TALES OF A BLACK FEMALE SOLO "Caribbean" TRAVELLER IN EUROPE

Being a black female solo traveller in Europe can bring you lots of good and bad attention from the airports to the streets.  From both males and females, especially when travelling alone.  I meet women sometimes, who will walk up to me and compliment me on my hair (if I am wearing the African braids), my skin colour, etc. The men most times see you as an “unfamiliar species” and want to be the first to “get to know you better”. I will share some views and tales of a black female solo traveller in Europe.  

Nb. Countries featured in this post are some of the friendliest and most welcoming countries visited as a black woman).  See my Destination page for full reviews and more photos.
