Syfia, being from Nepal and of similar age, I could relate to many things you say. Being ambitious, trying to follow your dreams as an Asian woman, not wanting to marry in early twenties...and not being born with silver spoon yet wanting to follow your dreams. Had a dream of traveling too, I could travel to 15countries so far. I wanna know more about your journey, about conflicts hardships you had, discussion with your family,society for not following the culture. And staying with a boyfriend perhaps could be a big move for you. What was the journey like? How you got strength, courage to follow your heart always? Lots of love. 💖

[@charlesthehandsomeandbrave2956]

[@hunnitbaehunnitbae8804]

As a South-East Asian myself, it really is very difficult to travel alone or even travel at all. It's not just that our passports are weak, it's also that our families are very protective of us. The idea of us traveling alone is so strange for our elders. It's also pretty difficult considering that when we do a lot of research, a lot of the info is usually catered to Westerners and et cetera. Idk man, just a lot of things holding us down. This is why I have so much respect for you, Syifa. You inspire me so much. I've always wanted to travel alone, and I never thought I could *actually* do that until I started watching your videos. Much love from the PH ❤

[@InnerPeaceFindings]

Yalla lets try solo travel also.Ive been thinking it for months now and this beautiful girl inspire me..

[@TheGreenPillCoach7]

Travelling alone, especially as a woman, is marketed as this awesome, hip, cool, empowering and progressive thing to just jump onto doing. But, the glitz and glamour isn't the reality; it comes with risks to this day and any honest woman will tell you that. There's a reason why your elders are protective of you, as they should be. If you look at the stats of the kinds of dangers single lone female travellers fall into, they remain distinct from that of their male counterparts. There's simply no getting around that problem in the real world. So, it's wiser to travel in a group of friends, with your family, or with a husband. Try one of those options, and maybe you can still experience the wonders of various parts of the world.

Your story is so relatable to every girl in non-western countries around the world, no matter their culture, religion or background they also have this kind of feeling with the whole responsibility of their family, like financially or even future generations, etc. You're so brave and inspiring, breaking that stereotype and everything, keep doing what you're doing, not so many female travelers like you these days especially from Asia, because it's different not like some kind of glamourous instagram travel influencer or youtuber but a bit more like Vice or NatGeo kinda vibe.

There was also a time when I got super interested in wwoofing... however at the time I felt my responsibility to provide for my family had a stronger pull on me. No regrets. Fast forward to now, I'm still working full time ^__^ but this time I have the means to pursue the travels I chose to give up before ^^ All is well. Haven't tried wwoofing but knowing myself, I know I'll do that one day in the future... This content is really inspiring Syifa and looking forward to the next story... Keep safe.

Your story is an inspiration to many people who are afraid and uncomfortable of venturing out of their comfort zone. By sharing your experience, I’m sure you have inspired many people to take that leap into the unknown and know that everything will work out.

Namaste Syifa, Keep traveling and bring us more and more nice videos. It's awesome you chose to stay in Nepal.

Entah la...Saya tak rasa orang2 indonesia macam yg dia terangkan dalam video ni.. Saya rasa semua ibu bapa indonesia mau anak2 mereka berpendidikan tinggi tak kira perempuan atau lelaki. (Kecuali keluarga dia ni...mungkin?) Saya rasa, dia cuma nak escape dari keluarganya. Dia nak bebas berpakaian & beropini & bebas memilih cara hidupnya, yg berbeza drpd life style keluarganya yg lebih Islamik. Jadi dia nak escape dari semua keluarganya yg pasti judgemental dengan cara hidup pilihannya. Entah la...itu pendapat saya saja. Saya pun tak mengenali keluarganya & orang sekelilingnya. Salam dari Malaysia.

[@hana_fau]

Benar, keluarga dan lingkungan aku sebagai orang Indonesia alhamdulillah tidak ada berpikir seperti ini. Bahkan bagi orang tua saya pendidikan itu nomor satu. Tapi terkadang beberapa orang kena pengalaman pahit atau kena mental terkait budaya disekelilingnya yang diterjemahkan kalau itu disebabkan Islam

I'm Australian of italian heritage in my mid 60's, in1985 I went to Europe, it was my 1st time out of the country as well as flying. Arrived in Bologna at the ducati factory bought a motorcycle and toured on my own for 3 months. I stayed mostly in youth hostel and with relatives in Sardegna. Travelling then was not as easy, english was not widely spoken and mobiles were something new and smart phones didn't exist. I admire your drive just remember that you will eventually have to come back to reality and the longer you leave it the harder it is, unless something / someone takes you to a better place

Hi kak Syifa! Terima kasih ya sudah buat video ini. Very inspirational. Aku jadi sadar untuk tetep yakin sama diri sendiri, dengerin kata hati sendiri & berusaha untuk kejar yang aku mau walaupun kadang banyak orang yang gak bisa ngerti.
