Learning to enjoy my own company while dining has been one of the most liberating parts of solo travel. I used to worry about being judged for eating alone but now I pull up like, “table for one, please!” without waiting on anyone to join.

Dining solo wasn’t always easy—there was a time when I hated being alone. But travel taught me to value my presence. I order what I want, take my time, people-watch, and just vibe. I’ve had some of my best meals (like this one at misturarestaurant in SLO visitslo —legit the best Peruvian food I’ve had outside of Peru) all by myself and with zero regrets.

Tips for eating solo like a boss:

1. Bring a book or journal if you’re nervous—it helps.

2. Sit at the bar or by a window for the best people-watching.

3. Don’t overthink it—most people aren’t paying attention like you think they are.

4. Order something new (or do like me and order everything).

If you’re hesitant to try it: do it anyway. Your own company is a whole vibe. Don’t wait on anybody. Go eat the food!!
