Why Travel Matters So Much for Single, Childfree People

There are just 8 spots left for our Morocco adventure in April 2026. And this isn’t just about checking a trip off your bucket list—it’s about living your life OUT LOUD.
As single and childfree people, we’re constantly bombarded with the idea that our lives are “on hold” until we reach a certain milestone: marriage, kids, or something that looks like the traditional script. But what if we stopped waiting?
What if we started living fully, unapologetically, right now?
That’s why travel is so powerful for us. It’s not just about where you go—it’s about what it means. Here are four reasons travel matters so deeply for single and childfree people:
1. Travel is proof that your Single & Childfree life matters now—not “someday.”
How many times have you said, “One day, I’ll take that trip”? I know I used to say it constantly. But “one day” kept slipping further away.
When my dad died suddenly, my world fell apart. I spent nearly a decade in what I call my sad girl era: grieving, going through the motions, never really living. Then came financial ruin and housing insecurity—I was down to $500 in my bank account at one point. I convinced myself that things like travel, joy, or adventure were luxuries I didn’t deserve.
But here’s the truth: there is no perfect time. Waiting for “someday” keeps us stuck. Travel gives us permission to stop postponing our lives. It’s the bold declaration that your life is worth celebrating right now. Not after you have a partner. Not after you buy a house. Not after you’ve done what society says you’re “supposed” to do. Right now.
2. Travel creates connection with people who actually get it.
One of the hardest parts of being single and childfree is that people around us often don’t understand our lives. Friends are wrapped up in kids’ schedules. Family members might not get why we don’t want the same milestones they had. Even when they love us, we can still feel like outsiders.
But imagine sitting in a rooftop restaurant in Marrakech with a table full of people who don’t need you to explain anything. People who understand what it feels like to live outside the script. People who won’t ask, “So when are you going to settle down?” or “Don’t you want kids someday?”
Instead, they’ll raise a glass with you, laugh with you, and share stories about living boldly in their own way. That kind of connection is rare—and travel creates the perfect container for it. When you travel with people who live this life too, you don’t just gain travel companions—you gain community.
3. Travel gives you space to reclaim joy.
After years of just surviving—working too much, hustling, grieving, giving to everyone but myself—I lost touch with joy. It became something for “other people,” people with easier lives or fewer losses.
But travel has this way of shaking you awake. When you’re walking through the colorful souks of Marrakech, hearing the call to prayer echoing at sunset, or riding a camel across golden dunes, you can’t help but feel alive. It strips away the routine, the stress, the monotony, and reminds you that your life is not just about getting through—it’s about living.
Travel isn’t just an escape. It’s a reclamation. It’s the moment you look yourself in the eye and say: “I deserve this. My joy matters. My life matters.”
4. Travel asks you to be vulnerable—and that’s where the magic happens.
Brené Brown says, “Vulnerability is the birthplace of connection.” And travel, at its core, is a deeply vulnerable act. It asks you to step outside your routine, away from your comfort zone, and into the unknown.
When you join a trip like this, you’re saying yes to showing up as you are—with your story, your scars, your dreams. And the beauty of it is that everyone else is doing the same. That’s why the people you meet on journeys like this don’t just become travel buddies—they become besties for life. You bond in a way that’s different from any other context because you’re experiencing something transformative, together.
Choosing to travel isn’t just about choosing adventure. It’s about choosing connection. It’s about allowing yourself to be seen and letting that openness turn strangers into soul-level friends.
This Morocco trip in April 2026 isn’t just about seeing a new country—it’s about rewriting the story you’ve been told about what your life “should” look like.
It’s about camel rides at sunset and rooftop dinners under the stars, yes—but more than that, it’s about reclaiming your joy, surrounding yourself with people who understand you, and proving to yourself that your single, childfree life is already extraordinary.
You don’t need to wait for permission. You don’t need to wait for a milestone. This is the milestone.
