🇲🇾 22 Years Old & Solo Flying to Indonesia 🇮🇩✈️
My second solo trip ever went to Medan, Indonesia—and it was absolutely EPIC! 😍✨ 🔥 Why It Was Insane: Packed just a 7kg backpack 🎒 (true minimalist style!). Went specifically to hike an active volcano for sunrise 🌋☀️ (Bucket list: Solo mountain/volcano trek abroad—CHECK!) 🌋 The Hidden Gem: Mount Sibayak Before this trip, I scoured Xiaohongshu but found almost nothing about Medan—just endless Bali/Bromo content. BUT GUYS—Medan has volcanoes too! 📍 Mount Sibayak offers: Unreal sunrise views (worth every 3AM step!). Fewer crowds, raw adventure vibes. Bonus: Post-hike, hit Lake Toba for the freshest fish meals 🐟😋 (obsessed!). 💡 Solo Traveler Tips: Medan = Underrated! Stunning nature, delicious food, and so budget-friendly. No guides? No problem! Trails are manageable solo (but research well!). 🌟 Final Verdict: "Life’s too short—add Medan to your list!" #Indonesia #Medan #SoloTravel #MountSibayak #AdventureTravel #LakeToba #TravelLessExplored #BackpackingAsia #VolcanoHike
