First Foot Forward Discover The Journeys of These Fearless Females Through Their Epic World Travel

WRITTEN BY: NIZIE NAZEHA LOKMAN , FCIM

T ravel is multi-dimensional. Some of us take on a journey to escape routine, while others just want to push their boundaries, make dreams come true, or see travel as a learning experience. Some who travel discover a journey bigger than themselves. It is uplifting to learn how these globetrotting “she-roes,” or female heroes, from all walks of life inspire us as women of our time to be bold and brave and pioneer our own journeys, making a mark in the world. TrooRa highlights the women who have gone far and wide with their dreams to travel the world and made it to the finish line; from the youngest person at 21, the fastest person to circle the globe at 24, the first of South Asian origin at 34, the first Black person at 35, to the first Filipino one at 77.
