About This Item
Hardback. New. With its breezy reviews and insightful advice, 100 Places Every Woman Should Go encourages women of any age to see the world in a group, with a friend, or solo and inspires them to create their own list of dreams. Based on her own explorations of many countries, states, and regions, and on interviews with travelers, award-winning author Stephanie Elizondo Griest highlights 100 special destinations and challenging activities from diving for pearls in Bahrain to racing a camel, yak, or pony across Mongolia; to dancing with voodoo priestesses in Benin and urban cowboys in Texas; to taking a mud bath in a volcano off the coast of Colombia. Divided into such sections as "Places Where Women Made History," "Places of Indulgence," and "Places of Adventure," this guidebook includes timely contact information, resources, and recommended reading. "Ten Tips For Wandering Women" features safety precautions plus pointers on haggling, packing, and staying parasite-free. Vivid portraits of free spirits like Frida Kahlo ("A tequila-slamming, dirty joke-telling smoker, this famous artist was bisexual and beautiful") help travelers expand their experience.
Synopsis
Seeking the tranquility of a Buddhist meditation center? The raucousness of a rumba club?

Discover the world's best places to: * commune with the feisty spirits of heroines like Hatshepsut, Sappho, Catherine the Great, and Frida Kahlo * race a camel, yak, or pony across the Mongolian steppe * dive for pearls in Bahrain * take a mud bath in a volcano off the coast of Colombia * dance with Voodoo priestesses in Benin and urban cowboys in Texas * roast in a steamy banya with a bottle of vodka (or two) in Moscow Divided into sections like "Powerful Women and Their Places in History," "Places of Indulgence," and "Places of Adventure," this guidebook includes contact information, resources, and recommended reading. "Ten Tips For Wandering Women" features safety advice plus pointers on how to stop departing airplanes and avoid getting tossed off Trans-Siberian trains for not having your papers in order.
