#6 How I Stay Safe As A Queer Female Traveler In Hostels
from Unruly Podcast | Travel, Activism & Alternative Culture · host Calen Otto - Travel Writer & Activist
It's been a while. I've been working, road tripping, and wandering my way around. Thanks for hanging in there! Join us this week as Calen and their guest, Divina, talk about sexual harassment. Divina shares her recent experiences as a solo traveler; facing these issues as a queer, femme, POC. Do people validate relationships, based on the gender(or lack of) of our partners? Can I wear what I want, when I want, in this body.... and feel safe? Is traveling solo, as a female, safe? How many times do you experience being instantly sexualized (in the form of cat-calling) in a 30 minute time period? Find answers to these questions, and more, as Divinia shares her stories in detail. She also gives us some tips as to how we can stay safe in our travels. And, as equally important, how we can support others' in feeling safe as well.
