I have only ever done solo trips, unless you count jumping trains with my friends as a teen. I was in the foster system and mostly raised myself on the streets, so I was all over the place(California). My first trip out of the country was to Mexico at the age of 16 or 17. I felt fine. My first major trip wasn’t until I was in my 30s because 1. I didn’t have the funds and 2. I was tied down. I missed the plane the first two times, so that was a bummer and a lot of wasted money, but 3rd times a charm. I’ve been all over Europe since then.

I started traveling all over the USA by myself in my 20s. Before that, I had been traveling all over California by myself.

How the heck is Germany calculated higher than Sweden??
