Lessons Learned from My Solo Travel to Europe

As I unloaded my bags from my weeklong England & Iceland excursion, I chuckled at the mail that had arrived for me in my absence. On my pillow laid Essence Magazine’s June 2016 travel edition. It was this time last year that I was reading an Essence article that encouraged women to step out of their comfort zone and see the world, even if it meant doing so, solo! After reading that article, I was determined not to let another year pass before I did just that.
