When you come to a strange city alone, the most exciting thing is that you will never be able to foresee what will happen in the next second! Maybe you will fall in love with the city at first sight, or it will make you feel a little bored. Like it or not, everything that happens to you is the best moment in your trip!
Italian food is also not to be missed. Go to TripAdvisor and include authentic restaurants in your itinerary!

You first arrive in a strange city, you will definitely look down at the mobile phone map ten times in one minute, for fear of taking the wrong path. Anyone knows that you are nervous and embarrassed. Remember to have confidence in yourself!

Instead of spending time worrying about losing your passport or fearing that your booking is out, it is better to use these worrying time to enjoy your own trip.

Dear, the little fairy who travels alone should book a private hostel or rent a house. While protecting her privacy, she can still meet other travelers and locals around you.
