How can I make friends while traveling alone?

Traveling alone can be a great opportunity to meet new people! Have you considered staying in hostels or joining group tours?

I haven't thought about hostels. What are the benefits?

Hostels are social places where you can meet fellow travelers. Many hostels organize events and activities that encourage interaction.

That sounds fun! What about meeting locals?

You can use apps like Meetup or Couchsurfing to connect with locals. They often host events or can show you around.

Great tips! Any advice on starting conversations?

Just be open and approachable! A simple 'Where are you from?' or asking for recommendations can break the ice.
