Do you find travelling alone a daunting experience? Or do you prefer the freedom of being independant and free to explore at your own pace?
Is it better to travel with a partner? Family? Friends?

I've found that travelling alone can provide many more opportunities to meet new people, especially in backpacker/hostel situations where you're kind of forced to make new friends, which is great - getting a new perspective of the place you're in, travel tips etc. Then again, being with a friend or friends is always comforting but can get frustrating when opinions on what to do clash. When it comes down to it, I guess it all depends on the person you'd be travelling with and your personalities!
