I embarked on a month-long adventure through Europe at the age of 19. After finishing high school, I decided to explore 13 cities and 8 countries, starting in Lisbon. I faced some challenges, such as last-minute changes of plans and the stress of traveling alone, but I also had unforgettable experiences. Swimming in Croatia at sunset and biking through Rome in the early hours were moments I'll never forget. I met amazing people from around the world and grew tremendously outside my comfort zone. I encourage other women to travel solo, overcoming fears with attention and caution.
