(EMAILWIRE.COM, March 02, 2010 ) BOZEMAN, Mont. — AdventureWomen, Inc. offers life-changing adventures for active women over 30. The concept of “girlfriend getaways” is now a mainstream trend in the travel industry. The idea of ‘relational travel’---where women choose to travel with important women in their lives like sisters, mothers, sisters-in-law, cousins, etc.,---is now starting to gain quite a bit of attention in the industry as well.
“One of my fondest memories from my trip, the Iceland Discovery Adventure, was of my mom after completing her first EVER long hike,” said Amber Marcum, previous guest on and AdventureWomen trip. “She was so exhilarated and proud and truly enjoyed where she was and what she was doing. I have always loved the outdoors and hiking, but it was at this moment that I realized "she gets it now". I was so proud of her and felt so excited that she had stepped into this outdoor world that I had long been experiencing and loving--and she loved it too!”
Women are more independent, have more disposable income, make up a large sector of the travel industry, and have the freedom and power to travel solo. Traveling with your favorite women relatives during a womenÂ’s only getaway can create memories and meaningful experiences that may not be found with other travel experiences, and women are starting to recognize that. AdventureWomen, Inc. offers adventures that challenge women to push past their own personal boundaries while creating a fun and safe environment.
“I think that often we don't realize our own strength until we are put into a situation that is out of our comfort zone,” said Marcum. “Only then do we realize what we are truly capable of. It is so important to share experiences with other women of all ages and backgrounds in order to realize that there really is something out there that truly unites us---and we see what strong and beautiful women there are in this world.”
