Welcome to Travello’s Featured Travel Bloggers To Follow This Year Series!
Our second addition to our travel blogger series has arrived! For this sequel, we decided to introduce some phenomenal female travel bloggers, vloggers, and photographers who we recommend you follow to ignite that travel spark. As promised, our lists don’t include famed travel social influencers alone; instead, we’ve compiled a combination of very popular influencers and others that are just in the beginning stages.
“Being a female and not having a travel companion shouldn’t stop anyone from taking a plane to an unknown place. It’s a reason to explore the world with eager eyes and an open heart”.
Some people might have the idea that solo female travellers are few, rare and brave, however, if you go to any search engine, social media platform, or image collection database and type the word ‘solo traveller’, the search will result in a massive list of both male and female travellers. There are also countless Facebook groups specifically for females travelling solo with thousands of members, pictures of women that fill pages on stock image sites, and hundreds of articles popping up from avid female solo travel bloggers. Case in point, it is not rare anymore for females to travel alone.
Even though we agree with the idea that women travelling solo are brave, we don’t think it is because the world is something to fear due to gender, we see them as brave for their ability to acknowledge and pursue their passion. In the end, travelling comes down to an individual’s desire to visit new cultures and experience the world for what it has to offer; and gender doesn’t play a role when we admire the cultures of the world. Females are just like any other travellers; they pick a destination, wander, explore, and experience the culture of that destination the same way.
The women on this list have a purpose tied in with their passion. They are trying to find their uniqueness in their individual desire for travelling, chasing adventure and fulfilling their dreams. Some of them make a point to make connections with the people during their trip, while other bloggers choose to look at the sustainability of travel and educate others on its importance. No matter the focus of impact, these women have us inspired to follow our dreams. They show that limits don’t exist and if we want to make our mark on the world while travelling, we can.
So sit on the edge of your seat and get ready to be blown away by these adventurous female solo travellers.

Not all those who wander are lost - J.R.R. Tolkien
"This above quote describes my passion for travelling. A travel lover is no different to a wanderer, and I consider myself one, but it doesn't mean that I am lost because I travel to wander and be wondered by everything this world could offer! Riyadh has been my home for ten years but since quitting my job last year, I became a person with no permanent address but we're all citizens of the world, right? Some people may not have goals set out, but that is okay- it's the journey that matters."
Have you ever felt like travelling can sometimes be messy? You’re not alone. Things hardly ever go as planned during travels, and A Truthful Traveler was created out of my mishaps during my adventures around the globe.

I am an educator turned travel blogger, wife and fur mommy, and love sharing the ups and downs of travels: from road trips to backpacking adventures, and from tropical destinations to cold winter hikes. I can usually be found outside, in nature, where I feel the most at home. Part of my mission has become to share all the beautiful places I have been in the hopes that it will get others interested in all that the outdoors has to offer, and with their growing love they will do their best to protect it!
“Travel is hardly ever perfect. Like everything else in life, it is filled with bumps along the way, mistakes and hilarious moments. That is why I started A Truthful Traveler, to paint an honest picture of travel and show the beautiful mess that it usually is!”
