About me

Introduction	Like Freya Stark, adventuress extraordinaire of the early 20th Century, this blog is for women who travel regularly for work and pleasure to developing countries, unusual destinations or just downright hostile countries. It’s a place to find top travel tips, swap practical advice and share your experience. I used to work in international development but struggled to find practical, simple advice - what to pack, what to expect - for work trips abroad. Female colleagues said they had the same problem. You’ll find tips here for travelling in style, safely and confidently. We think Freya would have wished she’d known some of this stuff too...
