If you have ever felt the desire to travel and you have no one to accompany you, or you have stopped taking a trip for fear of traveling alone and you would like to be like women who travel alone but you do not know where to start, we want to tell you a story .

At BALIBUTA we understand you, since we have also been there. We have also felt that call to go out into the world, and at the same time, the tremendous fear of doing it on our own. In fact, it is precisely for this reason that we exist! Because we want you to start opening your wings and there is nothing and no one in the world to stop you.

But, how to lose the fear of traveling alone?

In this article we want to share a little bit of our beginnings, what is behind each BALIBUTA trip and what we want to convey to people, but above all, to the women of the world.

Women who travel alone: our story

If you already know us, you know that BALIBUTA is the way we have found to deliver love through travel. An agency that, above all, seeks to create meaningful experiences that contribute to the world and to all the people who are part of them.

This concept was born from the hand of our founder, Paulina Vallejos. Like many women, La Pau experienced her own crisis and when she was 30 years old, she suffered a profound breakdown that shook everything she believed in and wanted from life. This is how she, a few years later, embarked on a journey that would transform not only her life, but that of all the people who are part of the BALIBUTA community today.

Her passage through the island of Bali in Indonesia, and Bhutan, the kingdom of happiness in the middle of the Himalayas, would define what would be her future. Although unknowingly at the time, these two places marked the identity that to this day is preserved in the genesis of BALIBUTA: love, connection and respect.

At first, before starting her journey, La Pau, like many women who make the decision to change the course of their lives, felt afraid. And it is that before embarking on an unknown adventure there is fear, it is inevitable. The important thing is not to let it paralyze us, because fear can also be the starting point for a change that redirects our path towards new, much brighter whereabouts.

Everything in life can be a channel to mobilize and get out of that place that keeps us stuck. Above all, a trip.

Thus, and without giving it much more thought, Pau became one of those women who travel alone, the ones she admired and who had inspired her so much to start her own journey. They spent several months crossing countries and continents, getting to know new cultures, cults and beliefs that remain with her to this day, and incorporating, every day, new bonds of friendship with people who, at the same time, make her eyes and hearts open. .

Like Pau, we know that there are many women who dream of rediscovering, rethinking and looking at themselves again with admiration and courage. Who question their reality and seek to find new ideas and concepts that make them feel, beyond what they have learned.

Who want to create new bonds, find friends and never feel lost again in a life that seems, rather, to pass them by.

You too can transform into those women who travel alone. Here we help you.

Traveling in a group: the first step to traveling solo

How many times have we faced that moment in which we want to travel, but no one manages us. All the friends who once promised to join, finally leave him behind. Or you just can’t match the times. And how many times, for that same reason, have we postponed the desire, postponed the dreams and finally, resigned.

To give you a new opportunity is that our group trips were born. Probably the best way you will find to travel alone, but in truth, without ever being alone.

A group trip would be like the first step for women who travel alone, because believe it or not, it is totally liberating. Facing a group of unknown people with no greater interest than enjoying and sharing is like being born again. And it is that there are no judgments, powers or duties to fulfill. We are all there for a common interest: the love of traveling.

On a group trip you will find a new version of yourself, and above all, you will find friends for life. Because the intensity that is experienced on a trip has nothing to do with the life we lead day by day. The connections made on a trip are unique and different, and they are preserved through time and live in us forever.

For this reason, group tours will always be the heart of BALIBUTA. Because they give you wings and help you fly.

And it is that we know so many travelers that after having been part of a group trip, they later dared to travel alone. So many that have continued traveling to other destinations with their previous travel companions, and many for whom this experience of 10, 12, or 15 days changed their lives forever.

It is for them that we continue. For the strength that their stories give us and for how nice it is to see them in each rebirth. Because tomorrow it will be you, one of those women who travel alone.

Live the experience and be part of our group trips!
