solo travel
You've got somewhere to go, but no one to go with; solo travel is the nexus of independence and opportunity.
What is a Backpacker?
After solo traveling these past few months, a question keeps resurfacing in my mind with more travelers I meet. What is a backpacker? When I ask this I mean what are the qualifying factors to be able to identify yourself as a backpacker. Before I tell you what the internet told me, I’ll tell you what I think about when I think about being a backpacker.

How to not get eaten by a bear
Note: this is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to actual individuals or events is entirely the fault of that individual. I went fishing yesterday at my favorite spot — it is secluded and peaceful but it is one of the areas the salmon pass through when they head upriver for spawning. Right time of day, right time of year…I just used a spinner lure and managed to catch a beautiful string of salmon to take home for dinner. Almost too many, really, cause I have to haul them back up the trail with me and they get heavy! But you know how fishing is — when they are biting, it is hard to stop! But they stopped striking around 10–10:30, so I gutted the six I caught, cooked the smallest one on a little camp grill I have, and then Max and I enjoyed a nice fish breakfast. Mmmmmm. Love that smell!

Road Trip Towards Self Discovery
Traveling solo is not a luxury reserved for the unattached. A solitary journey is one of the best ways to reconnect with yourself when you start to get overwhelmed with the prescribed expectations that come with adulthood. Once you shut the car door, put on your seatbelt, and shift into drive, the decisions you make will be yours and yours alone. There might even be some surprises you didn't know about yourself or remnants of who you once were may join you for the ride. Here are some things to keep in mind as you plan an adventure for one.
