Imagine relaxing by the beach with a beer in your hand and gazing at the horizon as the sun sets changing the colors of the sky! You can hardly ever enjoy quiet sunsets when you visit Goa with friends, family or partners. But when you’re alone, you see how magical it really is.

And also about taking a walk on the beach

True, taking a walk on the beach holding hands with your loved one is special. But every once in a while, you should also be able to take a walk all by yourself to enjoy the breeze brushing past your face and the wind blowing in your hair.

Hostel life in Goa is quite awesome!

And finally, Goa is home to some amazing hostels like Roadhouse hostel in Anjuna, where you get a bed for around Rs 500 per night.

So, for your next trip to Goa, resist the temptation to invite your friends and just take off alone. You won’t regret it.
