Woman Books Luxury Vacation for Herself, Commits to Embracing 'Solo Romance'

In a society that often emphasizes the importance of romantic relationships, Mikaela Moschella (@yearofyesldn) is challenging the paradigm by advocating for self-love and solo romancing. Moschella's philosophy is centered around the belief that being single doesn't mean neglecting oneself, but rather strengthening the most vital relationship—the one with oneself.

In a recent TikTok video, Moschella encouraged single women to embrace self-romance by indulging in nice trips, delightful dinners, and luxurious experiences. Sharing her own journey, the 28-year-old New York native, now based in London, opened up about her decision to embark on a "year of yes" following the end of a six-year relationship and subsequent divorce due to infidelity. Moschella has been documenting her reclamation of self on TikTok, providing inspiration to others along the way.

"One of the best ways you can learn about yourself and the world is through solo travel," Moschella shared. With a passport adorned with stamps from 45 countries and counting, she has become an avid explorer. Her recent trip to Malta was not just about relishing the picturesque beauty; it also gave her an opportunity to reconnect with past acquaintances who now work in the hospitality industry.

For Moschella, self-love has come to the forefront, and she hopes to inspire other women to engage in similar acts of self-romance. Whether it's enjoying a lavish meal alone, taking in breathtaking views while engrossed in a book, or connecting with the friendly hotel staff, she believes these experiences are powerful in fostering a healthy relationship with oneself.

The significance of investing time and effort into oneself isn't lost on Moschella. "The strongest and longest relationship that you will ever have is the one you have with yourself," she affirmed. By prioritizing self-love and nurturing one's own presence, an individual is better equipped to extend genuine love to others—an expansive and fulfilling love that encompasses romantic relationships, family, and friendships.

Moschella's message goes beyond the realm of solo travel—it serves as a powerful reminder that the relationship with oneself should always be a priority. By normalizing self-romance, we uplift the concept of independence and empower individuals to embrace their own company with love and gratitude. For in doing so, we pave the way for stronger, healthier connections with others and a more benevolent world.
