Editors at Travel + Leisure magazine have given New Zealand the title of best country for solo, independent travellers.
The magazine says it's where adventure seekers can trek glaciers and rainforests, bungee jump and jet boat and meet some of the "friendliest and most open-minded people in the world."
While a country's safety and security may be easy to evaluate, editors say they wanted to consider other factors that are important to solo travellers.
For instance, "…is the country you've chosen a happy place?"
"Is it a country where you'll be made to feel welcome, a nation where you can easily interact with the locals, where conversation flows easily even if you're struggling with a new language? For truly rewarding solo travel, it's crucial that you can connect with the culture and not feel like an outsider."
For that, editors say they consulted the Happy Planet Index which looks at environmental impact and human well-being in 151 countries.
For safety, editors consulted the Global Peace Index.
