Sometimes it’s nice to take a break and treat yourself to a vacation. However, a big question that comes up particularly to solo traveler is where to go? That decision may be easier than it seems because some places are much more single-friendly than others when it comes to solo traveling. A few weeks ago, I've covered "5 Best Places for Traveling Solo". Today, we'll look at which countries are more solo friendly compared with the rest.
New Zealand is one of the most preferred choice for solo traveling. It is a beautiful, friendly and clean place and many people who visit don’t want to go back home! Kiwis (the nick-name for people native to New Zealand) are known for being welcoming, adventurous, and friendly so even though you are alone, you may never feel lonely! There are plenty of outdoor activities that the more adventurous traveler can join in without ever having to be a part of a group if they choose. New Zealand has more than 350 places to stay with rates starting at $10 per person per night, which only makes it seem more welcoming! There are also great bus systems that cover all of New Zealand for easy travel.
Australia is another great country to visit for solo travelers. Solo travel is quite common Down Under, and many Aussies won't blink an eye at the prospect of a solo traveler. With so many solo travelers exploring the country you’re likely to run into others. Places to stay, like in New Zealand, are plentiful. From hostels to big hotel chains, some hostels even accommodate solo traveler with easy ways to join others at swimming pools and large tables in dining areas. You can also try bus travel as an easy mode of transportation to get around the continent. Overall, Australia is an easy place for solo travelers to come and stay.
England seems to have an attraction for solo travelers, too. There are large cities and small country villages so every kind of traveler can find something for them. England has a great public transport system of busses and trains, so traveling cross-country can be easy. Good quality hotels and inns are easy to find all over. The bed and breakfasts scattered throughout the country are great for single travelers. They provide pleasant places to sit and chat with other travelers.
Above all, remember that to choose a place that you’d enjoy and don’t stress too much. If you enjoy warmer climates, maybe you should try and find somewhere sunny like Australia and New Zealand. If you don’t mind some cooler, damp air, consider going to England. Either way, you should have fun on your trip!
