In Asia, South America, Europe, there are more travellers travelling alone. For 15 USD you can have a good hotel. And very easy to travel to another city when you dont like it. Best tips i got from travellers when i choose another destination. Most people travel in circles, you see them in Thailand, than Laos, Vietnam or Cambodja. again. Or you join them. There are whole cities where travellers stay long time like Ciang Mai, Bangkok, Phnom Penh, Koh Samui, Tulum, Cartagena, .. There you meet for 100% sure other travellers. While in the grand canyon i didn't see any backpacker.
