Travel Writing and Literature Diverse Aspects of Tourism Research Recreation, Leisure, Wilderness Management

Abstract

This chapter calls attention to the positive benefits that women can find through travel. Using the pooled results of two separate qualitative studies into women's experiences of independent travel (one on Australian women's solo pleasure travel and the other on New Zealand women's business travel), the benefits of travel, and the opportunities for empowerment and resistance that such travel may afford are explored.
