Travel, Safety, and the Reality of the Situation
Is it safe there? When it comes to travel and staying safe, obviously your destination makes a huge difference. But are people traveling to the safest countries? How do you know if a country is safe? I’m analyzing the Gallup Global Law and Order Report (https://www.gallup.com/analytics/356963/gallup-global-law-and-order-report.aspx) to find out how safe the countries are that we traveled to in the summer (Cambodia, Thailand, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Indonesia, Japan, and Canada). You may be surprised how these countries stack up. We’ll also look at the most popular tourist destinations and see how safe they are compared to destinations that are commonly thought of as ‘dangerous’.

I travelled solo, 40ish woman through Vietnam, China and Tibet twenty years ago and felt safe. Its about not doing or going where you feel uncomfortable. Stay sensible, stay aware. Small issue with someone trying to steal a camera from my wrist, but overall fine. I wouldn't travel alone again as I enjoy sharing the experience with someone. Honestly I think its amazing where you went. I am actually considering these for my later travel plans.
Awesome! Thanks

Lolz at Thailand & New Zealand scoring the same as IRAN & Panama… This list assumes people answering the questions are being honest & it goes by peoples patriotic feelz more than any actual factual based evidence.
They are scaredy pants, naysayers, contrarians
Before I moved to China, I had people asking me if it's safe like I hadn't researched it. What's ridiculous is I felt safer walking the streets at night in China than I ever did in my own country, New Zealand. I've seen my friend beaten so badly by a group of drunk guys in NZ but never even saw aggression like that in China. Am I saying China is perfect? No, not at all. But people seem to be under this illusion that NZ is safer than anywhere else when it's not.
I gotta say I enjoyed your travels to the Stans but it never crossed my mind about the safety aspect. Sarah looks pretty smart she wouldn't take you anywhere unsafe ๐๐๐๐
Ireland has been missed off the 2023 report (was 86 in 2022). Was a one-night riot in Dublin, assuming that's the reason
