I woke up early that day to get ready for office. I had to give a presentation to some business partners coming from overseas. Being a corporate girl of age 26, I am the person of a free spirit who is not restrained as with convention or obligation. Most of the time of the day I want to live omnipotent. Nevertheless that morning I had to put some make-up. As that was not my day (anyway I hardly found my day to be omnipotent at work) I didn't have the option to look frumpy or dowdy, I had to put coat along with a tie to impress them. My hairstyle was curly thanks to my stubborn boyfriend, he adores me curly.
Alas! My interview preparation for promotion was also pending, a date for the same was yet to announce though I had to prepare in advance. In the meantime, I saw an image at mirror in-front of me. Here I saw a person who looked dull, upset and in pressure. I thought I had dedicated my life to impress others. My hairstyle, makeup, dressing and grooming everything was under influence by a third person. I forgot myself to make others satisfied.
Time had come for me to step out of home to roam around some destinations that were calm, serene and natural. I was not planning very first time to go out. There was plenty of time I had hit the destination along with family, friends and of-course with Samir. I still remember when I was with him on that Trip and I had to roam curled hair most of the time, I had to subdue my urge for seafood as he was vegetarian and hiding my emotion to sit for a long time with waves I had to do adventure sports.
We enjoyed there, we tasted a variety of food, we had done adventure. After coming back home, looking at memory we clicked in mobile, I went in flashback- Did I actually do what I wanted, Did I actually eat what I had, was that trip according to my wish and eventually, was I satisfied or not. Subsequently, answers to all those questions I got was "No" a big no. Despite doing so many things I was still missing that WOW feeling. I was still missing that omnipotent and free spirit Zoya in me. I again want to hit a destination, BUT ALONE! The first solo trip of my life. This time I don't want to dress to impress others, I don't want to present myself artificial.

This time I don't want to dress to impress others, I don't want to present myself artificial.
I want to sit near the beach, feel the cares of the wave at my cheeks, want to sit in the lap of nature at a calm and serene Island. Want to eat what I wish and want to make my favourite hairstyle, want to wear what I wish and again want to be a free Zoya, eventually, it's all about having an attitude.This trip will only for me, there I will be with me. I will meet a new Zoya. Its a time to self-introduce and to get the pleasure of being self. It will be a journey to discover true self. I have never known a person to always have the right motivation. There will be a purity, naivety perhaps but there will be the only soul around me that is me................
There is one Zoya is residing in every one of us. She wants to be free of everything, she wants to take her own decision at least for a few days, she wants to be with herself and wants to be free of (Log kya kahenge) what people will judge in you. We all need to meet that one, need to Spend time with her and need to talk to her about her desire. To know, what she wants from life? What is her true happiness? and what we are giving her instead. To know about your true self you have to meet on your own, spend time with you only and talk to you only.
Being a social animal we remain connected with people around us, whether personally or through MEN EATER applications in mobile. It is not possible to search true-self, sitting at home. So to meet your true self and to feel the calmness and serenity of nature you have to pack travel bag.
But this time stuff must be of yours only, no one else to screw-up your uniqueness (Yes, it is the correct word, we all are unique and you become unique in true sense when not in the influence of others).
Benefits of going alone-
Spend on you only-
We plan to go in a company with others and split costs. Though we split cost yet we have to pay for the things we did for the sake of others subduing personal interest. But on the solo trip, you only pay for the thing you do only for you, according to your own interest.
A chance to face different people-
At solo trip, you get enough chance to meet new people. But when you travel in a group you spend the entire time with people you are already known with. In that case too, if one tries to mingle with outsider then the possibility is there that her own company might dislike that.
Opportunity to learn new things-
New place with new people gives you ample of chance to learn new things, new custom, culture and habits. Building connection with new people can benefits you in future too. You can have an opportunity to get a job in their country with their help.
Opportunity to meet yourself-
You can meet yourself by going alone. In isolation you talk to yourself and become able to evaluate what exactly you need from life and what you are getting till now, how much satisfied or unsatisfied are you with life or work.
Do the activity that interests you-
Going alone gives you full freedom to take your own decision, so you are free to roam at your favourite destination and free to do an activity that you like. There is no need for any compromise for others.
Wear what you like-
Going in a group or with family bound you for dressing. But at the solo trip, you don’t need to worry about such kind of stuff.
No need to look-after companion
Once you are alone you are free of the responsibility of taking care of any companion on the trip.
