I've visited 35+ countries over the past 14 years or so, many more than once, and almost always as solo traveller. I usually organise my trips entirely by myself and generally use public transport to explore. :-)

Andalucía: Southern Spain in April and Easter
First of all, it isn't Easter or Holy week just in Seville so you can, and should, expect to encounter events, crowds and very probably processions in pretty much every Spanish city, town and village. You also need to be aware that roads may... See More

'Best' is always a matter of personal preference. Personally, I'd just take the fast ferry from Holyhead to Dublin then the bus to Galway. Straightforward, safe, efficient and comfortable enough. No method... See More
Ireland: First Time Traveler: What Is the best way to plan a trip to Ireland?
I assume you already have a US passport? If not, that's the first thing to organise. Don't book anything until you've got one. Decide what time of year you want to go. Costs of flights and accommodation are higher from May... See More
London: Best credit card with no foreign transaction fees?
