Thinking of solo travel but not sure where to start? START HERE!
Do you ever agonize about what travel clothes to buy? Or flight to book? Or travel insurance?
Putting together what you need to take a trip should be fun, not a chore.
I've done a lot of the heavy lifting: I've narrowed your choices and picked the best of the best - items I've tried or that have been highly recommended to me by other travelers.
PLEASE NOTE: Every effort is made to keep articles up to date but the changing coronavirus situation has made it impossible to provide information about the pandemic or travel restrictions. You'll find updated information from the CDC about travel conditions by country but please check all appropriate sources before you travel as situations can change in minutes.
The first item is women's travel clothing - but there's more to it than just liking a color or a cut. What kind of trip are you taking? What do local people wear? What season is it? I've asked - and answered - these questions for you.
Then there are travel accessories - from travel bags to travel health and safety products - that help make our travels so much more pleasant and hassle-free!
And finally, the jobs and skills that will help you pay for it all.

Hi! I'm Leyla Giray Alyanak and through Women on the Road I've been providing inspiration and advice on solo female travel since 2007. A former foreign correspondent and diplomat, I've had the privilege to visit more than 90 countries (and no, I'm not finished yet!).
But the world has changed and the virus is keeping many of us home.
For those who CAN travel without putting themselves or others at risk, you'll find plenty of inspiration in these pages (most of which were written pre-Covid).
For those who CANNOT travel... this is the perfect time for armchair escape and to plan for when we're on the road again.
Whichever it is, if you're over 50, curious and independent, a traveler at heart and in love with the world, you're in the right place. New to Women on the Road?
