Why I do a solo trip for my birthday?

I have friends and family ask why I go on solo trips especially during my birthday and the answer is I am a failure.

When a birthday goes by I think about how much of a failure I am, this blog post isn’t for people to feel sorry for me but to let people understand me plus there might be people feeling the same.

I don’t want to celebrate my birthday, what is there to celebrate? This birthday I turned 29, I still live at home with my parents in the box room,  have to get public transport because I haven’t passed my driving test, no boyfriend, fiancé or husband, trying to get my business to be a success but still not able to quit my day job and support myself through Maude & Noah.

What is there to celebrate? So I go away to treat myself, so nobody can sing happy birthday to me, for people not to watch me open presents and me feeling awkward because I am grateful for the gifts but there a few people who buy for me and just don’t get me.
