"How I Learned to Love Solo-Travel" by Cate Huston

            “How I Learned to Love Solo-Travel” is a blog about the author’s past experiences travelling solo. Not only is this an educational narrative but it’s also a travel guide. There are bullet points throughout the blog providing tips to the reader on how to make travelling alone easier. Tips such as, “stay somewhere comfortable”, “morning/afternoon/evening – pick two”, and “it’s not the trip, it’s a trip”, I know are all good tips based on my own personal experience. I have been on trips before where just about every minute of our trip was planned out, starting early in the morning and ending late at night. Now while this does allow you to do much more of the touristy things it is exhausting and not very relaxing. So I definitely could relate to the advice she gave and strongly agree with it. 
            The fact that this blog gave advice is similar to some of the previous ones we have read because they also gave advice. In “How I Learned to Program Computers” Feross tells the reader if you want to learn computer programming then just start building stuff and take some computer programming classes. In “How I learned to Live Google Free” Romero tells the reader which websites he thought were good replacements, or even the ones he thought were better than Google.
