Solo travel
I spent a solitary 4.5 months traveling around Southeast Asia and visited Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Bali, and I enjoyed them all. I would definitely recommend Cambodia. Especially the Koh Rong islands - they are geographically close to the popular Thai islands, but they are much less spoiled and amazing thanks to sections of white beaches and crystal blue ocean!

I loved Vietnam (my favorites are the Mekong Delta, Hoi An and Ha Long Bay (you can live on the islands there)) and Sumatra (check out Lake Maninjau and the orangutan sanctuary in Bukit Lawang). Don't book too far in advance, that way you can stay longer in the places you will love and vice versa.

About me
Dancer at heart, researcher by profession, and traveller whenever I get the chance. I love good food (making and eating), spontaneous plans, long walks in new cities, music that makes me move, and a little bit of chaos in between. Also veryyyyyy likely to stop mid-conversation to pet a random animal.
