Looking at the dates, problem being you ain't female, and I'd be sharing a bed. Sorry, this is females only.

I should have stated that.....

Why don't you go by yourself? Yes it's practically unheard of for a female to travel alone but it can be very liberating. You will always meet people wherever you go and you can plan your days without compromise.

I went to Greece alone and loved it. Went on trips most days, shopping the cheap knock of goods and just sitting on a deck chair overlooking the sea on others. It cost under £300 but it was a late deal ( I left within about 4 weeks of booking). But the Greek Islands are beautiful. I love the people and the laid back way of life.

You don't need to find someone measurer. Just go!

Southeast Asia
I traveled to Indonesia on my own and my 18 year old is now traveling in South east Asia alone... best education ever!

However it is nice to have a traveling companion

I think you've raised you're child very well. Hats of to you.

Yes my dear. Halves on hotel room and to catch the flight, it's either a 7 hour overlay in airport or I book a hotel in Luton- cheap enough, just hate the fact I'll probably not sleep for fear I'll miss the flight in the morning, as Glasgow flight gets in around 10pm night before. Then travel to hotel, sleep, eat and then get bus back over to the airport for 5am. Better to have company, but it's not the first I have went myself. I usually just stay in the airport.

You're thinking of over-nighting in Luton??
Have you thought about asking JRA to take you on a tour of the local dineries and wineries - he's quite the expert on that kind of thing, don'tcha know?

When are you thinking of going?

Some of those places down the coast from Tangiers are nice too like Asilah but I love Essaouira and always wanted to return there

Mid September

Ahh, sounds a good time, a bit cooler too I can smell that Thuya wood already

If you like architecture, I can recommend southern Czech Republic, towns like Telc, Trebon, Cesky Krumlov are incredible places. Untouched in WW2.

He's very good at keeping in touch, I have learned so much too from his journey but I'll be on edge until we meet in Portugal later this month.He's only 18 but has done so well booking all his flights and accommodation as he goes along...being dyslexic etc. and a job to return too when he gets home

Did you read the other post before typing? I DO go myself, and have did so before, but it's also nice to not have to pay for a double room when single. I have been to Morocco, Singapore and Oz by myself. I know plenty people there so am never "alone", but it's also nice to have a travel bud too.

No. Sorry I didn't read it. Should I have?

Sometimes I only read the last page.

Well yea, it would have cut down on the typing for you.

Anytime during summer is fine with me, as that old walled medina was purposely made to circulate the air around the town, using the sea breeze. Marrakesh though? DAMN hot in June, it reached 45 last year. I usually do an overnight there for the market.

Essaouira is windy and cooler though, September onward sounds good . One night in Marrakesh and then off to Essaouira and the coast

[measurer]

Yea, could go the Marrakesh/Ryanair route, first stop Marrrakesh...
