100 Places Every Woman Should Go

100 Places Every Woman Should Go

by Stephanie Elizondo Greist

Stephanie Elizondo Griest, a fearless and enthusiastic traveler, starts this great book off with Ten Tips for Wandering Women* and then lays out ten chapters that include Places of Powerful Women in History (Madonna Sightings around the World, Sappho), Places of Adventure (Places to Swim with sea creatures), Places of Indulgence (Famed Chocolate sites), Places of Struggle and Renewal (Ethiopia, Cambodia)and there are mud bath volcanoes, pearl diving in Bahrain, champagne tours in France and dozens more that add up to the one hundred places a woman should experience.

*The Ten Tips include networking with third-cousins-twice-removed, avoiding jail or being thrown off a train by crying, fending off lecherous men with the line, “I'm meeting for my boyfriend here. He is a lieutenant in the U.S. Marine Corps,” saving your passport number and other critical info in an email folder, and how to store money safely while on the road.

This book is a combination of fantasy and practical tips whether you want to experience the adventures first-hand or in your reading chair with your imagination.
