Solo Traveler publishes regularly. New articles, updated guides tools, and reference pages are added as the site grows. Until now, each new post has been shared directly by email.

That approach works for a while. But over time, it can place too much emphasis on immediacy and not enough on context.

Travel planning, especially when you travel alone, benefits from clarity more than volume. The same is true for how information is shared.

That’s why the Solo Traveler newsletter is changing.

What The Waypoint Is

The Waypoint is a bi-weekly summary that brings together what has been added, updated, or refined across the Solo Traveler ecosystem.

Rather than sending a separate email for every new post, The Waypoint offers a calm overview. It highlights new articles, notes meaningful updates to existing resources, and points out quiet improvements to tools, pages, or reference material that might otherwise be easy to miss.

Think of it as a moment to pause and take stock. A place to re-orient, not to keep up.

Why this Change Makes Sense

Solo Traveler has grown beyond a simple publishing schedule. It now includes long-form guides, practical tools, reference pages and community-driven projects that evolve over time.

A summary format makes it easier to connect these pieces and explain how they fit together. It also respects the reality that inbox space is limited and attention is valuable.

The goal is not to send more. It’s to send better.

What Hasn’t Changed

Articles will continue to be published on SoloTraveler.org as usual. Nothing is being reduced or held back.

If you prefer to follow new posts as they appear, the website and RSS remain the best way to do that. The Waypoint exists for readers who want a steady, periodic overview without feeling pressured to track every update.

What to Expect Going Forward

Every two weeks, The Waypoint will arrive with a concise summary of what’s new and what’s changed. It will focus on usefulness, clarity, and relevance for people who travel independently.

No urgency. No noise. Just a clear sense of where things stand.

Travel works best when you know where you are and where you’re headed. This newsletter is meant to do the same.
