Bit of background -DH and I have booked the summer holiday but he really wants to do an activity holiday as well for which amazingly we have both budget and enough holiday time. Last year, he went surfing in Spain and has now booked a kite surfing holiday in Egypt. I am fine with this as long as I get to go away too this year but we can't do this holiday together (no childcare back home) and also my idea of the perfect holiday is lying on a beach and reading my way through the Richard & Judy bookclub list. SO, I am going somewhere on my own - being on my own doesn't worry me in the slightest, would go with a friend but chances of any of us being able to coordinate work, holiday, children's requirements etc are slim.
Wonder if the collective wisdom of mumsnet can come up with some suggestions? Doesn't have to be just beach, shopping also very welcome! Dubai has been suggested as an option but neither dh not I are sure that this is such a good idea for a single woman? Other possibility is maybe NY or Boston, have several friends there and it certainly takes care of the shopping, although maybe not the beach. Open to all other suggestions however!???? Budget of about £500 plus have a slush fund for shopping if I go somewhere where there is any. Computer at home broken so if I don't respond overnight, it won't be because I don't want to!
