July 9, 2008 (FPRC) -- They're the eccentric, the rogue, the savvy, and the quick-witted. They're the girls brave enough to take the world by the reigns and ride it to where they want to go and what they want to see. But is it safe to be a girl and travel? It seems each decade that passes is scarier and more threatening than the last in foreign countries.
Risk, risk, risk. A monosyllabic four-letter word with an enormous definition. Friends might tell you to take mace, mothers might try and hide your passport, and fathers might hire a male detective to follow you around, even in the bathroom. But how about taking another avenue to safe travel...why not plan ahead. It seems like a novel idea to many, but the key to safety is preparation. Why not do some research and see where you are going, what you will see, where you will stay, and what other people thought of the place before you even buy your airplane ticket. What better place to look than the Internet?
You'd need to find a website that contained more than just information, that could show you through videos and pictures the great beyond that seems so foreign and surreal. A website that could provide the very itinerary both parents and antsy travelers alike could take satisfaction in. I have found this site in a new Travel Blog and adventure travel planning site called The Get There Girls.
TheGetThereGirls.com gets right up close and personal – photo slideshows, video blogs, and fun, outstanding descriptions of the places the site's creators have been. Like most things in life, it’s what traveling is about; connection, intimacy, and the passion for doing what you love to do. If it’s cooking, maybe you love your new stainless steel pans. If it’s cars, maybe you love the new ’09 model’s improved engine. If it’s traveling, maybe you love the way Westminster Abbey smells inside or the noise trains make as they rattle down the tracks to your next destination. That’s what TGTG provides – the essence of the what, the who, the when, and most importantly, the how.
The Get There Girls was created and designed in 2007 by two women whose love for traveling, writing, and sharing their adventures translated into a thriving traveler hot spot on a computer screen. The site provides the standard elements of a traveling informational website – booking for hotels and hostels, links to ticket brokers, car rental agencies, etc. – but what's different about this site is that The Get There Girls take you a step further and actually show you what you can see and experience on your newly planned adventure. Videos, pictures, and honest reviews of lodging, what to pack, when to travel to certain destinations, how to rush order your passport, and what to expect at the currency exchange, just name just a few. This is a site worth exploring if you want to peruse the guts of what traveling is all about.
