Who's The Author?

I'm Alexa West, and I lived in Southeast Asia for ten years.

I'm a leading expert on traveling the region, with 5 bestselling guidebooks to prove it.

I'm a professional hotel reviewer, and I don’t gatekeep. If I love it, it’s in here.

I'm obsessed with crime and safety, so these routes aren’t just pretty—they’re built for safe solo travel.

I've been a broke backpacker, I’ve been a bougie resort girl—you’ll find options for every budget inside.

I wrote this book for my best friends, slid it across the table and said:

“Here. Steal my trip.”

Now, its your turn.

The Solo Girl's Travel Guide

GUIDEBOOK Q&A

Free guides… forever? Real?

Yes. You’ll always get the latest edition of this book—free.

Whenever we release an update, you’ll have the option to download the newest version at no extra cost. What a steal.

How much money do I need to travel Southeast Asia?

You can do it for as little as $1,000/month if you’re staying in hostels, riding buses and trains, and living off street food (and yes—that’s really pushin’ it, but it’s possible).

If you can swing $1,500/month or more, that’s where things get way more comfortable—think private rooms, the occasional boutique hotel, and saying yes to some bucket-list tours.

Once you hit around $2,000/month, you can live like a queen—spa days, nice hotels, cocktails at sunset, and still way cheaper than a month in Europe or the U.S.

Bottom line: Southeast Asia is as affordable or as luxe as you want it to be. This guide will show you how to do both.

Is this book only for solo travelers?

No, couples and friends love this book too—but it’s optimized for solo female travelers who want to feel confident, prepared, and safe.

Can I plan my whole trip with just this book?

Thousands of women of all ages have used this book to plan their dream SEA (southeast asia) trip—on their budget, their timeline, their terms.

You’ll get daily itineraries, safety tips, hotel picks, clickable links, and all the local recs—without the 100 open tabs.

But if you want the whole trip planned for you—no thinking required—I recommend bundling this guide with one of my expert Southeast Asia Itineraries that recommends all the hotels, tours, and detailed itineraries.

I'm afraid of everything -- should I still go?

Welcome to my world. I’m a full-time travel author who’s afraid of planes, boats, and most things. I wrote this book to teach you how to travel smart, not scared.

What's the refund policy?

Due to the nature of this digital product (and the fact that we’ve been perfecting it since 2018), we don’t offer refunds.

But honestly? We're pretty certain - based on the thousands of women who call this book "their bible" - that you're going to love it.

    An awesome book for any backpacker with a touch of glam
    This book is awesome for anyone who just loves to grab a backpack and go. With loads of insights that you wouldn’t find on a normal travel book, Alexa’s writing is easy to read and very entertaining. I literally finished the book in a day.Plus the pages are not crammed with info so you have space to write some notes of other places you want to go or direction notes. Oh, and did I mention this fits in your bag? Yep no need for a thousand books weighing you down.
