All the woman, who are independent, throw your hands up at me...




Or as it turns out...'turn up in south east Asia!' While on my summer holidays and leave of absence from this blog, I was lucky enough to travel to Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam.  Apart from the amazing countryside, artrocites of war and phenominal sights and people, one of the main things that I saw every where were (I sense a beyonce themed blog here), single ladies!!!!!

Obviously being a single lady myself and hoping to have a bit of a perve on ripped and muscly foreign men I was a bit put out!

Where are all the single men and when did south east Asia travelling become a haven for 'all the single ladies?'

The thing is, it wasn't just me noticing, my dad was the first to point it out saying 'I can't believe all of the woman travelling around here, all looking for a bit of something different, getting out of their comfort zones looking for adventure...what a crock of shit!'

Hmmmm, needless to say the holiday was not filled with perving. Only sickningly happy couples and herds and herds of single ladies.

Now, I am so sure they are all lovely, but what is the draw card here? Are they escaping!? Are they looking for more adventure? Why is it just girl's not boys?

The real question being are girls more into advnture than boys, especially when it comes to leaving the comfort zone of what and where they know?

All I know is that as a single girl-  I live in Asia, they were on my bucketlist and I was travelling with family.

Oh and although I loved mostly every minute of it (Hanoi, you are still in the bad books) I am definatey ready to travel more far away lands! Europe, I'll be catching you next summer!

Welcome back to a new year of being single in Hong Kong!

Love RSG xo
