Summary: Inspiring tales
Review: As a solo female traveller, I found this book to capture my heart and desire to explore the world. This book is divided into serveral short stories written by women who dared to journey on their own. Each story was touching in it's own way, and made me realize that while few cultures understand why a woman would want to travel independantly, all cultures provide insight into the human psyche. To put it bluntly, it is a great read; I misssed my train stop because I was so riveted!

Summary: Inspirational!
Review: Ever since I was a little girl it has always been my dream to travel but it never seemed like a realistic way spend my life. After reading only a few of the short stories featured in this book I felt re-inspired. I'm now more sure than ever of what I want to do with my life. Any girl (or guy) who has an interest in traveling has to read this book.

Summary: Highly Recommend
Review: I have given this book as a gift several times. I have read it several times. It is especially good for a busy person who says they do not have time to "get into" a book, because they can sit down and read one essay at a sitting. It is inspiring to see what so many women have done, and also a great way to live vicariously if you aren't going to be traveling anytime soon. Many of these women are truly inspirational.

Summary: A Great Book
Review: This is a fascinating book written by dozens of women who have travelled the world. As a man, I found it absorbing to get the female perspective on many places I have travelled to. These girls are true feminists. They make their own way and use their wits and skills to navigate through countries that are daunting for anyone to visit, let alone a single female. A great read, and I can highly recommend More Women Travel by Rough Guides as well.
