174 women still writing the road — every blog verified by hand, August 2026

Solo female travel is the biggest genre travel blogging ever produced. This page is its census.

I have kept this list since 2019, and I have been on the maker's side of this community since 2003 — long enough to have shared press trips, border posts and bad bus rides with many of the women behind these sites. In August 2026 I re-checked every one of the 320 blogs this list has ever carried, one by one. 174 are alive. 146 are gone — parked, sold, or abandoned mid-story. What remains is the largest hand-verified collection of living solo female travel blogs on the internet.

A woman with a backpack, standing alone in a place the news told her not to go — that image built this entire genre. The writers below built it one post at a time.

The 146 That Went Silent

More than a third of the blogs this list once carried no longer exist. Some were among the best writing this genre produced. They ended the way blogs end — a job, a baby, a burnout, an algorithm that stopped rewarding real experience — and nobody announced it. I keep the count as a matter of record, the same way I keep a ledger of every border I ever crossed. To the 201 still writing: the road is better documented because of you.
