Outdoors & Adventure
Travelling
Plan your own trips, and the places you have been start forming a map
What makes it a hobby rather than an occasional holiday is that you build the trip yourself: visas, route, where to sleep, how to get around once you land. On a first solo trip abroad the exhausting part is usually not the language but that pile of small decisions. Cost is the real barrier, mostly flights and beds, which is why many people go less often and stay longer.
