Solo traveling is on the upswing, especially among women over 50. This workshop gives solo travelers basic information on how to plan their trips. Mary Bartnikowski plans to show photographs from 34 countries and to share her own experience solo traveling in Asia, South America, Europe, and Central America. She will recommend countries that are easy to travel in, show how to get good prices on flights, and plan an itinerary. Interested participants will be invited to apply for yearly retreats in Europe and Mexico for six people. Participants will leave the presentation knowing they can travel solo safely and start their solo trip sooner than they might think. Planning accommodation, choosing a low season, and designing an itinerary is easier with an expert's advice.
