Hi Cathy,
Congratulations on your first solo adventure…and an adventure it was! Glad to know that more women (married or not) are venturing out on their own. Have a great time on your 60th Med trip!

It went well past the standard ‘list of 10’. I had my first solo trip hiking the Inca trail to Manchu Peru in 2013 and was happy with how great a time I had… especially considering it was a true adventure trip. I’m looking at a solo cruise for my 60th birthday to the Mediterranean in 2015….love my husband more than words can say but you described him to a “T” in your article. I’m getting excited!

Hi Judi,
Thank you for taking the time to read the article and I’m glad it resonated with your past experiences. Cruise lines usually charge some percentage of single supplement unless there is a promotion..usually it’s the luxury lines that have it. Not a lot of revenue in solo cabins, but nice that the Norwegian Epic has 128 of them plus a dedicated lounge for their Studio Cabin guests.
Mahalo and happy travels.
Sherry

I’ve been traveling solo for about 2o years. Before I became a travel professional, I had to travel for international business. So my trips were business with side leisure time. I loved it! I did one cruise solo ( I don’t cruise much because the cruise lines doubled the price , even though I was a “travel partner”) and at first people looked at me strange. But I loved it because I was able to do all the things you mentioned in your ten points. RE: cruise lines…….according to you they are now offering solo cabins…it’s a whole market they definitely by passed for years. Mahalo
