Requirements
Sisters Traveling Solo™ was created to empower Sisters to travel solo; to travel in general. Our mission is to connect, empower, inspire, and support Sisters.
WE INSPIRE SISTERS - by creating a positive space on Facebook for like-minded Sisters to connect. From seeing photos of Sisters doing the things you have always wanted to do, to reading a post about someone who once was afraid to travel solo overcoming their fear while in Rome, to just getting words of encouragement from Sisters you have never met.
WE CONNECT SISTERS - through our group trips around the World and our meetups throughout the USA. We create opportunities for Sisters whom once were strangers to become inseparable travel buddies and life long friends.
WE EMPOWER SISTERS - by giving them the tools need to travel the World. Any member who is eligible to obtain a U.S. passport but are unable to obtain one due to financial hardship can sign up for our passport giveaway. Having an opportunity to get one for free, 100% funded by Sisters Traveling Solo. (passport giveaway now closed)
WE SUPPORT SISTERS - by traveling responsibly. In 2017 we introduced our Cultural Experiences where we work with and give our dollars to local women. And in 2018 we introduced our Sisters Travel Magazine a platform that will allow our Sisters who blog access to a greater audience.
