Disadvantages of travelling alone

Hi

* The single supplement For those who like to stay in decent hotels, there is the unfair single supplement that can add thousands to the cost of your trip.
* Lack of help There is no one to watch your luggage while you go to the restrooms at airports or train stations, no one to help with persistent touts, no one to be there for you if you get sick or if you are being stalked or harassed by a determined male in the street.
* Photos There are times when I would like to have had more taken of myself in certain places, but there again, there are always people willing to snap one or two for you.

I know there will be times in the future when I will travel as part of a group out of choice because I want to visit areas where it is just not possible or sensible for a woman alone, or because I wish to be with family or like-minded people. However, due to my particular personality traits, my preference is to travel alone. I guess it really doesn't matter how people travel, but that they travel.

Thanks
