Hello Fellow Travelers
My name is Belinda, aka Bee 🐝
I set off initially on a self discovery journey, resigning from my job in corporate, with all intentions of writing a book, but instead here I am writing a blog!
I went to a game lodge in the Pilanesburg on my own a few times. And although I was alone, organized games drives and all meals included, means I was around people quite a bit. I call it ‘comfort’ solo traveling.
Later that year I was invited to go camping with my friends at the Vaal River, and the trip, which should have been 2 hours ended up being 6, due to an incorrect pin location. (Shhhh, he’ll never admit he was wrong)
That single drive taught me so much:
- I was capable of driving on my own for 6 hours
- I needed a car charger for my phone
- Potholes are a real thing in South Africa
- And I must learn how to change a flat tyre
So I figured if I could drive 6 hours on my own with all these factors against me, surely I can travel South Africa solo!
I bought a canon camera, a book called Hit the Road, and did my first solo trip in July 2022.
Yours in travel
Bee 🐝
