I started taking solo trips for my birthday years ago. Now that I'm in my 40s, it's my favorite way to celebrate.

I don't like organizing parties or events, and planning a trip for more than two people is stressful. So, a birthday solo trip is perfect.

My mom and I live across the world from each other. We connect by traveling together to bucket-list places every year.

My partner and I give each other 'jobs' when we travel. It makes our trips easier and more fun.

I plan the small details of our couple trips. In exchange, my partner handles all of the maps and navigation — it's a win for us both.
