Wingin? It Through Europe: A Women's Guide To Vagabonding Europe

Whether you are a single woman looking for a little adventure to spice up your life or just interested in doing some research to plan your own adventure, the main lesson I want to teach from this book is simply to not let fears inhibit you from accomplishing your goals. For me, I despise the idea that I am limited to experiences simply based upon the idea that women traveling solo are targets for crime and danger. I can’t accurately state how many times people asked me “Haven’t you seen the movie Hostile?!” before I left for Europe. Personally, I feel I face comparable risks living everyday life. My point is, you could live life avoiding all factors that can contribute to danger, and be successful, but then get hit by a bus after visiting your doctor for your annual Pap. Because obviously if you don’t do that on a yearly basis you will get cervical cancer. And high blood pressure. Let’s not forget to exercise daily, floss our teeth, and balance our check books! Life is too short to avoid complications, and face it: that’s impossible. So embrace each day and the obstacles you come across. As the French say, “C’est la vie!” (That’s life!)
