Bonus Episode - Deviant Travel Heroines

For one last Women’s History Month celebration, we teamed up with Steph and Andrea from ‘All the Shit I’ve Learned Abroad’ to share tales of our favourite travel heroines. All four of us are avid solo female adventuresses, but perhaps we wouldn’t be if it wasn’t for the women who paved the way. From Isabelle Eberhardt’s cross-dressing nomadic life in North Africa, to Aloha Wanderwell’s seven-year road trip, Robyn Davidson’s solo trek through the Australian desert, and Jeanne Baret’s circumnavigation of the world, these are some of the most bad-ass, intrepid and inspiring women around. So strap on your metaphorical boots and imagine the world outside your window in this special bonus episode. And, if you want some travel reading to keep you occupied or distracted – whichever you need in these times, we’ve got you covered!
