The Best Places to Vacation Solo This Summer (If You Don’t Know Where to Go)

June 11, 2019
1Shares

Summer is here and it’s the perfect time to plan a solo vacation before it’s over. If you never planned a solo trip before, don’t worry I have all the info you need to plan. But, if you’re ready to plan, but just don’t where yet, keep reading about the best places to vacation this summer. You’ll find:

  • Which countries are best for your summer vacation
  • What you should do in the summer
  • How you can enjoy summer vacation alone

Where to go for summer vacation


Domestic – U.S.


Atlanta

Atlanta is great. Atlanta is fun. But, it’s also full and packed. If you’re about the festivals, food, music, and summertime, then pay this a nevermind. Well, until you’re stuck in traffic for an hour.

Summer Fests:

  • Juneteenth Atlanta Parade and Music Fest June 14th-16th
  • Caribbean Festival June 15th
  • Hot 107.9 Birthday Bash June 15th
  • Jazz Matters (series): June 21st, July 16th, August 19th
  • Freaknik Fest June 22
  • Cooler Fest June 29th
  • Roots Reggae Festival July 20th-21st
  • Like Glue Festival August 3rd
  • Piedmont Park Arts Festival August 17th-18th
  • Do I Ever Get Tired of Traveling So Much? My (Long) Answer to This Commonly Asked Question.
    Atlanta Weekend
  • Do I Ever Get Tired of Traveling So Much? My (Long) Answer to This Commonly Asked Question.
    One Music Fest

Atlanta offers much more than festivals, but also history. Visit the MLK National Park and Center


Washington D.C.

Curious about the nation’s capital? Even during one of the most bizarre governments run by a president? Considering all of that, I still think a trip to D.C. is worth your time. I’ve been twice and still haven’t accomplished or seen everything there is to see.

I recommend a visit to the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture because of its depth of information about African and African American history. Through the five floors of facts, artifacts, photos, videos, and harsh memories, I would allow a half a day to a full day of venturing through the exhibits. (I only had two hours to roam the museum and still needed a couple more hours). Of centuries of history, there will never be enough time to process and heal, especially as a descendant of African ancestry.

Psst...if you want to include this on your trip, you need to reserve your free ticket in advance. At least a few months. I know, I know, but it’s worth it. I promise.

Other places to visit: Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial, Smithsonian National Museum of African Art, Mary McLeod Bethune National Historic Site

Book a Free Walking Tour for more history and culture about the top tourist attractions around the city.

Recommended restaurants: Cuba Libre, La Tasca, Astro Doughnuts, The Dignitary, Slipstream, and Whole Foods 🙂


New Orleans

One of the greatest festivals happens in the middle of summer: Essence Fest. While it’s too late (well never say never) to find housing and tickets during the July 4-7th weekend, you might want to take a solo trip. Experience the rich culture and heritage in this vibrant city while it’s also packed with other visitors and Essence Fest attendees.

There is always something to do. If you’re lucky, you might hit up a day party with Mannie Fresh as the DJ. Eeoow! Or, you can bump elbows with celebrities at the convention center (free for everyone) or the many events happening around town during the day and night.

Whichever you choose, stay hydrated, come to slay (you never know if you’d get stopped by a photographer or writer for Essence), and live your most glorious life in N’orleans. Oh, you can catch a glimpse of the former first lady, Michelle Obama at this year’s 25th Essence Festival. Of course, if you’re not busy in dabbling into other adventures. 😉


International


Greece

Knock Knock⁣
Who’s there?⁣
Greece!⁣
Greece who?⁣
Are Greece and oil the same thing?

Sorry…it’s cheesy but funny eh? Ok, ok! I’m kinda missing Greece and this is my way to deal.

  • Athens, Greece
  • Strolling in Vessa, Chios Island
    Chios Island

Greece was amazing. I want a do-over and can’t wait to revisit.

Plan to travel around Greece for a minimum of one week or two. There’s so much to see and do, you won’t have time to add another summer destination onto your itinerary. Or at least, I don’t suggest it. (I spent two weeks hopping around Greece, Ghana, and Egypt and it was exhausting).

So, if you can, stay in Greece the entire time.

Recommended places: Athens, Chios Island, if you must then Santorini (it’s more touristy than Chios Island).

Recommended Activities: Airbnb photoshoot (Athens, Santorini), Chios Island Tours with Alios Tours, if you have an iron stomach and don’t get easily seasick, try day or night cruise in the Meditteranean.

Connect with your inner Greek Goddess. I did and had an amazingly Greeky time. Ok, enough of the jokes. 😉


Ghana

2019 marks the 400th year of the African Diaspora when the first slave ship arrived in America. It’s significant to the world which prompted my visit and subsequently my love for the country.

Preparing for Ghana is not as seamless as the rest of the places on this list. There are multiple steps before departure such as applying for a visa, getting vaccinated (Hep A & B), taking medicine before and after your trip (anti-malaria and typhoid), which are necessary steps to make traveling to Ghana relatively easy and harmless.

Note: Read the side effects of the medication before you take it. I know I suffered from diarrhea (Ewww) for about two weeks. More about that in another post.

The best part about Ghana? The people. I met Nana through Airbnb and I can’t tell you how much I fell in love with the woman hosting me and her home. Beautiful cannot even capture how truly amazing this experience was. Upon my arrival in Accra, my luggage was delayed. Egyptair took not one, not two, but THREE days to get my luggage to me. Beyond frustrated, I wanted to return home. But, Nana offered me some of her clothes until my luggage arrived. And, immediately I felt like I was home. Like I was visiting my auntie in Ghana.

I also met my tour guide, Junior through Ghana Tours, who helped me find some clothes for the days I was without fresh clothes (side-eyeing Egyptair). He negotiated prices on my behalf, taught me words in Twi, shared the history of the country with me and led me to some historic and very difficult places around the country.

Recommendations: Hire a private tour guide/driver to translate and negotiate for you; book an Airbnb to immerse yourself in the local culture, and select to pay an Uber driver in Cash (otherwise they’ll cancel your ride. Mmhmm tragic).


Barbados

Oh, the Caribbean! Barbados, one of my favorite places, is a go-to summer destination.

Wheww! Between the men people, food, beaches, and sites, you might extend your vacation by a couple of years days.

And, if you love being near water and Caribbean flavors, then plan your trip NOW! From May to August, Barbados celebrate their summer festivals and festivities, so anytime you go during this period you will be right in the middle of the fun, food, and fetes (parties). Though, the biggest week is August 1st-6th, Barbados Carnival/Crop Over.

For a more relaxing and quieter time, then visit: St. Nicholas Abbey, Cherry Tree Hill, Rihanna Drive, and Oistins Fish Fry

Recommendations: Hire a private driver


How you can enjoy summer vacation alone

  • Learn to trust yourself: You’ve lived with yourself for years. You know your likes, dislikes, and pet peeves. So, trust your instincts and your feelings and navigate your travels with that in mind. Don’t listen to anyone else, if you’re not listening to yourself first.
  • Alone doesn’t mean lonely: Whether you’re an introvert or extrovert (or ambivert), you can decide how social you want to be. Want to meet people? Use travel communities to meet others traveling around at the same time, go to public and safe places to chat with strangers, select a hotel or location that’s purposefully built to connect solo travelers. Or, book a quiet room near the water and be as content with silence as you want to be. Either way, it’s your vacation. Do as you please.
  • Learn from your mistakes: I’m all for preparing, maybe over-preparing, but you will make mistakes. Learn from them.
  • Show yourself Grace: When we make mistakes, especially while traveling, we get hard on ourselves. Stop! Don’t judge yourself harshly. You’re an imperfect person.

Looking for a solo travel guide or more tips on what to do in-country? If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to connect. Until next time!

Happy New Year!⁣ ⁣ Can't believe that we've ma Happy New Year!⁣
⁣
Can't believe that we've made it! ⁣
⁣
We've learned a lot about ourselves including how to live through uncertainty. Although we are making our way through the pandemic, here's my affirmation for 2021 that I want to share with you!⁣
⁣
Take a Leap of Faith⁣
⁣
Now, I know this seems mundane and unoriginal, but hear me out.⁣
⁣
After such a difficult year, I managed to see the light at the end of the tunnel, or rather the comfort through all of this chaos. ⁣
⁣
One of the ways I've been able to manage has been reading scriptures every morning before I get out of bed. FYI, this isn't to force religion on you. I'm sharing this because no matter if I was reading the daily prayer on my Bible App, reading content online, or watching TV the words "leap of faith" kept popping up. ⁣
⁣
I took that as a positive sign for the future. And although I can't predict the future, I can find strength and believe that my decisions and faith will get me through. ⁣
⁣
That's why I've leaned on this affirmation, which has given me hope for what's to come. ⁣
⁣
I hope you have an amazing first day of 2021 and that you find an affirmation to lean on this year too!⁣

Don't ever hide your coils, kinks, and curls….ev Don't ever hide your coils, kinks, and curls….ever!⁣
⁣
When I visited Nepal in 2018, I never felt insecure about my hair ever before. Nepal occupies 0.1% of the Earth's land space. Small is not even the word to describe them!⁣
⁣
Yet, I felt even smaller a few days into my trip. ⁣
⁣
At first, I proudly paraded my coily crown around Kathmandu and Pokhara. I might have been the only black person in the country besides Morgan Freeman who was visiting the Dalai Lama.⁣
⁣
Upon arriving at a small village, school children poked their heads out of their classrooms admiring us; drooling over the opportunity to touch Americans for the first time. ⁣
⁣
I realized 30 minutes into the visit that I wasn’t the object of their eyes. Instead, they hovered over the white couple like vultures scavenging for fresh prey.⁣
⁣
But it wasn’t them that bothered me so much. It was the former principal and his search for "truth." ⁣
⁣
He wanted to know “𝙒𝙝𝙮 𝙢𝙮 𝙝𝙖𝙞𝙧 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙨𝙤 𝙘𝙤𝙞𝙡𝙮?” and “𝙬𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙄 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙮 𝙛𝙧𝙤𝙢”. ⁣
⁣
Aha! - I thought. Could this be the reason why the children didn’t want anything to do with me???⁣
⁣
Apparently, I couldn’t have been from America because only white people occupy the continent.
⁣
We should acknowledge that people around the world are curious about blackness and are not inherently racist. But, that didn’t stop me from hiding my hair for the next few days.⁣
⁣
A day before I departed, I rediscovered why I went natural. Like being black in America, I have every right to be who I am in my most natural state. I couldn’t allow others to dictate the texture of my hair, my heritage, or my birthplace. ⁣
⁣
So this clip of my life is a reminder to never hide. Be you. Stay true. And I hope you share and show off your Fro-Journey for FrOtober! ⁣⁣

⁣
October is really FrOtober??⁣
⁣
Well, here’s a little history lesson:⁣
⁣
Tammy Facey, the Founder of Jim + Henry, created #FrOtober stating: “The history of the policing of black people's hair runs parallel with the history of repression itself. Thanks to the spotlight of the Black Lives Matter movement and literature acknowledging the rich history and texture of Afro hair, such as Emma Dabiri’s ‘Don’t Touch my Hair’, women in 2020 are learning more about their coily texture and celebrating it.”⁣
⁣
Can I get a…..Amen?⁣
⁣
How are you celebrating FrOtober?⁣

Yea, it took me nearly 30 years and I’m 32. ⁣

This week is Mental Health Awareness Week, which started yesterday and like many people, this time has been super difficult, including the loss of loved ones.⁣

On Monday, we celebrated International Day of Peac On Monday, we celebrated International Day of Peace. Its 2020 theme was “Shaping Peace Together.” ⁣
⁣
Instead of celebrating just one day to spreading compassion, kindness and hope in the face of the pandemic, why not make it a habit. ⁣
⁣
Everyday! ⁣
⁣
The shit we done been through this year warrants more than just a day to peace. We need all the peace we can get. ⁣

Caring about what other people think sucks!⁣ ⁣ Caring about what other people think sucks!⁣
⁣
And, what sucks even more is feeling guilty about not living up to their “standard.” ⁣
⁣
Then, feeling pressure to follow this path that you didn’t create for yourself even when your mind & body says STAWWWPP!!⁣
⁣
Sounds familiar?⁣
⁣
Then you feel inadequate which causes anxiety and more guilt.⁣
⁣
Then there’s this never-ending cycle of inadequacy, anxiety, and caring until the point of “F@*k this!” comes out your mouth.⁣
⁣
Are you at that point?⁣
⁣
Here’s a great quote via a Youtube Interview with Bri Babineaux:⁣
⁣
“I was concerned about other people’s opinions…but as I continued to go through this journey and path I began to not even care what anybody thought about me and what anybody had to say about me because at the end of the day you don’t have a heaven or hell to put me in.” ⁣
⁣
There’s no shame in living your life for you. If you agree, type “I’m living for me!”⁣

I’m always surprised at how many people say that they knew they were going to travel the world or loved before they were even able to.⁣

⁣
I only loved what was around me, including the languages I couldn’t speak.⁣
⁣
I miss connecting to the locals, communicating with them in their local tongue, and swaying along in the streets as nature seduces my thoughts (I love nature lol). ⁣
⁣
We often take the little things for granted. We woke up one day and all hell broke loose.⁣
⁣
Now, that we’re almost at the end of 2020 (and hopefully the pandemic), we can take a step back and reflect on our behaviors -the good & bad- and do better.⁣
