Hi, Solo Traveler! Here's What's New for June

Published: Sun, 06/19/22

Here's what's new and notable at Solo Traveler this month.

This month's guest in our Solo Traveler Insiders Speaker Series provided us with lots of food for thought on the topics of regenerative tourism, sustainable travel, and how our travel decisions can benefit local communities. On Wednesday night, we talked to Sharilyn Amy about how to ensure we are aligning our personal values with responsible, conscious travel. If that sounds serious, I can assure you, there was also lots of laughter involved! If you couldn't make it, you can enjoy the video. And if you haven't joined the Insiders yet, just click below to sign up and get access to the recording.
