So I been wanting to travel to places in my country(USA). Places like NYC, LA, Las Vegas, Miami, Boston, DC, and even at some point Tokyo, or Paris. However my family ( mainly my mom ) does not want me to travel solo. Now don’t get me wrong I understand why they have concerns and worries especially as a young black man. Tho at the same time I want to travel and while I do understand their concerns I still want to see the country while I’m still young, and have a job with a ton of days off( it’s a 2 2 3 schedule) and don’t know how long this opportunity will last. Now I’m pretty sure some of you are wondering why not take some like a friend or family with me. Well as far as friend I don’t have a huge ton of them and the ones I do have don’t just have the means to just up and leave for week to go someplace. However the main reason I want to travel solo is because I hate traveling with people. This wasn’t much of a problem when I was kid/teen but I’m an adult now and want to do my own thing. The trip that broke the camel’s back was a trip to Las Vegas with my mom. Now don’t get wrong I love my mom but I fucking hated that trip , and not because of Las Vegas itself. I loved Las Vegas from the lights, food, music, the vibe, not to mention I’m a mountain biker and the whole city is surrounded by mountains and deserts. The problem I had with this trip was my mom. She wouldn’t let me drive the rental car that I help pay for, if we were out of the hotel room I had to be with her 24/7, and beside this one group MTB ride I did, we basically did what she wanted to do. And that’s the reason I want travel solo. I always just ended doing what someone else want to do. So how can I get my family to let me travel solo?
