Hi Awdylanis
Go for it girl – I’m become single not through choice but I love to travel. You have inspired me to get myself out there.

How to take myself on a fun vacation.
It made me
more confident 
"I was really nervous about doing it, but it made me more confident and trust that I can take care of myself."
How I did it: There wasn't any one thing that I did to make this happen, but I'm always wishing that I could travel and visit different places, but I've always been scared to travel alone and have never been very good at asking other people to go do things. When I visited New York a few months back, I fell in love with the city and decided that I would love to be able to hang out there for a weekend doing whatever I wanted.
To feel safer, I did a lot of research about all the places I wanted to visit and just tried to make smart choices when travelling around the city (no subway at night, I'm way too Midwestern and I'd never be able to hide it!).
Lessons & tips: Honestly, the best advice that I can give is that when the idea to go hit me, I just went for it and dealt with all the details and my insecurities later.
Also, picking a destination where it wasn't so obvious that I was travelling alone made me feel a lot less self-conscious. I'm sure that if I went to some touristy place where everyone was in big groups, I would have felt weird. However, there's nothing quite like being able to do your vacation your own way.
Resources: For this one, I have to say that I just had to be brave and jump in. My family and friends were incredibly supportive and were there for me when I got lost within my first hour in the city and started freaking out. The whole situation helped me to build confidence in myself and even in the people around me.
