An O-C actually doing the traveling is a terrifying prospect; we are far too circumscribed and self-regulated to accomplish the planning, get on the planes, find our accommodations at our destinations, and actually enjoy the process. Fold in introversion, and you've got a crippling combination. Solo travel? Forget it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTravel for STOICs\u003c\/em\u003e is both a travel book and a survival manual, but of a different sort. It's not about which great restaurants to patronize or what sites are a must-see in a given place; it's about how to master solo travel challenges that happen in between those activities while successfully managing your O-C, introverted self. This book is especially for the STOIC--the \u003cstrong\u003eS\u003c\/strong\u003eolo \u003cstrong\u003eT\u003c\/strong\u003eraveler: \u003cstrong\u003eO\u003c\/strong\u003ebsessive, \u003cstrong\u003eI\u003c\/strong\u003entroverted, \u003cstrong\u003eC\u003c\/strong\u003eompulsive--and for those who care about our well-being and happiness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThroughout \u003cem\u003eTravel for STOICs\u003c\/em\u003e, you'll find quotes borrowed from three of the ancient Stoic greats: Epictetus, Seneca, and Marcus Aurelius. You'll discover contemporary concepts embedded in the ideas of the ancient Stoics and helpful advice to contend with challenges that arise during present-day travel. For all of our STOIC quandaries, nothing beats the wisdom of our Stoic triumvirate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTravel for STOICs\u003c\/em\u003e is \u003cem\u003ethe\u003c\/em\u003e book for the \u003cstrong\u003eS\u003c\/strong\u003eolo \u003cstrong\u003eT\u003c\/strong\u003eraveler who is \u003cstrong\u003eO\u003c\/strong\u003ebsessive, \u003cstrong\u003eI\u003c\/strong\u003entroverted, and \u003cstrong\u003eC\u003c\/strong\u003eompulsive.
