Girlfriend Getaways


PIF adventures are appealing to active women who embrace new, exciting adventures! All tours are designed to empower women and enrich lives. Every experience provides a physical challenge that encourages women to push themselves and support each other throughout the process. Every adventure taps into a woman's maternal instincts, pulling at her heart strings in a variety of ways.

This fall a group of six female Sojourners shared an adventure in Guatemala hiking, biking, kayaking and building energy efficient stoves for Mayan families outside of Antigua. Not only did volunteering provide an opportunity to bond with one another, we also connected with indigenous women who welcomed us into their homes. We learned to make tortillas, live simplistically, and embraced their children as if we were an extension of the family. The experience proved that though we may live worlds apart geographically, girls will be girls no matter where you travel.

Whether it's hiking at Lake Atitlan or building stoves for families, the bonding that occurs between women while traveling creates friendships that last a lifetime!
