I'm 19, and a few months ago, I was on the train, on my own on my way back from University in London. An Indian man came to sit next to me. He was about 40-45 years old, and he started asking me questions. He asked if I was married, to which I obviously replied no. He told me I was very pretty, and asked for my number and told me he'd like to see me again. I told him I didn't like that I idea and that I wouldn't give him my number. He asked my age after that, and I replied honestly, to which he replied he thought I was 15. (I have a very young-looking face. And thinking about it now, it seems very dodgy for a 40-45 year old man to be asking for a girl's number to meet with her again if he assumes she's about fifteen, but you know) This was just an example, haha.
I completely agree with you there Dad. I really don't know why they do it, and I would never go to India, haha! It's not just the men, but have you ever seen An Idiot Abroad with Karl Pilkinton when he goes to India? This is off topic entirely, but it's hilarious and I highly reccomend it. :)
Which country listed is the safest for female travelers?
