Hi Solo Traveler, Here's What's New for May

Published: Sun, 05/16/21

Hi there,

Here's your round up of posts from Solo Traveler for May!

We had a great time at our meet-up on the topic of Senior Solo Travel. Members of the Solo Traveler Insiders shared their experiences in various destinations and with different tours and cruises. Coming up on Wednesday, our guest for the next edition of the Insiders Speaker Series will be Elena Paschinger, author of The Creative Traveler's Handbook. From wood carving to cooking to dancing the tango, and so much more, Elena will talk to us about Adding Creativity to Our Solo Travels.

For more information on upcoming events and membership benefits, click here.

On June 13th you'll receive our monthly list of deals from companies that serve solo travelers well. Browse through their offerings in both the Advisory and on the Solo Traveler Deals page as you plan future trips. This is a good time to lock in prices that will undoubtedly increase as travel opens up again.

Take good care,
