In my quest to visit 100 countries by the time I turn 50 — unfortunately, that’s not too far away — I’ve been traveling solo a lot more. In 2017, for example, I visited Cambodia, Malaysia, Indonesia, Cyprus, Malta, and Montenegro all by myself. One of my main concerns in traveling solo is what if something happens when I”m by myself? This could be anything from a car accident to a shower accident (my track record with international showers is not the greatest) to just getting things stolen. To give myself and my family some peace of mind, I find that it’s a good idea to purchase travel insurance for solo travel. (I also maintain clear communication with my parents, especially about where I am and what I am up to.)
