#VROUWENDAG! ☀️Een mooie dag om een wat reisheldinnen in het zonnetje te zetten! De eerste: #IsabellaBird ging de hele wereld over, kwam op plekken waar mannen zich indertijd amper durfden te vertonen en kon leven van de boeken die zij daarover schreef. #reisheld

Like the Queen of Cups, Isabella Bird traveled with deep intuition and an open heart: turning solitude into strength and adventure into healing. Her journeys remind us that rivers etch their stories into stone.
