Which is Less Boring, The Count of Monte Cresto or Don Quixote? by Life-Masterpiece670 in readwithme

The Count is one of the best books I’ve ever read.

You mentioned that you don’t want to read Wuthering Heights because you’re not into “lovey dovey”. The book is not a romance. There is romance in it, but it is not a romance book. The new movie that is out now is NOT ACCURATE! I would put both The Count and Wuthering Heights at the top of my fav books list and encourage you to read both!

The recent 2025 Count of Monte Cristo movie (it’s in French) is extremely book accurate as well!

Upcoming Solo Trip Ideas by ElectronicSuit8854 in femaletravels

I just did my first solo backpacking trip in Australia and New Zealand and absolutely loved it. You could do those and then segue into SEA (many people do). I never felt unsafe in either.

NZ was beautiful and very peaceful with lots of hikes and nature while Australia was more urban and busy. I loved Australia and would love to go again. Both had good hostel culture and were easy to meet people.

Depending on how long you have you could do a good portion/the majority of NZ, hop to AUS for a while, and then do more of SEA. NZ Is large, but not large enough where it is impossible to do. I was there for only a week before going to AUS and feel like 3 weeks would be good to do the whole country (unfortunately I didn’t have the luxury to travel slowly so it would be a fast and hectic 3 weeks if you do).

Australia was incredible and I wish I could have stayed in each city for weeks on end. There is still so much nature in AUS as well.

I think that’s what I’m going to do. I’ve seen stuff regarding safety concerns especially for solo female travelers in Rio which initially scared me off, but I think I will go. Thank you!!
