Is 35 too old to go travelling?

Is 35 too old to go traveling? Seriously?! Of course not! I mean, 35 is practically still young, right? I know people who’ve started backpacking around the world at 40, 50, even later! Thirty-five is a fantastic age to travel, especially solo.

Speaking of solo travel – that’s where it’s at, especially at 35. Think about it: you’ve probably got a decent amount of life experience under your belt by then, enough to know what you like and don’t like. You’re more likely to have the resources to actually do it too. My cousin, Sarah, she turned 35 last year and took off for Southeast Asia for three months – all by herself! Came back a completely different person, so much more confident and… centered, I guess? She’d always been kind of hesitant before, you know? Always letting other people dictate the itinerary. This time, it was all her. Temples in Thailand, street food in Vietnam… she even learned to scuba dive in the Philippines! Who knew? It’s like solo travel unlocks something in you. That freedom to wander, to change your plans on a whim, to just be… it’s pretty magical. And honestly, sometimes you need that space to figure things out, you know what I mean? I remember this one time I went hiking in the Rockies by myself… needed to clear my head after a particularly nasty breakup. Just me, the mountains, and a whole lot of soul-searching. Didn’t cure everything, but it definitely helped. So, yeah, 35? Too old to travel? Don’t even think like that! It might just be the perfect time.
