What Women Travelers Need to Know
Way back when the web was young, or almost nonexistent, we published a newsletter that arrived in the mail. Another newsletter from that time - the mid-nineties - was Journeywoman. I started corresponding with its editor, Evelyn Hannon, whom I had the pleasure of meeting when we were both traveling in Ireland 10 years ago.
If I recall correctly, she had just launched her website, journeywoman.com, at that time. It’s now an extensive site and has been reviewed by The New York Times and other major media. And it has lots of travel tips for and by women. If you want to know whether to take a cab or the bus when you land at the airport in Prague, you’ll find out here. I checked the advice on restaurants in my hometown, Santa Fe, and found the recommendations were right on. Men will surely appreciate some of the advice offered, but there’s info especially for women, such a matters of safety, what to wear and which personal items aren’t available in stores.
Do visit Journeywoman, even if you aren’t currently planning any trips. It’s professionally done but also lighthearted and fun.
