I realized there is a double-edged sword when it comes to Asperger's and traveling.
On one hand, since Aspies struggle socially we are less likely to have "travel buddies".
On the other hand, traveling by ourselves is potentially overwhelming in general and you often must rely interacting with other people for help when in a far away place.
Seems like it's hard to imagine a way around this. To me, the very idea of planning a trip sounds daunting. Maybe that's what's really holding me back, but also the other problems I mention above. Any thoughts or ways to simplify travel?
