Welcome to SheTravel

The modern world has transformed the way in which we work and travel. Business and leisure trips have taken us to destinations where the culture and traditions differ from our own, sometimes to remote locations which carry higher risk to personal safety. The key to safe travel is knowledge of the destination, maintaining situational awareness and understanding the environment.

That is why SheTravel decided to bring together women who travel. To share experiences, create a secure space to ask questions from a network of fellow travellers and read interesting articles and top tips.

At SheTravel we know that all questions are important and sometimes simple advice may prevent situations becoming serious. Sometimes it’s easier to ask certain questions to peers who may have had similar concerns or experiences – good or bad. SheTravel also understands that some topics require a confidential environment and that risk appetite differs for each traveller.

SheTravel has created a women only network for modern business travel, allowing it’s members to share information to aid safe travel wherever your destination may be.

Why SheTravel

With an increase in the number of women travelling, it is important to not forget that the risk and threat landscape has also become more complex. It may take only a 6-hour flight to reacha  completely different culture and environment, where rules and social norms differ from our home country. That is why SheTravel brings together a community of women to share information and experiences to aid safe travel. Sometimes a little knowledge can make a big difference – knowing the risks is the first step to safety. So, the SheTravel concept is simple; to provide safety in the form of accessible information from our exclusive network of female travellers.

Safe travels,

SheTravel Team
