If you’re planning a solo trip it’s helpful to find bloggers specialising and writing about specific countries you want to visit.

When planning a solo trip, it is important to be prepared.  A thoroughly researched itinerary for your travels is useful both for your enjoyment, safety and inevitably your peace of mind – particularly if you’re new to travelling alone. There are many amazing travel blogs available online, covering adventure travel, luxury travel, budget travel, sustainable travel and more.

6  I Backpack Canada

From Saskatchewan, Canada, blogger Corbin Fraser began his travels with a year-long trip abroad following finishing high school. Returning home, he realised he couldn’t stop, and two months later he set off on the 30-hour drive west to Vancouver. Since then, he has toured all across Canada, learning about his home nation as he went. Corbin realised that there were not many online resources for backpackers and travellers looking to see Canada, and so he created I Backpack Canada to document his journey and provide information for others.

South America

7  Along Dusty Roads

Andrew and Emily left life in East London in 2015 to embark upon a two and a half year adventure across Latin America. They live by a ‘slow-travel’ ethos: they try to live a bit in every country the travel to, rather than just a fleeting glimpse of the touristy stuff. Their blog is full of informative writing about their travels through Latin America; destination guides and reviews accompanied by some truly stunning photography. Although they are now back in the UK, they continue to travel and share their experiences on Along Dusty Roads.

Australia

She focuses on simple and smart travel meaning she finds ways and gives tips on how to travel through Australia on a budget. On her website, there are lots of handy guides on different destinations to be found there – from cities, landmarks, tropical locations to the outback.

So, perhaps the first port of call for any solo traveller contemplating travelling alone in this country.
