How Serena sees and painted me ⭐️. Through my work with Female Places, something beautiful happened: Serena noticed what I was creating. She is an illustrator and artist living not far from Pordenone in Friuli Venezia Giulia. We spent an inspiring day together in Pordenone; she showed me her favourite places, and we could have talked for hours, imagining ideas and products for .places

Some time after our meeting, Serena shared a drawing of me. Today, I feel ready to show it. In her post, she described what inspires her about Female Places and mentioned my Trieste guide for solo travellers (see link in bio) again. She understood that I did not create it to make money, but because it came from the heart.

One year after publishing my little guide, I understand even more clearly where the heart of Female Places beats: it wants to connect women with warm and welcoming hosts, to create moments where something real happens and hearts beat a little faster because of genuine connection.

Thank you, Serena, for seeing this. Thank you for the artwork and for your support until now. This gratitude is also for every woman who follows this account with her radiant heart and believes in this journey. I see you 😊

✨Wishing you a gentle transition into the new year. May it bring you places that feel safe, encounters that feel true, and moments that feel like home.

Ready for an 8-day road trip in Friuli Venezia Giulia?
Here’s my personal itinerary for women travelling solo by car. I stayed in some places myself, others were trusted tips.

You can follow this route in both directions – start in Trieste or come down from Villach.

No need to change hotels every night. Just drive, explore, and take your time.

1. Venzone – 2 to 3 nights
🏡 Casa Bliss with Pierina – warm, quiet, and close to the Tagliamento river. Mention Female Places for a discount: [email protected].

🌿 Walk through Venzone, Gemona, or take a detour to Val Resia for deep nature. 

🚴‍♀️ Ride a stretch of the Alpe Adria Cycle Path (Venzone–Udine, 55 km). You can return by train with your bike. 

⛰ Optional: Stop at Monte Lussari for breathtaking Alpine views.

2. Tarcento – 2 nights
🏡 Villa de Rubeis Florit – a romantic Venetian villa 

🌿 Great base for San Daniele, Spilimbergo and Udine. A place to slow down. 

Optional mountain stop: Sauris – 1 or 2 nights
🏡 Garni Plueme – calm and scenic.
🌿 Rest by the lake, enjoy local ham and beer, or go hiking.

3. Gorizia – 2 nights
🏡 Hotel Trieste in Gradisca d’Isonzo - boutique style, run by two sisters. 

🌿 Gorizia & Nova Gorica (Slovenia) are European Capital of Culture 2025 (GO! 2025). Visit the castle, cafés and cultural spaces. 

🍷 Don’t miss Collio/Brda. For hikes, I love the Slovenian side: Šmartno is a gem.

4. Trieste – 2 nights
🏡 Forvm Boutique Hotel, elegant and central. 

🌿 Stroll through the city, visit Miramare, Duino (Rilke trail), Grado and Aquileia. 

End your journey by the sea.

Rainy days in Trieste - this is what you can do for an unforgettable day.

I’ve spent more than a few rainy days in Trieste. We are not in Sicily here.

That’s why I’ve put together this guide: places where it feels good to be a woman on her own.

Cosy cafés with quiet corners, museums where time slows down, shops full of unique treasures and a pub where you never quite feel like a stranger.
Like: .art
These are what I call female places — not because they’re only for women but because they feel safe, inspiring and quietly comforting.

If you find yourself caught in the rain around here, save this guide, it might just be the gentle nudge you need.

And if you have a place that feels just like that, share it in the comments. Let’s build this map together. ✨

This is about the real, everyday stuff that makes me book a trip alone as a woman – especially now, being 45.

Over the past years, I’ve been inspired by some amazing women who speak openly about this phase of life – about hormones, energy levels, mindset, self-care, and what it means to feel good in your own skin again.
Women like , , , , .orfanosboeckel and remind me that midlife isn’t something to get through. It’s a time to redefine.

And for me, part of that has been solo travel.
Not just the big soul-searching kind.
But for smaller things too. The quirky, deeply personal reasons that feel like freedom.

🌀 Swipe through to see the full list – maybe you’ll find one that sounds familiar.

📩 And tell me: what’s one of your unusual reasons for travelling solo?
I’d love to hear it l. Please comment or DM me. 💛

✨ Female Places is where I share trusted tips and connections for women who travel solo – especially in midlife, with all its changes, freedom, and new priorities.

I didn’t come to Zadar, Croatia looking for history.

I came for light, for stillness.

But history whispered from the walls —

quietly, confidently. No signs needed. Just time.

🏛️ Roman Time

Ancient stones underfoot. Arches, fragments.

Time folds here. You feel it more than see it.

🌅 Venetian & Austrian Empire Time

Soft light. Shutters slightly ajar.

A trace of Italy in the air.

Faded elegance that asks for nothing.

🧱 Reminiscing Yugoslavia

Geometry and quiet pride.

Balconies heavy with memory, laundry, and life.

Uncurated beauty. Honest and still.

🕳️ The War-Touched Walls

Cracks that don’t feel accidental.

Marks left unspoken.

The city remembers the latest war.

🌿 Zadar Today

Smooth cafés and sea-slick promenades.

Art installations where history meets horizon.

Locals with salt in their hair and espresso in hand.

The Adriatic breeze softens everything — even time.

✨ If you travel solo, this place lets you breathe.

You don’t have to rush. You’re allowed to just be.

Have you ever felt a city speaking without words?

Which layers of history do you notice most when you travel?
