Best Women
Travel Websites

Ouwerkerk has traveled the world fearlessly and
with common sense for many years. |
| After years of being
relatively unrepresented, there are now an absolute
plethora of great websites and blogs hosted by
women alone or collaboratively. Articles, posts,
resources, and other advice are offered by women
in all situations around the world—from the
perspective of adventurous single women, professionals,
mothers, digital nomads, LGBT perspectives implicit
and explicit, and generally from as many angles
as can found. Often the websites and blogs are some
of the best for providing information that speaks
to what we call cultural immersion around the world,
but there is absolutely no limit to the angles
covered.
Likewise, many women blog hosts speak to all sexes
and do not necessarily define their travels and
travel sites primarily by their gender.
Apologies to all those whom we do not yet list,
as we will be adding more and more websites and
blogs to this rapidly expanding list over time. Please feel free to pass on your recommendations in our comments section,
as it is truly hard to keep up with the tremendous
resources in every form available on every device!
The distinction between websites, blogs, and even rich social media presences are becoming more and more indistinguishable, so there is literally no end to the possibilities for expression and communication on matters relating to women travel, solo and group. |
Geotraveler's Niche is a blog hosted by the multi-talented and award-winning Renaissance woman Lola Akinmade �kerstr�m. The blog is inspiring for all those interested in travel regardless of gender, but she also puts emphasis on the experience of travel as a women, and speaks of her experience traveling and living abroad as a woman of color. Photographs of her travels are of a quality far beyond what you will find on most blogs, her posts and reflective essays run deep and are very perceptive, and her boundless energy as an author and on other projects sets the gold standard in our view.
