Travel Guide - Fly Solo

Fly Solo: The 50 Best Places on Earth for a Girl to Travel Alone written by Teresa Rodriguez Williamson. 

I was drawn to this book because I am female who often travels alone. However, after flipping through the pages I realized it was a fun travel resource for anyone, whether you were traveling solo or with a circus full of people. The icing on the cake is that all of the suggestions are ideal for female solo travelers. 

The book features various destinations that are both fun and safe for female solo travelers. The author also categorizes travel opportunities based on what she calls CAWS: Cultural Opportunities, Activity Level, Weather Preference, and Social Interaction. You can pick through the book's offerings according to how strongly you feel about each category. My favorite part is the "Accessory" section listed under each destination. No, I am not talking accessories like Jimmy Choos or Chanel watches. They are basic but essential suggestions for what you should bring with you when you travel, making it informative for any type of traveler. 

I strongly urge you to visit your local bookstore and pickup this useful and easy to read travel guide, especially if you are a female solo traveler. The publisher's retailer price is $15.95.
