Seeing the sites of......
Life ticks by too damn quickly at times, and before we know it, we are left wondering where it all went, what did we do etc. So, I have decided before I am too old or incapable, or without the funds to do such things, to indulge myself by visiting a few places I have always anted to go to. (I love ancient and medieval structures/civilizations).
My question is.... Where is it that you have always wanted to go/see, whether at home or away?

That is the one thing that was holding me back. I have been divorced for 12 years, no kids, and always hoping to meet the right someone to share these experiences with. I could have done these things years ago, but waited, and here I am, still haven't gone there yet, and still alone. Sod it I thought, I booked Venice in August, Athens in October and Luxor in April 2013, and will be going somewhere else later in that year. Bit nervous about being alone, but not overly bothered. Grab the bull by the horns and go for it if you can. Well, except maybe the Antarctic one, then grab a hot water bottle by the spout!!!

Although I prefer traveling with someone, particularly when its dinner time as you tend to go out at night and do more, but I too have not had someone to travel with most of the time. I do however, just go, as I want to see things and experience things and can not wait for someone else to decide they have the same interests. I say JUST GO and enjoy.
Well, I lost my husband in 2010 and we loved travelling. I've already experienced that 'being on my own in a hotel room' which is quite strange but was visiting with sis and BIL.
sitges, that's one of the things I'd dread is the night-time and sitting down to dinner on my own. No-one to share your day with and go over the experience... so putting things off ...

Travelling alone is quite easy to adjust to; I've done it for years, for the same reason as yours; though it may seem daunting in prospect. There are some selfish pluses; you are sole judge and sole person in charge, you haven't to consider anyone else, can go anywhere on a whim, without having to think of family needs or timing or their baggage or tickets or anything else.. If you are not used to it, then eating alone may feel strange . You need books to read, in the absence of anyone to converse with.
Heck, the explorers never took their wives! LOL
