The Challenge Solo Women Face
Twenty-one million women over 55 travel solo in America. Many are not traveling by choice. They are surviving economic insecurity, employment discrimination, and a housing crisis.
Age Discrimination
63% of women over 50 report experiencing age discrimination in employment, despite decades of experience and fresh certifications.
Housing Insecurity
34% of older renters spend half or more of their income on housing. On an average Social Security benefit of about $1,500 a month, one emergency is all it takes.
No Central Resource
Which public lands are safe for solo women? Where can you workamp? How do you apply? Nobody has been answering those questions in one place. That is what Solo Sojourn is for.
How Solo Sojourn Helps
We are building the Solo Sojourn Trail app and a community around it, made for women over 50 who need safe, affordable places to camp and workamp on Florida’s public lands.

Built on Lived Experience and Research
Solo Sojourn is not a venture-backed startup chasing trends. It is a graduate research project born from the founder’s own experience of submitting 300 job applications, getting 2 interviews and 0 offers, despite Google certifications and 30 years of experience.
Read the research report documenting the economic crisis facing women over 50, demographic projections through 2035, and why workamping on public lands offers dignity and community when traditional pathways fail. Or take part in the University of Florida study behind it.
