Solo travel experience
I went alone to Thailand for a month. It's very safe. I never felt scared and never found myself in dangerous situations. It's easy to get around the country because everyone helps you, and there are many people traveling alone. No problem with the language.

I visited Thailand for two weeks and I enjoyed it so much. I went north to south. I slept in hostels and felt very safe, except for the mosquitoes attacking me.

Thailand is an amazing country with incredibly kind locals. I stayed in Bangkok and Koh Samui. I felt very, very safe. Highly recommend the Grab app for ordering transportation. It's just like Uber. You know the driver's identity and the price prior to the ride.
