Hiya sarah
yep ive travelled alone to turkey and egypt many times but i have always been met at the airport by friends.
The only thing i will suggest is that as you are travelling to a muslim country, just try to respect their culture. I dont know what Kurdistan is like, or even if it can be really classed as a holiday resort as we know them, by that i mean spain or greece and the like.
When in Egypt, i did cover my hair, and as i was with an egyptian guy and it was his home town, i didnt want to do anything that would bring shame on his family. the fact that i was foreign made everyone want to come and say hi, and we got invited to dinner alot, as they dont see many foreigners there, in fact i was the only one i ever saw in the time i was there.

You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.
