Worried I Won't Travel After London!

Hey people I have a problem I'm worried about!
Couple of days before NYE I went to London with someone I did'nt know well I was ment to go with someone else I did know but he didn't show up. So I thought I'll still go and be spontanious. So I ended up in London In a Uni with 3 blokes I didn't know and I ended up having a aniexty attack in middle of the night couse I was so scared and wanted to go home.
Now I'm worried I won't be able to go traverling couse I was really scared In London or could be couse I was with 3 blokes I didn't know. I really want to go traverling but worried I'll be really scared when I'm out there because I do have fears like getting murdered or raped but got to get that out my head since it can happen anywhere.

 

If you are going to worry about minor stuff, you might want to mature a bit before you go anywhere too different. If, on the other hand, you realize that shit will happen anywhere - especially in a big city like London - you should be fine. But know that things do NOT work like you are used to out in the big world. Western society is a very "safe" and comfortable place where you can rely on schedules and so on. And there is no language barrier.

But those are great reasons to go traveling, not the other way around. And even if you do worry a lot, you will likely do less of it when you come back, after having realized time and again that it doesn't really matter if the bus isn't on time or if they gave you the wrong meal because they didn't understand you, etc. You will grow as much in one month of traveling as a year or more of living in western society.

Furthermore I would recommend traveling alone. And if you must travel with someone, don't do so with a close friend or boy/girlfriend. Chances are good the prolonged proximity will strain the relationship and you will lose that friend.

 

what the hell scared you? =S

This is even more confusing than the OP

I just know all those horror stories I've heard about honeymoons ending marriages and families splitting apart after vacationing

 

When someone says "traveling" I assume they are talking about something more than a two week holiday.

I have met countless people who went traveling with best friends and girl/boyfriends and those relationships were destroyed.

 

Why Is It couse they spent to much time with each other or what?

 

Travelling is grand man, was sleeping in hyde park and in squats when I was in London during the summer and had a savage time, met loads of dead on people. Travelling alone is better for the travelling aspect as you don't have to be tied down with what others want to do/go.

Might as well stay in London for a bit if you've no other plans. Camden and Brixton are pretty cool places, hitching down to Dover for the ferry is a pain in the arse but easily do it in a day then the ferry to France is only a tenner.

If you're not capable of travelling through you're own initiative then best to leave it for a while or find someone else to go with I'd say.

 

Yeah I think I'm gonna leave it for abit but I do fancy traverling on my own. I like to do alot of things on my own, I always do when I go to festivals. x
