Just joined the site & wanted to say hi. I often travel alone when my son is away and love to share news & ideas.

Report on eTurboNews about sex and travel: "A lot of people who are nice and proper here, do things more out of line when they are away," says a co-owner of the Toronto nightclub Wicked. They're doing those things in public, and they're even doing them at public monuments, which has gotten some people arrested.

"A summer-sex survey done by the condom maker Durex in 2006 found that people on vacation are most likely to have sex in a hotel room, but will also engage in amore in the pool, at the beach and on the hotel balcony.

"In Men's Health magazine, an article discussing the top reader-submitted vacation spots for sex included the Grand Canyon and a New York ferry."

Never thought of that -- and I grew taking that ferry.

"In Britain, a phenomenon called "dogging" has seen a rise of people having sex and watching people have sex in public parks."

The authors of Sex and Tourism: Journeys of Romance, Love and Lust have found that most of this sex is with the partners people are already traveling with. I'm not sure what they mean by "most."

In any case -- and on balance -- is this a good thing?

Fancy spending a week on a tropical beach all-expenses paid?

Ever had a dream about being part of a tribe and living the tribal life?

Interested in sustainable development technologies?

Have an interest in local heritage?

Wouldn't mind participating in the following activities: sunbathing, building, swimming, cooking, canoeing upriver, trekking, fishing, beach football, skill sharing, teaching, drumming, bonfires, and eating great seafood?

Have an urge to be the first to discover a new destination?

Want to make a difference in a country looking to change its image?

If your answer to one of the questions above is YES, then why not check out Tribewanted Sierra Leone's prize draw. For more information and to enter the 'sweepstake', click here.

Andrew, a traveller who has recently booked a responsible tourism holiday to Cameroon through the West Africa Discovery website, suggested that we post his story about his journey through Senegal and the Gambia in order to raise awareness to the rich experiences that can be had in West Africa when travelling independently. Of course,without hesitation, we agreed! So, without further ado, sit back with a cup of tea (or coffee, as you prefer) and enjoy the following recount of what seems like an unforgettable experience.

I have traveled solo several times. I am planning on doing some solo time in Wales and also in Tanzania. I find I actually become more sociable if I'm on my own. I seek out others in place of conversing with my companions. I've met lots of interesting people this way!

It takes one person to go there and come back to tell their friends what a good time they had in order to change perceptions. This is what Sorrell Golding did, and now she has written an inspiring article that hopefully, as she puts it, will give Sierra Leone the acknowledgement it deserves for being such a friendly, stunning, unforgettable country!

Hi all,
I'm a solo backpacker and, last time I checked, a woman and have already experienced my fair share of highs and lows. This is my first solo journey and already 3 out of 12 weeks into it! Join me as I go through the emotions and figure out important life and personal lessons along the way!
