Elsewhere, Elizabeth Matsangou explores the world of solo travel, which has soared in recent years. According to Intrepid Travel – an adventure holiday company – over 50 percent of its travellers now go alone. Women are responsible for much of this surge in solo travel. With more tools for safety, a stronger sense of empowerment and a growing travel community, they are feeling braver than ever.
