HER WELLNESS HOUSE

"As women, we need to give ourselves time to reset. We must take the necessary time alone to learn who we are." 

Cole Banks, Founder of Her Wellness House

BALI: 2024

The stunning islands are very relaxed and offer an experience which can best be described as a getaway on a desert island but with high quality accommodation, spectacular food, excellent service and an extensive range of activities.

Are you ready to experience the great migration? An unforgettable natural event in Africa, in which millions of animals, mostly wildebeest and zebras, migrate north from Tanzania. Home to the "big five"; seeing he untouched scenery and habitat in Serengeti National Park is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Zambia - Apart from being voted as the safest country on the continent to visit, it boasts some of the most untouched and wild landscapes in Africa. 

Zimbabwe - Home to some of the world's most incredible natural wonders and wildlife. 

Beyond stunning beaches and magical temples, Bali has virtually every kind of natural beauty. Glorious mountainous areas with lush greenery, scenic lakes, gorgeous waterfalls, iconic rice fields, flower gardens.

"I remember reading a post online that discouraged Black women from traveling solo."

This post sparked something in Cole Banks, a Black woman who frequently traveled around the world solo. And with that, Sisters Traveling Solo was born.
