It’s great to have other people with you on adventures and trips, but you don’t have to! Sometimes the most peaceful and enjoyable times are spent alone.

But sometimes the challenge is deciding what to do. While it’s always a fun idea to plan a long weekend in another city/state to visit roadside attractions, museums, etc , that isn’t always an option. What do you do then?

Read on for some great ideas!

10 Things to do Alone

1. Find a local Restaurant you’ve never been to and visit for your next meal
2. Make a Time Capsule – all you need is a container and a handful of things that represent the current time and your current life. Photos, newspaper articles, or a letter written to yourself or your children.
3. Read a book or listen to an audio book in the Park.
4. Find a local nature trail that you haven’t visited and go for a hike
5. Visit a Local Museum
6. Go see a Movie
7. Create or Add to Your Bucket List
8. Take an Online Class
9. Write a letter to someone you love
10. Visit the 5 closest Roadside Attractions – find them with this App (take pics and share!)
11. Geocaching – this is fun alone and with friends!

The Newest Addition to My List – The Adventure Challenge Book

If you are looking for even more unique and engaging ideas, give The Adventure Challenge Book (Solo Edition) a try. I just recently purchased it and have so far only done one challenge but am so excited to do more.

The “no take backs, you have to do it no matter what” rules of the game provides a little pressure to the challenge, while the icons next to the scratch off secret challenges give you an idea of when to scratch off (or not to scratch off) each challenge. For example whether you need to be indoors due to weather, or whether to avoid water. Which I um…didn’t do my first challenge LOL.

But the best part of all, is the room for notes, and a photo, which turns the Adventure Challenge Book into a scrapbook of memories.

For a look at my first Solo Adventure Challenge, check out this reel I made.

They also have a Couples Edition and Family Edition, as well as bundles that include a camera.

Do you like to travel and explore solo? What are your favorite things to do alone?

As the days get shorter, and the cold starts setting in what better way to get ready for the start of fall than Halloweekends at Cedar Point?

From the pumpkin spice and everything nice, to jeepers creepers is that the grim reaper you will find it all. Along with a bunch of Haunted Houses and all of your normal Cedar Point fun.

I initially thought I would try to come up with the words to describe a visit on Halloweekends, but I figured my pictures and videos from past visits would do it better justice. So the below video is what I came up with instead!
