About this listen
The January issue samples safety and security of the woman solo traveler (as well as women traveling together in pairs or very small groups) - the quest to achieve safe and secure, relatively comfortable, unencumbered, and unimpeded travel throughout the world. Unfortunately, travel today for anyone, and particularly for women, has increasing challenges, what with growing terror threats, the imposition of severe and strict cultural and religious restrictions of women's rights and freedoms, as well as the apparent decreasing tolerance for cultural and religious differences and diversity across certain borders around the world.
Introduction to "Travel Tales of Women Alone: Hassles & Assaults"
Part 1:
"Travel Tales of Women Alone: Hassles & Assaults" is divided into two parts simply because there is so much material. Part 1 appears here in the current Travel Tales Monthly No. 7 Jan 2015 issue and serves as a general introduction to this subject matter.
Part 2:
The unabridged and expanded forthcoming "Travel Tales of Women Alone: Hassles & Assaults", part of the Travel Psychologist Travel Tales Series, is a larger volume and includes both Parts 1 and 2.
Women traveling alone and surviving the many hassles and occasional assaults is challenging in the least. For women, alone travel mostly is exciting and relatively safe. But for many women traveling in some countries, particularly in North Africa and the Middle East, can often be traumatic and downright dangerous. I have tales of women constantly doing battle with those who would bother and hassle them. And some women, sad to say, have simply disappeared from the marketplace, never to be seen again. To be a woman and to travel alone in such forbidding places is simply not for the faint of heart. Unfortunately, many young women simply do not "get it", in that they are rather naively unaware and must be exceedingly careful.
