Thailand for female travellers? You heard it right!

Thailand has long been a great choice for solo female travellers. Whether it’s for the adventurous, the foodie, the one who lives by the eat-pray-love mantra, Thailand has a place for her. While Thailand has always offered a culturally rich travel experience, it turned out to be an excellent choice to heal a broken heart too.

When my ex and I broke up, I felt like the ghost of my former self. The loss of a love relationship is a feeling that many people can relate to. At the same time, I also realised the utmost importance of loving myself.

As a travel addict, the idea of a getaway sounded like the perfect self-pampering escapade. “I owe it to myself to spoil me silly,” I decided rather triumphantly. And spoil myself silly I did, during my recent trip to Thailand (specifically Bangkok and Pattaya), which I discovered is not just an amazing travel destination, but a great one at healing the broken heart, on top of that.

1. Get out of your comfort zone – sail out to the open seas

Suggestion: Go island hopping on a private yacht from Ocean Marina Yacht Club in Na Jomtien.

Nature, I’ve learnt, has the power to bring healing. On this holiday, connect with mother earth by going on an adventure in open seas. After all, there is no better way to feel like a brand new person than stepping out of your comfort zone.
