry about the being alone part unless it feels uncomfortable.
