Bold Women Travel Meetup (Austin)

Welcome to our Women's Travel Book Club. This is an event sponsored by the travel group, Bold Spirit Travel.

We read books by women about travel and different cultures.

Join us to chat about the book Dreaming in Cuban by Cristina García.

About the book:

• Read the review on GoodReads here.

**Important: READ THIS :-)

• Only members who have a ticket will be able to access this meeting.
• Your ticket is free, but you need register.
• This way, we keep our meetings small and safe.
• We are doing it this way, with tickets, due to past issues with non-members crashing our meetings. Thanks.

How our Travel Book Club works:

We meet online via Zoom to chat about our monthly book pick. We have a list of discussion questions for our group, and you can bring your own questions and comments too if you have some.

1. The books we read are by women about travel or different cultures.
2. Grab your drink of choice and join us for an hour to talk story and travel.
3. Only guests with cameras on can attend. If your camera is not on, our host will remove you. This is to keep the group a safe space for all guests.
4. You can recommend books you think we should read next.
5. Please think of one question about the book for the group.
6. Please read the book...or at least 1/2 of it! Please do not attend if you have not read the book. We talk about the book.

Are you ready to walk on the wild side?

• This is an all women, small group trip to Iceland in 2026.
• All hotels, most meals, and fabulous activities are included.

Embrace your inner Norse goddess as you chase waterfalls, soak in hot springs, and hunt for the hypnotic shimmer of the Aurora Borealis (northern lights) in dark skies.

Fill your days with beauty, adventure, and camaraderie on this 7-day women’s multisport journey to the land of fire and ice.

Iceland may be small - less than 400,000 inhabitants - but the terrain is mighty.

• In daylight hours, you’ll take in the raw power of Iceland’s many waterfalls, including Gulfoss and Seljalandsfoss.
• You’ll also stop for historical interludes at Thingvellir National Park in the Golden Circle and the Caves of Hella.
• If atmospheric conditions are right, the Aurora Borealis will pop into view, shimmering in ethereal greens, golds, and reds in the night sky.

Unsure what to bring with you when you travel?

Have you been the woman at the airline check-in counter frantically taking "essentials" out of her luggage because your bag weight is waaaay over?

Or, worse yet, have you had to pay more to check an overweight bag? (Yikes.)

Ladies, many of us could use some help when it comes to packing. Join us for this online session to learn to be a better traveler.

During this class you will learn:

1. Tips for picking out the right suitcase and backpack
2. Ideas on how to create a capsule wardrobe for your trip
3. What you really do need to bring with you on each trip
4. About shoe choice
5. How to wash clothes on the road
6. Necessary gadgets (and the ones we can live without)
7. Mistakes we've made
8. How to leave room for fun shopping
9. To cube or not to cube?
10. What you need on the flight
11. And a whole lot more!

At the end of this session, we will provide you with a list of packing tips to make your next trip that much easier (use it as a checklist and stress less).

There will be Q&A.

• You can ask questions at the end of the talk.
• Come with your own tips, too, to share with other women.
• Is there a bag you love? A great travel shoe? A clothing brand that never wrinkles? Come tell us about what works for you and also learn from us and the audience.
• Use our tried and true tips to get ready for your next adventure.
