My friend，Amy，once said to me， "Travelling alone is a life-changing experience." I travelled alone a lot when I was in my early 20s and I loved it.The experiences of travelling alone make me more adventurous（有冒險(xiǎn)精神的）.I think everyone should try at least once in their lives.Now I'm married.I go everywhere with my husband and it's just not the same.The feeling of being on an adventure has gone.I miss travelling alone.
    I then thought of my first solo（單獨(dú)的） trip to South America.I went to South America and stayed there for six months.I find having holidays with other people is not as exciting as travelling alone.I don't meet adventures with them but I can experience a lot alone.When travelling by myself，I can choose from minute to minute what I will do next.I can visit a place that I didn't plan to see before.I can go there without having to agree with anyone first.I try to solve all my problems by myself and I become more independent（獨(dú)立的）.
    However，there is just one thing that is not so good for me.I always hope that the places I will visit have good hotels and safe transport routes（路線）.So every time before I begin my solo trip，I have to make sure if the hotel is good or the transport routes are safe.
