    Some of My Favorite Solo Female Travel Destinations

    Hey there! I'm Mikala.

    There’s always been something about international travel for me that’s filled my heart like nothing else. In 2022 my world fell apart following a broken engagement, and I picked myself up again by chasing more travel experiences, including hiking the Camino de Santiago solo. Now I've been to 30 countries and have been solo traveling for 10 years.

    If you’re here because your heart is calling you to new places and you're looking for tips and inspiration as a solo female traveler, then you’re in the right place.
