    Hi looking for a qucik holiday recs, I have 2.5 weeks off in August and looking for somewhere to go,
    I'l be going solo and have already been on a RTW trip 2 yrs ago, ideally i'd like to go to somewhere like South East Asia but ive already sone the tha/loa/vit & cambodia loop, Ive also been all over south america and not interested in europe/north america either

    can anyone recommend somwhere different to go like Indoneasia/burma/bali/china etc

    idseally somewhere reasonable inexpensive not too far off the beaten track & with lots of things to do & see........
    id also like to avoid the gap year gonns too

    thanks

    What about the middle east? I'd highly recommend Iran, Jordan and Egypt. Probably far too hot though for you in August but sounds like they'd be completely different from your other holidays.

    as far as i know i think Iran is a relatively no go area for westerners, + open to correction,
    Also i like drinking, women & some messing which are not welcome traits of muslin countries

    thanks for the recommendation tho

    Definitely not true. I spent 3 weeks there over Christmas as a solo female with absolutely no problems. I know it's cliche but the friendliest people ever who are so irreverant when it comes to religion and politics they put us to shame.

    Alcohol is widely available and the house parties are legendary but fair enought it's not the type of holiday where you can sit by the beach all day, do some adventure sports and get wasted at night. Just didn't want to let the misapprenhension stand that's it's a no-go for westerners.

    I think you should explore some parts of Asia that you haven't been to. I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned India but that might be an option.
