MUST-KNOW Safety Tips for Solo Traveling
Traveling alone might seem intimidating but it doesn't have to be. These are the top tips for solo traveling, from the perspective of a solo female traveler.
❁❁Please subscribe to my channel:
I've been a nonstop traveler for almost 5 years now. However, after splitting with my ex, that put me on a new trajectory as a solo female traveler. So for the past 1.5 years, I've been traveling alone, and let me tell you...traveling solo comes with a whole new set of challenges and risks.
Therefore I really want to share what I've learned about staying safe and avoiding danger while traveling alone. In this video I'll cover topics like:
- When and how to share my location when traveling
- Best practices when it comes to your cellphone
- Tips for avoiding sketchy situations (and how to get out of them)
- What to do in restaurants when you're alone
- How taking pictures and videos can keep you safe
- Wardrobe while traveling
- Best practices when taking Ubers/taxis/personal transportation
- How to change your body language to reduce risk
- What to do when someone's asking uncomfortable questions
- Should you carry a weapon while traveling alone?
- more!

I flew into Minsk at the beginning of October and was on one of the only two flights arriving on that day. I was eligible for a 30-day visa-free as long as I enter and exit the country through Minsk International airport. I booked a $19 room in a shared apartment with a window overlooking the train passed by.
The first 48 hours of my solo travel were merely observing and absorbing this new environment. I would be lying if I said I wasn't nervous or anxious about coming to Belarus. I sensed fear in me, from the news that I consumed while researching and the uncertainty that came along with it. While fear is important to keep us alert, I know that every country has different layers to unravel. Through my solo travel, I hope to showcase the other side of Belarus.

ABOUT ME:
Hello there, welcome to this channel!
I am an Indonesian female solo traveler, who started solo traveling in 2013. After working for the government till 2016, I left Indonesia to pursue full-time traveling and to document myself as I explore different cultures as a solo female.
Having initially traveled for 5 months throughout Asia, I moved to China in January 2017 for an English teaching job, which was my first experience living abroad.
Since leaving China in 2018, I have taken the move to become a full-time YouTube creator and traveler. I strive to create unique, culture-driven content and capture authentic interactions as I travel.
