I need some advice about traveling alone......?

Question

I am a 28 year old woman who wants to go to another country and stay in a hostel, but I'll be alone.....any advice on where to go and what to see?

Answer 1

You certainly could go just about anywhere. Unless of course you are not permitted by your government. Eg US citizens are restricted by their government from travelling to Cuba. I know similar restrictions are placed on other nationalities depending on where they want to go.

One piece of advice I'd give is if you want to avoid unwanted attention then pick a country where it is not uncommon for single women to be seen in public. In some countries it is frowned upon for women to appear in public unchaperoned.

Single women travelling in USA, Australia, Western Europe as well as East and South-East Asia is common so you should have less hassles compared to places such as Turkey and India.

If you wanted to go to any other places group tours are a good way to retain some of your independence but have the security of the group to fall back on.

With hostels you will find that some countries it is common for males and females to share a dorm while other places you may only find segregated dorms.
