Years ago, it was rare to hear of Women Travelling the World alone but these days, the number of women doing just that has risen dramatically.

Women are realizing that by letting fear overcome them, they are missing out on valuable life experiences. They are no longer waiting for a partner or group of friends to get together for a trip, they are traveling on their own terms.

Solo travel sounds scary and dangerous but it’s really isn’t. After your first solo trip, you will want to go on more and more when you realize that it’s not very scary at all and the dangers can be avoided with some careful planning and taking some precautions.

Travel opens up so many doors and you can learn so much about the beautiful world around. Find a destination, research it, learn as much as possible about it, pack your bags, jump on a plane and go explore it!
