How safe is Thailand?
I lived in Thailand for 5 years and traveled all over the place alone - it's totally safe. Of course, like anywhere, be aware of your surroundings and don't do risky things. Thailand and the Thai people are amazing.

Thailand was amazing for a solo trip (my first)!! Super safe, very cheap, people are friendly and helpful. I stayed in Krabi, Ao Nang in an Airbnb. Stayed for 10 days but it’s worth staying way longer. There are many many things to do, boat trips, lots of restaurants and bars/clubs as well. Weed is legal if you’re into that😂 I never once felt unsafe, maybe except for the one time a bunch of stray dogs appeared around me at night but it ended up being fine hahah. The food is great and very inexpensive. At my fav restaurant there I spent 80 baht for a full meal with a drink (=2.17$). The airbnb/apartment was not the best honestly but it was okay and also affordable, around 250$ for 10 nights. Next time i’d rather choose a hotel though, I just booked too late and everything was full. If you have a license, moving around will be super easy as you can rent a motorcycle for cheap. I don’t, so I mostly walked around but there are also many tuktuks that operate as taxis😁 Very easy to connect with people, many other solo travelers are there and I never once felt alone. 1000% would go back again for longer! Jan-March I think are the best times to go❤️
