Maori magic on New Zealand's South Island

Solo travelers looking to connect with local cultures of New Zealand's South Island have plenty of opportunities with Maori family-owned businesses like Whale Watch Kaikoura or a day with Te Rua & Sons Pounamu Tours to explore the West Coast and perhaps to find a pounamu keepsake, a jade-like stone indigenous to the region.

A walk on the Wilde side in Dublin

There may be no better combination than a pint and a good book — and no better destination to engage yourself in literature than Oscar Wilde's birthplace, Dublin, Ireland.

Big dreams fulfilled on Petit St. Vincent

If the idea of an all-inclusive resort sounds appealing but the crowds of guests not so much, consider the private island of Petit St. Vincent, located 40 miles south of St. Vincent. Getting there is an adventure, including a private flight from Barbados to Union Island and a boat transfer. The 115-acre island features one-and two-bedroom cottages dotted throughout the grounds where visitors can get lost in the sound of gentle waves.

When I was in the eighth grade, my class was assigned to be friends with second-grade kids. I got paired with Shelley, a small, quiet girl who never joined her classmates' games. She would sit alone in the corner, staring out the window, and didn't respond to any of my attempts to connect — whether I offered her colorful crayons, sweet candies, or a brand-new coloring book. Even when I sat beside her and talked about my favorite cartoons or funny school stories, she would just look down at her shoes, her shoulders hunched like she was trying to disappear. Days passed, but there was still no sign of change in her. I began to worry that I might never be able to get close to this lonely little girl.

One Friday, I sat down beside her and shared my own childhood story: how I'd felt lonely in elementary school, how I'd hidden my tears so no one would see my pain, and how a teacher's kind word had finally helped me open up. I told her that I knew what it was like to feel like no one understood, and that she didn't have to be alone anymore. When I finished, Shelley's eyes were shining with tears. For the first time, she looked me in the eye and spoke to me, whispering, "Thank you."

The next week, our school planned a "Buddy Talent Show" for the paired students. I knew this could be a turning point for Shelley, so I gently suggested she perform. She hesitated at first, her fingers holding the hem of her dress, but after I told her I'd be right there with her, playing the piano to accompany her, she nodded slowly. I could see a flicker of hope in her eyes, and I knew we were about to take a big step together.
