With its breezy reviews and insightful advice, 100 Places Every Woman Should Go
encourages women of any age to see the world — in a group, with a
friend, or solo — and inspires them to create their own list of dreams.
Based on her own explorations of many countries, states, and regions,
and on interviews with travelers, award-winning author Stephanie
Elizondo Griest highlights 100 special destinations and challenging
activities — from diving for pearls in Bahrain to racing a camel, yak,
or pony across Mongolia; to dancing with voodoo priestesses in Benin
and urban cowboys in Texas; to taking a mud bath in a volcano off the
coast of Colombia.
Divided into such sections as “Places Where Women
Made History,” “Places of Indulgence,” and “Places of Adventure,” this
guidebook includes timely contact information, resources, and
recommended reading.
“Ten Tips For Wandering Women” features safety
precautions plus pointers on haggling, packing, and staying
parasite-free. Vivid portraits of free spirits like Frida Kahlo (“A
tequila-slamming, dirty joke-telling smoker, this famous artist was
bisexual and beautiful”) help travelers expand their experience.
