This was a fabulous read! I’m so glad I got to read it all in one sitting. It was intense and scary. Also a great initiative you’re planning. Women being away from home alone do need to be cautious, be reminded and have strategies. I think back to a few times where I’ve put myself in not-so-ideal situations when I’ve travelled interstate for work or overseas without my partner and I can’t believe I was so silly. Thanks for sharing your experience!

Thanks @linnyplant! Glad you got to read all parts. It's not just women who travel, it can happen any time in your home country as well... you need to be aware at all times, please trust me. Do you mind sharing a bit more of your story what happened to you? Don't even get there thinking you are silly... look at my story and please... don't even feel like this for one second!!
Oh, it’s not interesting like your stuff, and just the usual risks, drinking too much in the company of people you think will look after you, realizing you put yourself in a very vulnerable position later. The lack of situational awareness and taking personal accountability for your security. The younger me was naive and careless. I put myself in awkward situations with work colleagues making advances I was not interested in and not having the foresight or strategies to avoid it to begin with. Back then I was young and too eager to fit in. Overall, I’ve been fortunate, but things could have gone differently. Thinking back now with age, I find it shocking and I worry for my own daughters when they grow up. Besides letting my guard down, what I empathised with your post is being put on the spot and not wanting to offend.
Thank you for sharing @linnyplant I think we all can relate to situations like that... It also takes guts to share them publicly.. and then on blockchain muahah.
I appreciate your comment :-*
