Am from New Zealand & am tired of holidaying in Australia. I don't want to go to Asia so that only leaves the Pacific Islands re a cheap holiday as travelling further afield than Asia is very expensive for us. I don't have a boyfriend to travel with & my friends don't have the funds to come with me so I wondered about lazing around on the beach on my own. Perhaps that wouldn't be acceptable there? I might get unwanted male attention, or worse? When I say Pacific, I mean South Pacific so don't recommend Hawaii as it's too expensive re American dollars & the airfare.
