In July, Girl about the Globe held the first ever virtual summit for solo female travellers! The summit featured expert sessions, inspiring stories, and practical advice, all to help you travel solo with confidence, freedom, and impact.
If you missed it, you can still get access to 3 of the sessions for FREE.
Why a Solo Female Travel Summit?
Ever wished you could feel more confident travelling solo, learn how to travel better or use your solo trip to make a positive impact in the world? That’s why I created the Solo Female Travel Summit.
It’s your chance to learn directly from women who’ve been where you are, whether you’re dreaming of your first solo trip, looking to travel with more meaning, or curious how to turn your passion into something bigger.
Over three days/modules, you’ll get access to interviews, real stories, and practical tips from 10 inspiring speakers. From travel creators and entrepreneurs to changemakers.
And the best part? You get 3 sessions for free! So you can get a feel for the event to see if you want to learn more!
It’s all online. So you can watch as many times as you want or read the key takeaways if you’re short on time. Plus you get access to bonuses and discounts too (if you upgrade to the all access pass!)
