What holiday destination is the most concerning?
-
Holding cell in a North Korean political prison, awaiting sham trial and execution following crimes of wrongspeak against dear leader. Only £99.99 on TUI!
Uhm excuse me, did you just insinuate that NK is a authoritarian hell hole‽ You have been banned from ml
-
With everything that's happening over there rn, probably the US
Especially considering whatever tf they're doing at the border now, yea it's for the best

US if you're brown.
Somalia if you're white.
-
Probably Morocco if you're travelling solo as a woman
I've heard Egypt is particularly bad for this.
I also got offered 20 camels for my girlfriend at the time in Tunisia. I did that chap a big favour by not taking him up on his offer.

The Darién Gap would be pretty wild. Also Haiti.

Cambodia, according to some dead people that are in the know.

Who doesn't like a Holiday in Cambodia?

The line at the top of Mount Everest.
But your style can be remembered for ages.

Lived there for two years with my parter and loved it.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]all the ones that are super-authtorian ones: russia, NK, USA, Saudia arabia if you are in a certain demographic. all the war torn ones that were ruined by israel. places where you have no experience in, like deep jungle in South and central america, and antartica and also mt everest, K2.
too many westerners thought they could venture out in the jungle with no directions or guides.

some people even did K2, and thats more dangerous than everest.

I heard apparently that is just their sense of humour. Not sure, though

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I think Dubai should be high on the list. A vapid city without history that only attracts people because of being expensive.
It's thriving die to slave labor and violent racism.

Nobody should ever go to North Korea. You're giving money to the most repressive regime on earth so you can take pictures of their misery

I feel like Thailand is a more concerning destination for single men, but I'm not familiar with other sex tourism destinations. I know the Dominican Republic was big for some but I was just there with my wife and didn't see anything concerning.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]Thailand has a LOT to offer and do that has nothing to do with sex tourism; that's just an unfortunate reputation that they get because of a few places like in Bangkok and Pattaya but Thailand is an incredible country in many other categories as well. Literally the best food on the planet

Oh I know. I've been there, twenty years ago. It's a wonderful place and I hope to take my kids there some day.
But the reputation isn't for no reason. It's at the top of my list for problematic places for single men to travel alone to, but that doesn't mean it's not an awesome place to go or even that all single men traveling solo are there for bad intent.
I would highly encourage people to go there. The more non-sex tourism they get, the better for everyone, I think.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Dubai in particular just seems so fake, and I get the impression that unless you are very, very rich the people there lack all respect for you.
That is what I thought about Dubai, before I learned about the Dubai porta potty, needless to say, my impression of Dubai sank even lower

There is an old blog about two tourists travelling to NK through an unauthorized border checkpoint and got to travel by train across NK without guides
It is an interesting read

Maybe you shouldn't judge people before you've met them

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I'm not judging any individual, I said a solo male vacation to Thailand is a flag. Which is the whole point of the post, so what are you even saying here? I hope when I check you are admonishing everyone else who responded...
Oh look at that... not just that but you are a top level commenter judging people. Hmmm.
