As you can understand from my articles and posts on social media I do most of my trips with my kids. You already know that traveling with a local allows you to discover all the best places, especially in a city. That is exactly the experience I had on my trip to La Rochelle as I decided to use La Voyageuse, a travel platform where women host other women in their homes.
You can read about my personal experience using this platform at the end of the article. La Voyageuse is a Bordeaux based start-up that connects female solo travelers to female hostesses. The hostesses are volunteers offering free accommodation in their house could be a sofa or a room simply out of their love of hosting and the desire to help other women on their solo traveling journey. The idea behind this startup is to provide female solo travelers a safe way to travel.
The startup was founded last year and has been getting attention from the traveling industry and even won some important prizes. Christina thought, rightly so, that many of my female readers are quite adventurous and enjoy discovering special places through the eyes of a local. Also, a lot of my readers travel alone, so providing a safer travel option is a great value I can give you gals. I must admit that this idea really resonated with my personal experience. In my early 20s, I used to solo travel quite a lot and I remember the hesitations and insecurity I felt when arriving alone at a hostel in a new city.
Also, I feel that when you travel to a new place for just a few days you rarely have the opportunity to exchange with locals in the region. So this platform gives women a unique opportunity to travel safely and interact with local women who are very welcoming in their nature. The fee is used to finance the platform and. To support moms, this platform givers you the option to travel with one child under 12 yo.
Now listen to the best news!!! I managed to get from Christina the founder of the company a special discount just for my readers and followers.
