We are women around the globe of different colors, backgrounds, religious faiths, politics, world views, orientations, abilities, identities and experiences. But we share a love of travel and a belief that all women should be empowered with the skills and knowledge to explore beyond their boundaries and create a more inclusive world.
Will talk your ear off about random topics including: royal families, airplanes, Scandinavian culture and Eurovision. Sometimes all at once. Don’t worry it doesn’t make sense to her either.
