Why Solo Women Travel Is Growing

By Dorothy Foster


These days, more and more women are on the road, traveling on their own. In the past, they joined up with coach tours and with other people in groups. But solo women travel is something which has grown in a big way. There are so many places to explore, and so many things that one can do in different parts of the world.

There are many reasons why a woman decides to be more independent like this. Sometimes, it is a decision she has made to actually be more confident and grow within herself. She wants to make sure that she is moving on from some trauma that she has suffered from. It could be a loss of a loved one or a divorce that has set her back in life.

A lot of young women, especially will head off this way for as long as a year to work in a school, teaching English to kids. They may help in the community, doing some farming. When they volunteer they will have a place to stay. At times, they will stay with families, and this can be an experience which they won't forget about. It can enrich their lives.

They will learn so much from this before heading off to a new job back home or to college where this is simply life as normal. They will always think back to the time when they lived with a local family who were so poor, but rich in love at the same time. This is what so many women travellers take home with them. It is more than just seeing the sights with a bunch of other travellers.

Many women decide to start their travels with another women or with a group, but pull out of this, finding that it is restrictive or that they need their space. Although you are away in another country, you are not completely independent because the group is organizing everything for you. It is not easy to get away and have a little quiet time.

Traveling like this has been said to be the university of life. Young women are encouraged to take part in a journey which is safe should she be on a gap year. Often, young people don't have an idea of what they want to do. As they have different experiences in their travels, they also get a better idea of what they want to do. They will also get to build their character.

Many people become more sure of themselves. They build confidence and self esteem. A lot of people decide to take the challenge at a time of their life when things are not going well for them. However, things begin to change as they begin to have positive experiences as well as those which can be challenging but which build confidence at the same time.

It is a lot easier to take your phone out of your pocket when you are stuck for direction or you need to know a certain phrase. It is scary to think what people would have done without the use of a phone when traveling solo. This is also a good idea for when you don't have access to a flashlight.
