ExtraVirgin Travel


May 21, 2019

No one to travel with but you really, really want to do it? This episode of ExtraVirgin may just provide the impetus you need to get going.

Ben Groundwater, travel writer, The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age columnist, travel podcaster and author of Go Your Own Way: Hacks, Tips and Tricks to Travel the World Solo, has been travelling and writing for publications worldwide for the last 12 years and estimates he’s visited "around 80 or 90" countries. Often, those trips have been made on his own.

We chat with Ben (who recently relocated from Sydney to Spain's San Sebastián) on topics such as:

  • The pleasure and possible pain points of travelling on your own
  • His favourite (and least favourite) places to travel alone
  • Great solo itineraries
  • How to stay safe, avoid scams and have the experience of a lifetime.
