somehow I came across an interesting blog for travelers: http://solotravelerblog.com/
This presents information for single men and women considering traveling alone to somewhere or anywhere. This is a daring thing to do, traveling alone. I think many, perhaps most American tourists would never consider solo travel. This is for the adventurous Is that YOU?
American news presents a skewed view of the world. Hunter Thompson as crazy as he was, was not far off base using “fear and loathing” as a banner. News in the United States uses fear mongering to sell the evening news. On the whole, people internationally are warm and friendly, if self motivated. But I digress.
Check out solo traveler.
