Whether you’re looking for a romantic weekend getaway, a trip full of adventure, or a fun girl’s weekend, Williamsburg has something for you. I spent a weekend here back in June and then returned this fall for five…
A few months ago I decided that I was going to go on my first solo camping trip in Shenandoah National Park. I experienced the same as most female travelers – some family and friends were supportive and others were vehemently opposed. Yes, camping alone as a woman can be dangerous but so can anything…
