My friends are a really irritating bunch of people! I’m so angry because they have all bailed out on me. Namely, we all planned to spend out spring break in Latin America and I was so looking forward to it, but they have all decided to ho to Ft. Lauderdale. But I’m going to Latin America. I’m just concerned about the safety for a solo traveler. Should I be?

I think that you have made an excellent decision. Why going to the same place each year when you can try out something different? South America does have a reputation for being a turbulent area, but that fact doesn’t prevent millions of people to go there every year and spend a great time visiting its ancient sites, natural beauties and getting to know wonderful new cultures of this vibrant and colorful continent. Many people go there on their own and of course, you should follow the instructions your Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued, but you shouldn’t be frightened. I advise you not to go to suspicious neighborhoods and to stick to your group, but otherwise just try to relax and enjoy.
