Travelling solo is becoming more popular than ever in 2017 and a whopping 70% of our guests are solo travellers. This inspired us to start a new blog post series for female single travellers and interview our favourite solo travel experts.
Today, we ask Leyla from Women on the Road her most inspiring tips for women travelling solo to make your next holidays the time of your life. Having travelled all around the world as a female solo traveller for more than four decades, Leyla is passionate about helping women travel independently and Women on the Road is one of the ultimate solo travel resources for information, advice and ideas. Here are Leyla’s top 5 tips:
1. Dare to say yes
2. Stop thinking everyone is looking at you
3. Don’t be scared, be sensible
4. Ask questions
5. Embrace diversity
Thank you Leyla!

I’ve been travelling mostly solo for 25 years and never thought of doing #4: preparing questions in advance! Nice one.
