MY TOP 5 SAFE PLACES FOR WOMEN TO TRAVEL ALONE
Feeling safe is subjective, and I must say I am not easily frightened. As a young girl I used to frequent an area of Tokyo that was a treasure trove of bargains, but also said to be a huge area for white slave traffickers. How true it was and how much was urban legend or foreign parents being over protective I don't know. That same area today is very fashionable. Besides criminal danger there are dangers from weather, wildlife, social dangers like discrimination or political corruption, and countries at war are certainly not safe for anyone. Ultimately you must trust your gut and do your research.
My top places to travel alone and feel safe are 1) Japan; even the police do not carry guns and crime is very low. There is the language, but find any teenager in a school uniform and most likely they speak enough English to help you out. 2) Ireland; the people are very friendly, all signs are posted in English and Irish, and the population speaks English. 3) Singapore; they are very hard on crime so crime rates are like Japan very low. 4) Australia; is much like travel within the USA and is safe throughout, but has it's pockets of places to avoid or be be mindful of such as parks at night, questionable neighborhoods, isolated roads or countryside and dark allies. 5) USA; everything I said about Australia applies here, and there is so much to see and explore right in our own country. every state has something to offer.
Being safe is as much about how you carry yourself. Being a believer in the law of attraction I totally believe my safety is what I do to attract or repel unsafe people or situations. Check back for some tips on things you can do to shield against dangerous people and situations.
