Exciting Solo Traveling to Kickstart Your New Life
Solo Traveling = Main Character Energy: A Free San Carlos Event for Adventurous Souls
If you’ve ever daydreamed about hopping on a plane solo and starting fresh somewhere new (like a total boss), you’re gonna want to check this out. On Wednesday, June 18, 2025, from 11:00AM to 12:30PM, San Carlos is hosting an inspiring talk called “Solo Traveling to Kickstart Your New Life” in Meeting Room A at the library.
Leading the adventure is Mary Bartnikowski, an award-winning photographer, globe-hopper extraordinaire, and author of six books. She’s been to 34 countries (yep, thirty-four!)—and she’s got the stories, the photos, and the travel hacks to prove it.
Here’s what’s going down:
- A jaw-dropping slideshow of Mary’s solo trips
- Pro tips on how to travel alone safely and confidently
- Ideas for where to go and how to start planning your own journey
- A chance to ask questions and maybe even sketch out your own bucket list
Why it’s cool
Solo travel isn’t just for Gen Z digital nomads—it’s for anyone who’s ready to break the routine, shake off the loneliness, and rediscover joy. This event is especially great if you’re 55+ and thinking, “Now what?”
So yeah, skip the Netflix and start plotting your real-life adventure. One plane ticket could change everything.
