About this Event
Open to women only
Workshop consisting of writing prompts and speaking on travel experiences from a perspective of a solo female traveller with disability, with practical tips for traveling in the context of life changes.
During this session, we will explore:
- How to begin (or return to) travel later in life
- Navigating travel with a disability or changes to our bodies
- The emotional landscape of perimenopause and menopause
- Building resilience and connection through solo experiences
Whether you’re dreaming of your first solo trip, adjusting to a new phase of life, or seeking a sense of freedom and possibility, this session invites you to reimagine what’s possible—at any age, in any body, and at any stage.
About the facilitator
Joanna (Asia in Polish) is a former museum tour guide, Meetup hike organiser and single mother who began solo travel in her mid-40s on a shoestring budget. She hopes to share how travel can support wellbeing during these transitions, offering space for reflection, empowerment and renewed self-trust.
