Amazing Women In Travel
Happy Women’s History Month! All month I’ll be bringing you tips for traveling as a woman, historical women in travel, and how you can support more women while you travel. Right now, more than ever, it’s important to support women in all facets of business, because we may be seeing fewer women being able to start restaurants, tour companies, and other things we use when we travel.

Stephanie Jones – founder of Cultural Heritage Economic Alliance Inc.
Stephanie is reshaping the travel and tourism industry to better serve underrepresented small Black and brown businesses, creating more equitable, diverse, and inclusive opportunities. Not only does this help independent travel entrepreneurs, but helps to bring tourist dollars to local communities, instead of giant corporations.
Tracey Friley – founder of Tracey Friley Travel
Tracey is lovely travel professional who started her career by taking people to Paris and then continued to bring people there while adding other destinations, and helping Black girls get their first passports and go on their first international trips. Most POC, and especially Black women, have to traverse difficult barriers to obtain a passport, so having someone to help you through the process is very helpful and encourages travel when you already have someone to show you the ropes on your inauguration trip.
