Thought this might help answer Dawa's wonderings.
Just a bit of fun really, see what this group is made of.
Dawa...where are you???
Gday...
Being such resourceful individuals, the solo female nomads have quite probably got a life
Cheers - John
as a solo female the net is a big part of my life.
camped in the bush but still in touch >>>>>>WAY TO GO
dAWA
are you meeting these solo women in c/van parks or free camping
Dawa
Caravan parks, Dawa. We only free-camp 1 or 2 days per week on average, and seem to meet only couples then.
Nice to see the lady nomads numbers up there!
We are all the same just get out there and do your thing.
Don't shy away from conversation as many will wait for you to say hello etc so always add a few words after the Hello (hello nice spot here etc) and always sit outside when you are idle not inside hiding. Sitting outside means you are open for a chat, inside means "leave me alone"

Wow - those figures are looking very interesting. BTW: This is my very 1st post - just got my acceptance to join the forums yesterday (took a while too).
I've been reading several posts in the solo section with great interest since I'll be a solo male when I eventually get organised. So - be warned - I have a zillion questions many of which will no doubt be FAQs so I really hope I don't annoy anyone with them.
I must say from the outset, I am very very impressed by this site and the people here. If you're all just half as friendly & helpful in the flesh as you are on this forum I'll be honoured to make your acquaintance.
I should prolly post something in my profile but I'm too lazy atm, but if anyone is curious about anything feel free to ask. ok - it's 5am here and I should hit the sack. See you all soon.
Cheers!

That's great advice Brian - not to stay locked up inside but rather sit outside to let the world know you are open to conversation etc. Thanks for that.
Welcome Xen - I'm new here too! Great place to be eh?
So Caravan Parks are better than being stuck somewhere off the beat and track if you want to meet other like minded folk - that makes so much sense to me. On average how much does it cost to stay for a week at a Caravan Park? I bet that's a hard one.

A big thanks to all the veterans on this board for making it easier for us dreamers to "live the dream".
In the caravan jails I find you cant get the same result as you do in a camp.
People are more open in a camp and they are all doing similar things so more common grounds and better communications.
Price in caravan jails vary from about $70 a week to more than I can afford or want to part with to be packed in so I cant relax and enjoy life. I would rather spend my money where I am welcome to visit with no strings and also be able to spread my money in the town and not at one place the CP.

Yep - I bush camp around 25 days out of 30 - I go to van parks usually only to spend some time re-stocking pantry, picking up letters, filling tanks with water etc. Even then, I usually stay at small towns rather than the big cities.
And I must admit I meet the best, and most open-minded people, at bush camps. They seem more relaxed, are usually 'in tune' with the lifestyle and have much broader, and engaging conversations.
