No Friends, No Perspective and Nothing to Look Forward to - the Downsides of Solo Traveling

Today I cover a serious topic about loneliness while solo traveling. Sometimes it happens and it is a normal feeling. Usually, it doesn’t last long because meeting people while traveling happens naturally. However, the pandemic changed the rules for that, and I ended up in a situation where I somehow lost the joy in traveling.
I found myself without a plan what to do next and craving for some socializing. After some days down I luckily could solve my problem step by step. I hope this video helps people in similar situation realize that the feeling of loneliness is normal and that you can overcome it by focussing on a possible solution and just go one step at a time from that.

I found it quite helpful to know how great TH-cam videos were made so I wanted to share what equipment I use. Perhaps I can also inspire someone to start her/his own channel.

It sounds like you were facing depression. Congratulations and respect for finding your way out of it.
btw, if any other viewers are feeling symptoms of depression, just remember that you're not alone. Reach out to a crisis line if you need to.

I say this as a bc resident, but why don't you become Canadian? You seem like the right kind of person to live here
