Feeling a mix of guilty/remorse

This is my first longterm solo travel experience! I sort of went crazy and traveled through 5 countries in 2 months (would not recommend again haha) I'm still feeling pretty energized, but since I'm speed running each city I feel so guilty for not seeing all of my bucket list items. Then I get in my head and feel like I wasted an opportunity by not thoroughly planning or budgeting my time. I almost feel like I'm disrespecting myself and each city for not experiencing everything it has to offer. Anyone feel this way? I just want to get out of my head for a bit but this rant is going to come off a bit too privileged to my friends and family at home who are actually working and experiencing real issues lol. --- **Post Details:** - **Subreddit:** r/solotravel - **Author:** u/Silent-Anxiety-5334 - **Score:** 21 upvotes - **Upvote Ratio:** 89.0% - **Comments:** 19 - **Posted:** 7/3/2025 - **URL:** https://reddit.com/r/solotravel/comments/1lqhlh2/feeling_a_mix_of_guiltyremorse/
