Female, Solo, and Looking to Travel? Read Unchaperoned

Ari started Unchaperoned as a well-traveled 22-year-old college student who wanted to help other women get the information they needed to explore the world even if they couldn’t find a companion. The result is a candid and exhaustive guide that covers city sights, hostel suggestions, convincing your parents to let you travel, and self-defense tips. She covers where she got the most harassment from men (Istanbul and Rome) without letting that interfere with her appreciation of those cities, and her local knowledge would be good advice for any traveler, male or female. She’s been slowing down her posts this year – she blames it on her new job and simply running out of topics – but what she’s left behind will help solo travelers go a long way.
