I hope you find yourself very well!
Here I continue with my personal story about how I got into this world of solo travel.
The last time I was telling you how I changed to live alone after breaking up with my partner in Caracas (actually it was a pause, which later became a definitive break).
But Venezuela did not have the best conditions to work remotely (I am a digital marketing consultant), so I decided to do something even more radical.I decided to spend the second half of my trip in Colombia.
I could have returned to my country (Chile), but my return flight left Bogotá in a month and a half.
So I decided to wait it out and enjoy the rest of my trip.But I decided to do things right this time.
I took the time to research the best cities, the best neighborhoods, what to do and what not to do.
I became completely obsessed with solo travel safety, after all the scares I went through in Venezuela.
It took me a lot of time and effort, but it was worth it.I had an amazing time staying in Colombia alone, spending a month in Medellin as a “digital nomad”.
I even spent 10 days on vacation in Cartagena, before returning to my country.
It wasn’t easy, but this decision was one of the best I’ve ever made!
So cheer up!
Sometimes the circumstances of life lead us to take somewhat uncomfortable steps, but that result in a lot of growth.
In my next email I will tell you about some of the experiences I had in Colombia and how you (yes, you!), can start your adventure in your favorite destination (hint: it all starts with your MENTALITY).
All the best,
Juan Pablo
