Welcome to SoloTrails – your trusted companion for exploring the world solo after 50.
Hello and Welocome, I am Saschi, your guide and storyteller. With years of solo travelling across over 30 countries in Europe and beyond, I see travel not as a bucket list, but a journey of personal growth, reflection, and adventure.
SoloTrails is born from a simple belief: life doesn’t stop at 50. it opens up.

Meet the Author
My name is Saschi and am of South Asian heritage although I have spent most of my life is London. I did ventue out to Manchester for my studies and then my working life took me to the Netherlands and Edinburgh. These are cities enjoyed tremendously and love dearly.
I have travelled extensively around Europe for business and leisure and later I venture further to America, Africa and Asia. I have travelled to over 30 countries and wish to add to my list of countries and cities visited.
I launched SoloTrails to share lessons learned on the road navigating cobbled streets in Edinburgh, sipping coffee in Maastricht’s many cafés, and chasing sunsets in Lisbon. My journey stems from a deep love of travel, a quest for connection, an interest in history and culture and a desire to inspire others to step out solo with confidence.
