For most of us, life is a journey of many twists and turns that ultimately defines who we are. As women, we may feel pulled in a million different directions. Our upbringing and upbringings may have changed our paths but travel doesn’t take away the adventurous spirit.
At some point traveling became more than just a pleasure. It’s now an adventure, and you might be surprised at who, besides the backpackers and the adventurers, are on the road.
Traveling awakens your senses: through scents of exotic foods, sounds of waves crashing against sand, and sight of the rolling hillsides of vineyards…and best of all, experiencing cultures and people from around the world.

Hi Alice, we’d love to hear more about how you thought about starting your own business?
I created TravGanic to fill a void in the travel market. I wanted to stay in ecolodges and support indigenous communities on my travels but none of the big travel sites had ways to filter for these types of experiences. I found myself searching for hours online to find listings and wanted to make sure other people didn’t have to do that. TravGanic is an ecotourism marketplace that brings sustainably certified tours, boutique hotels and vacation rentals to customers looking to travel with a minimal impact… Read the article here.

FWM: You have a fondness for adrenaline. Share your greatest adventures.
My greatest adventure. A tough choice really between what was the most physically and mentally challenging. Three come to mind. Summiting Mt Kilimanjaro. Backpacking Solo in Colorado. And swimming with sharks. I will have to choose the last however as that one scared me the most. It was many years ago now, but at the time I had only had my scuba diving certification for a matter of days and had almost always been terrified of what lurks beneath… Read the Full Article Here

After the “Stay at Home” orders began in Los Angeles, my days consisted of enjoying being home, writing, making videos and, like the rest of the country, … waiting. Normally my year consists of working on films and TV shows. This year would have been no exception as I had just signed on to do two films in Atlanta, back to back, as a stuntwoman. I love my career but my true passion is hiking peaks and traveling to the ends of the earth in search of amazing stories for producing adventure films. For years I have told my friends that I wanted to hike some of the “14’ers” (Colorado’s 58 mountain peaks over 14,000 feet in elevation), and that one-day I would take a summer to accomplish that task… Read the Full Article Here
