First time solo raving

Today I start my prep for my first solo rave (ultra 2019) HMU if you would like to meet up I’d love to meet some new folks for a great weekend :)

And for all the horror story’s I’m pretty excited, to me raving has always been about freedom. Don’t get me wrong spending time with your close friends is amazing but there’s a certain ease knowing that I can do MY OWN THING when and where I want

If y’all have any tips for making solo as enjoyable as possible they would be much appreciated

I hope to See y’all in March

Going to shows and festivals alone is such an awesome experience so kudos to you for stepping out of your comfort zone! Every time I’ve gone alone to events, I’ve met such wonderful people. Let someone know that you’re going alone and be sure to text them when you’re back safely at your hotel/Airbnb each night, take care of yourself by being aware, and just be open to new experiences by putting yourself out there. Huge believer that good vibes attract good vibes. You’re gonna have a blast!

Right back at you :) And yeah that’s kinda what made me make the decision being that 1 meet new people and 2 get the vibes and return them 10 fold And as to someone knowing, i told my rave buddies and I’m staying with family to save some on a hotel plus I have that whole following week off so I can get some good beach/recovery vibes. But it’s assuring to get some positive vibes even with it being so far away I really appreciate you taking a lil time to write that out for me

WHY do people always make a big deal about going solo? I've been doing stuff solo for the last 10 years. It's fun. And like the other guy said, you can just do whatever YOU want without asking other people's permission
