Solo Sisters

Promotional mockup for the Solo Sisters Travel mobile app, designed to connect solo women travelers with nearby locals and fellow travelers. Two smartphones are displayed at an angle against a soft blue, yellow, and orange gradient background. One screen shows a browse page with user profiles filtered by interests and proximity, while the other displays an individual profile featuring a traveler in a field of orange flowers, along with location, languages, and shared interests. Curved text reads, “Explore the world through Sisterhood,” and the colorful Solo Sisters Travel logo appears in the lower right.

Solo female travel is celebrated as an experience of self-discovery, independence, and self-empowerment – but it remains an endeavor not all women feel comfortable taking. Be it concerns of safety, social isolation, or lack of confidence navigating uncertainty, women want to travel the world, but are less likely to do so alone.


A community-generated travel toolkit and connection app, Solo Sisters is on a mission to change that. The platform is an international Sisterhood of solo female travelers, whether they’re out exploring the world or back at home. Born from the need to initiate intentional connection, it provides a safe space for women to bond over shared trip interests, personality traits, and bucket list goals.

Solo Sisters is centered in intersectional feminism, made for anyone who identifies as a woman, and provides the resources and knowledge to navigate the nuances of adventuring on your own.
