Never-ending parties, cheap alcohol, drinking games, kissing strangers, lifelong friends (with names you don’t remember), nudity (lots of it), unchecked gregariousness and everything else? Well, that pretty much sums up my experience at Retox, a place that became home in a week’s time. By now, many ... Read More »

I’m just about beginning to grow old enough and wise enough to acknowledge that solo travel is full of challenges and can never be considered a piece of cake.
