So I've been a Travelpunk "lurker" for probably 2 years now, I have my first trip to Europe booked and I'm soooo excited. I will be going to Spain, France, Italy, Greece and Cyprus for a month in July. Thanks for all the great advise I've read on here already. I'm going solo and a little nervous even though it seems just about everyone here is a huge fan of solo travel. I'm sure you'll see a lot more posts from me now!

WELCOME!!!
Don't worry, even though I say traveling solo is the best - I still get a little nervous when on my own!

Welcome out of lurkerdom! 
May we see more of you around, and have a great time in Europe! I'm getting the first solo travel jitters too, but I'm sure it will be awesome.

Welcome! Traveling solo is great! On my first trip I was scared for a bit but met cool people and kept rolling!
