List of Women-Friendly Destinations
Spain- A dancing retreat
Snap your fingers, clap your hands, tap your feet and dance your worries away when in Spain. With its deliberate movements, sharp strides and percussive footwork, Flamenco radiates passion. Talk about Flamenco and you get flashbacks of the unforgettable lady in red holding a fan, wearing a long frilly tail gown, with a shawl delicately draped over her shoulders. All of which are elements of the flamenco costume. Yes, we are talking about the song Senorita from the film, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara. You too can learn the art of Flamenco, be it at a mesmerising live performance or a crowded Spanish bar. The best part is that you don’t need no partner to Flamenco! This is a completely solo dance fueled by the rush of a guitar strummed with gusto. The beats of the cajón give you that extra edge while the rattling sound made by castanets adds on to the fun. If you too wish to learn this enticing art form, we suggest you sign up for flamenco dance courses spread all across Spain. However, if you don’t have much time, you can always head to a flamenco festival spread across cities such as Madrid, Jerez and Seville. Or witness a flamenco ballet at Granada. These festivals usually take place during the months of February, June and August.

Northern California- A wellness retreat
California’s rolling hills, intensive hiking trails, endless miles of sun kissed coastline and manors of redwood are the ultimate way to recharge your batteries- be they mental, physical or emotional. Checking all three boxes off the wellness list, California’s open roads are synonymous with a breather from the hullaballoo of your everyday life. From extravagant spa weekends to exhilarating boot camps there’s a lot here to detoxify the heart, mind and body. Wellness in California comes from watching the sun kiss the horizon, getting a rejuvenating massage or relishing some local haute cuisine. Head to the Yosemite National Park where dramatic waterfalls cascade down mighty granite mountains. Find your favourite picnic spot and watch this glorious spectacle unfold right in front of your eyes. Sounds like therapy, doesn’t it? Or perhaps just meander along California’s old Victorian houses and travel back in time, away from your worldly woes and mundanities. Head to the oceanfront town of Half Moon Bay and walk along its rugged Pacific coastline. Enjoy your meal with a view as you sit by the harbour and relish some fresh seafood. This is the vacation that you have been waiting for!
