Palm Springs was a city of scandal and partying of some of the most well-known stars and producers of the late 1950s, including the Rat Pack, Elvis Presley, and Marilyn Monroe.

All these adventures sound like incredible fun but if you're the independent type and feel like striking out on your own - if you've ever dreamed of backpacking around the world - let me share with you how I did it, for three years. I've put all the practical stuff on safety, packing, gear, relationships (everything you need to know!) up on my site a Women on the Road. I've also got a site where you can Ask me a Question - and I'll answer right online. Welcome all!

Women travelling - there are some many fabulous opportunties for women travellers out there, from women's B&Bs ( have you tried the one in Florence?) or tours especially for women - last year I cruised the Canal du Midi with Bushwise women and went to Morocco for two weeks with Venus Adventures. Check out my blog at www.womentravelblog.com and if you are coming to New Zealand - let me know!

We are very excited to be participating in the Go Green Expo in Los Angeles later this month. Come by Booth #310 between January 22 & 24 at the Los Angeles Convention Center at 1201 South Figueroa St., South Hall J, and watch some terrific video of the eco-adventures we offer at Alderwood Retreat. Naturalist guided hikes, guided sea kayaking past bird rookeries and sea otter colonies, marine tours to see porpoise & whales, voluntourism projects like cleaning up our outlying beaches, historical & cultural tours, cooking classes, and SO much more are all available at our eco-lodge in the pristine Alaskan wilderness on Kodiak Island. Girlfriends Getaways will treat guests to one free massage and optional kelp body wrap during their visit! The first folks to e-mail us will recieve free passes into the show!!! Hope to see you there!
