The opposite SEX
(Preview)
Hey, I put sex in the title to get some notice only. I also am using the premise of Solo travellers meeting up on the road.

A little bit vulnerable!
(Preview)
I am putting this post on here because I think it is mainly we solo's who feel this kind of vulnerability! Headed into the Grampians area and thought I would stay at Lake Lonsdale. Red tick in the book! Got to the boat ramp, down a obviously disused road to find just toilets sitting there and a boat ramp to a...

The Solo's has had some issue, and I think we should correct them. Is the Solo's thread needed - what do we need that is not accomplished in the main. For me, I feel uncomfortable, on socialising with couples - the odd one out. I need to know there are others that wish to travel, and will do so on their own. I w...
