Traveling solo vs traveling with a group

For the second time in Vang Vieng Laos there has been a group tour come through. The current one I have been hanging out with a little and it has made me a little jealous. I constantly have to make new friends who may be with you for days or maybe even only a few hours. Is traveling by yourself all bad? Not at all but what person doesn't want or need a connection.

It was my choice to travel alone but I know in my future trips I will do some trips with group tours from time to time.

You do have to take the good with the bad. At times I haven't been happy in a city so I have moved on. Not having a lot of money it could be good to travel solo as you can save more money (at times) you can meet more people and everything is on your choice what you do or when you go.

What can make things tough traveling solo is you have to figure out so much by yourself such as how to get to your next destination or hostel, wander around lost in a city, watch your own bags all of the time. People do come in and out of your life so quickly and so many appear again.

I am lucky in the sense I have so many friends scattered throughout this world who have all been amazing to show me around and to introduce me to all of their friends etc.

Today I joined up with the group tour to check out the blue lagoon the pictures are posted below. For now I need to go eat and the wifi is becoming beyond frustrating.

Take care
