45 Travel Adventures for Girls to Take when They're Rolling Solo ...

Some of my greatest life experiences have come from solo travel. I’ll admit, the first steps you take are tentative and it takes some confidence to make your first solo trip, but once you do, you really do discover that the world is your oyster. There are so many incredible things to see and do and experience across all continents that you can solo travel all your life and still feel you’ve underachieved. I’ve picked out some choice solo adventures – not nearly enough ^_^. Some of these adventures involve groups of people – you can sign up to them as an individual but there are safety considerations so it’s best to be in a group. Pack your bags and get ready to spread your travel wings.
