How to Meet People While Traveling Solo

How to meet people while traveling solo⁠ ✨⁠ Maybe you’ve heard the saying “traveling solo doesn’t mean you’re alone” — and it’s true! If you're in the mindset to meet people, there are many ways to make friends on the road, like:⁠ 👇⁠ Hangout in popular social spots — like known bars that travelers frequent⁠ 🍻⁠ Stay in social accommodations like hostels (you can still book a private room) or share house-style @Airbnb rentals⁠ 🛌⁠ Book walking tours + social experiences like cooking classes and group dinners (@EatWith is awesome!)⁠ 🥘⁠ Use @Couchsurfing forums and city-specific Facebook groups to find and plan local meetups⁠ 🎉⁠ Join travel communities like @Wanderful, @GirlsLoveTravel + @SoloFemaleTravelersClub⁠ 🎒⁠ If it’s a longer trip, utilize @Meetup to join niche groups and meet likeminded people (when I spent 6 weeks in Devener, I joined a yoga Meetup and ended up with a great group of girlfriends for the trip!)⁠ 🧘‍♀️⁠ Utilize co-working spaces if you're a digital nomad⁠ 💻⁠ Download solo travel apps like ⁠@SoloTrvlr_ (launching soon)⁠ 🤸⁠ Of course, you may *choose* to be alone — I love those kind of trips too — but that is a whole other post.⁠ 😉⁠ How do you meet people while traveling solo? 🌍#BeyondTheGuidebook⁠
