      TheAnswer:

      Ladies, have u guys ever travelled overseas alone?


      Yup. 2 months. Went Europe, Scandinavia and Russia.
      That era no GPS hor, can only rely on maps šŸ˜‰

      My dh (bf then) was super worried because I am the type who get lost in shopping malls and basement carpark. Even got lost in my University campus despite attending classes daily. No worries, I have thick skin. Don't know just grab someone and ask for direction loh

      Super carefree to travel alone. Freedom!!! I wanna to try again but unlikely dh will ever allow. He felt very stressed that entire 2 months while waiting for me to return :rotflmao:

      Actually no need to worry about getting lost.. Just ask lor.. Most importantly is the country must be safe. I love to travel alone.. Freedom... Can basically do anything u want.. I was lost in a shopping mall carpark last year when I was in San Francisco.. Forgot where I parked my car šŸ˜“

      So far I only went to a few countries alone.. Australia, Malaysia, Hong Kong.. That's all.. Is it safe to travel alone to Europe?

      My girl friend jio me to go London in 2017. Just the 2 of us..
      I also want to visit Tokyo and Korea either alone or with my girl friends.. These places my hubby is not interested to go..

        I was the guide when I went overseas with hubby, armed with maps.

        Our underground MRt does not hv maps mah šŸ˜‰

        They got arrows..

        My hubby is not very good with directions.. I rather study the map myself.. My boy is good with maps too.. Next time he can take over..

          I felt safe back then. But that was super long ago, when I was still single. Not sure about now.

          I heard from my brother that Paris is not that safe nowadays due to street gang. Originally intend to revisit Paris, tour free and easy with dd1. I'm a museum person, love love love paintings! So taking a package tour won't suit my interest
          My brother strongly discouraged the two of us from travelling on our own

              My most recent 'got lost' incident was at Ang Mo Kio hub carpark. Cannot find my car :frustrated:

              I won't even attempt to park at Suntec. I get confused each and every time.

              I can only handle small car park with maximum two lift lobby :oops:

                The one I was lost at had too many entrances and levels and to make things more complicated, there were too many alphabet labeling :gloomy: and worse I'm not so sure how it connected with the mall.. Had to walk in the cold finding my car.. Took me a good 30 mins before I found my car 😢

                Almost wanted to call SOS already..

                  I realised if I were the driver, I tend to remember where I park my car.

                    Yes, I will force myself to remember if I'm driving, or even write down the level etc, but if I'm being driven - no way I can help find the car! I always tell my husband that if he wants me to remember, he must warn me first. Don't ask me as only when we are looking for the car!

                      We always make a point (ie the whole family) to remember where the car is parked even to the extent of remembering the level, zone n car park lot no.

                        Well, I've lived overseas in many places, and moved around alone quite a bit in new places. Does that count? Travelling out of Singapore alone - only once that I can remember, but that was to several places in Japan, US and Canada - one very long trip. I am OK if I intentionally prepare myself with maps and directions. It's only when I haven't prepared that I find it hard to remember.
