Is Thailand safe for solo female travelers?

Thailand was mu first solo trip as I was nominated to the World Youth Leadership Award to represent Egypt on a Global Change. I enjoyed the culture history, the food and the night markets. Highlight of my trip: Riding a motorcycle🤪

Bangkok, Solo travel

Food in Bangkok is amazing, I ate at the most street area, visually of course it’s not like in the restaurant, but taste unbelievable. For me personally I felt very safe here, a lot of people says it’s not safe for solo girl to travel here, but I disagree so far.

Thailand was a very beautiful trip, the people are very welcoming and you feel completely safe. The landscapes are magnificent, their culture and their dishes are delicious. Everything is very cheap there, the activities are super interesting, we traveled from Bangkok to Krabi and to the islands up to Phuket.

Never had a bad experience here, been here for 2 years. People are very kind and helpful. In Thailand in general, as long as you stay away from red light districts and tourist filled clubs and bars, you should have nothing but positive experiences.

I rarely leave the house because I don’t like big cities, but I can’t leave yet, but all the exits were safe, people look friendly and don’t pay much attention to you, many will help if you get into trouble
