"Consider getting away for your birthday. If you're able to, getting out of town for a solo birthday celebration is a fantastic way to treat yourself, go exactly where you want to go, and get some precious downtime. Traveling by yourself means you won't have to worry about coordinating your schedule with anyone else, nor will you have to make compromises. If you've always wanted to laze around on a sunny beach, but your normal travel companions prefer to tough it out in the woods, now is your chance to go where you want and do exactly what you want.
If at all possible, try to make travel plans a few weeks in advance in order to get the best deals. This will include making decisions about transportation,making hotel reservations, and packing for your trip.
It's always fun to return to a favorite place, but don't rule out going somewhere entirely new."
