As I sat there one night in Namibia, staring out at one of the most perfect sunsets I’d seen in a while, I realized why I never wanted to visit Africa alone. Sometimes the _____ of travel is not so beautiful when you don’t have someone to _____ it with. And there I was, staring out at this gorgeous _____ , and I was alone. I had no one to share that moment.
Sure, there was my tour group, but it’s not the same. Sharing a moment with people you have a bond with is much _____ from sharing it with strangers. Days later, I kept coming back to the _____ I felt at that moment. There was nothing wrong______ anyone on my tour-----they were all nice, polite, and talkative, and we got along well. But tours are _____ organized, and sometimes you closely _____ with people and sometimes you don’t. Dining alone may well be one most awkward times of solo travel. But like anything, the more you do it the more you get used to it.
And as I sat there looking at this beautiful sunset while zebra _____ from the nearby watering hole, a ___ hit me at the moment-----I am alone .And I am _____ it. While I’m an introvert(内向的人)and I like my “me” time, after 6.5 years, solo travel isn’t for me any longer. I no longer _____ to wander cities or gaze upon African sunsets alone. I want to _____ with people I know. I want_____ faces. I want to share moments. I make plenty of _____ on the road, but I’m tired of having to ______ in each new city.
I think everyone should travel alone at some point in their life; you _____ a lot about yourself by doing so. I never ____the solo travel I’ve done in the past and never felt alone or bored during those years, but Africa made it ______ that it’s time to move on to a new _____ of my life. I couldn’t hold onto the past any longer.
