Every solo woman traveler carries a story — sometimes of courage, sometimes of discovery, always worth sharing.
There’s a quiet kind of strength in setting out to see the world on your own.
Solo women travelers embrace freedom, curiosity, and the thrill of the unknown.
They return with stories that can spark another woman’s first step into adventure.
101 Travel Stories of Inspiring Solo Women Travelers is a special series on the SmartDory Travel and Food Blog.
We launched the series on International Women’s Day 2021 to celebrate and inspire women who travel the world solo.
Why We Share These Stories
These journeys are more than itineraries and photos.
They are about breaking boundaries, finding hidden corners of the world, and proving that adventure has no limits.
sharing them, we hope to build a community where women feel encouraged, supported, and inspired to travel solo.
