Planned a solo trip to challenge/learn more about myself. Ended up meeting someone organically and clicked instantly. Crazy how someone across the world had so much in common with me. We spent the next 2 weeks together. I felt a little rushed during my trip and a little bit like I betrayed myself by allowing someone to join what was supposed to be a solo thing. Now that I've done everything I realize that I should've appreciated our time together more. They were so wonderful and honestly the people I met in my journey were the real highlight of the trip - not the destination. It really sucks that I may not see them ever again but we agreed if we were from the same country we would've definitely ended up together. I really hope one day we meet again. It's insane how you can bond with someone so much and may never see that person again. Any tips going forward? And if you're ever in the same position as me don't make the same mistake. Be present and appreciate the moment. Through this experience, I learned so much about myself that I probably couldn't have alone.
