Solo mother, let’s go!
With your kids, go and live
an authentic trip.

Discover the world as a family

Go on holidays with your children and see the wonder in their eyes. Live a different journey, meet others and these paths that reserve so many wonderful surprises.

What if it was during the holidays that… your children learned the most?

With your little one(s)…

A single mom and proud to be so! But being an everyday heroine also means having to think about everything all the time. What if you took some break? But what to do with your children... It's pretty simple - just take them with you!

When travelling with your children, offer them, and yourself, a wonderful gift - precious memories that you have lived together.

And your teenager(s)!

Oh adolescence! It's a defining moment in your children's lives, but often you find yourself excluded from it. What better way to live an adventure than doing it while bonding with your teen(s)?

Thanks to NomadSister, you can explore the world together. Disconnected from everyday life, you will meet the hostess who will open her door to you with kindness.

Who are our hostesses?

They are women who live alone, with a partner or with their family, and are only volunteers.

They registered on NomadSister to provide a warm shelter to solo female travellers. As they are engaged in contributing to this community, they will be able to guide you and share their world with you. Next time you travel, think about them!.

They’ll warmly open their doors to you, so don’t hesitate to ask them about what they expect from you. They are all different, and their nice gestures and expectations are very personal.

Become a hostess

The safety and its price

We have a team in place to moderate and to verify profiles at every stage of registration.

All profiles that do not meet the criteria for registration and use can be flagged, suspended or sent back for validation. It represents a cost. That is why a contribution from all members is necessary. But to allow women from all over the world to join the community, the fee is flexible (starting from €20), and accommodations are free afterward.

Continuous verification

The platform has been designed from the first steps of registration, through the individual validation of profiles, to the follow-up of travel announcements to ensure maximum security, trip after trip.

Then, the entire community contributes to the safety of the platform. Everyone can report an inactive profile or an inappropriate situation. The moderation team then steps in to assess the situation.

Common questions

Our hosts around the world are trusted women who provide you a safe place in their homes without the incentive of money. They are kind and generous people who genuinely want to make sure you feel safe in their homes and to welcome you as a friend in their countries. We encourage you to show your respect, communicate with your host, try to get to know her better. Most importantly, do not consider the accommodation as a way to not pay for a hotel. Instead, consider it as a way to gain an authentic experience with your host.

Why not learn some useful phrases in her mother tongue or bring her some specialties from your country? Why not surprise her by cooking her a meal? You have some skills or hidden talents in music, yoga, aromatherapy…? Share your knowledge with her!

At NomadSister, we encourage humane interaction and cultural exchanges. We want our members to share the same values and go beyond a simple hostess/traveller relationship: we wish to create bonds.

We have implemented a flexible pricing model. However, it cannot be completely free. The platform incurs costs proportional to the number of users. By paying an annual membership, you enable NomadSister to exist and grow. We verify every profile of our hosts. The verification process is an ongoing effort, proportional to the number of users, thus requiring a lot of time and money. Maintenance, site improvement, and data protection also require substantial investments.

- 1. To feel safe - With NomadSister, you will never really be alone. In fact, you will meet lots of amazing and trustworthy women who will be happy to welcome you into their homes as a friend. This way, you will have better information and tips about your destination, the local culture and places to avoid. Thanks to our unique system of profile verification and monitoring, we are able to develop a caring community, based on mutual help. - 2. To meet people and live authentic experiences - Accommodations on NomadSister are free. You won't be considered as a customer by our hosts. You will be welcomed by generous women who simply want to encourage the globetrotters/ adventurers, and meet these inspiring people like you.

Our hostesses are all trustworthy women: when they confirm a request, they will normally not cancel it. However, in case of an unexpected event (which could happen), the hostess may have to cancel her confirmation before your arrival. Therefore, we recommend you to always have a backup plan. In case of last minute cancellation, please report your situation to our team and we will help you find a safe solution.

Of course you can! We are glad you asked! Our vision at NomadSister is to create a globally trusted platform that connects solo female travellers with hostesses. We need YOU to help the community grow! You will certainly meet many hosts who will show their generosity that will inspire you to become a hostess as well.

Our profile verification process is innovative because it’s hybrid - both manual and automated with an initial full process of verifications, as well as continuous verification.

● Initial profile verification process:

You will be asked to upload a profile picture as well as an ID card on our website. For verification to succeed, the name displayed on your ID must match with the information you've provided on your profile.

● Continuous verification process:

1. We will carry out continuous profile verification process on each member. Including the recent login activity for your account to verify that login attempts were made by you. In addition, we will send you an e-mail each time there is a suspicious attempt to sign into your account. Our team will help you in that case.

2. If you host or are hosted by a member of NomadSister, you can choose to "announce the trip". You will receive after that an e-mail with the option to file a report if you encounter a problem. We will receive this report immediately, and react as quickly as possible.

Our safety team works hard to monitor the website, insure the safety of all our members and handle any problems quickly.

You can delete your account at any time. Please note that if you change your mind, you will not be able to recover it. If you wish to re-create a new account after deleting your current one, you will have to go through our verification system again, as a new member. If you still wish to do so, you will find the option ‘delete your account’ in the settings section on your profile.

You can contact the technical services at hello@la-voyageuse.com. The delay of response to some questions cannot be guaranteed. However our team will try to reply within 48 hours during week days.

There are plenty of homestay platefrom. However, we can still hear stories from female travellers complaining about their bad experiences with their hosts, mostly related to their personal safety... It’s the fact that solo female travellers are more easily exposed to personal security issue when compared with male counterparts. We want to change that by simply providing an alternative option – a homestay service that is SAFE and reserved for WOMEN only. Beyond women solidarity, it is about gender equality. Think about your daughter or any woman you care about. They want to explore the world alone and now they have a choice to be hosted by trusted women. Wouldn't you feel more reassured? It’s a project dedicated to solo female travellers, yet it’s for EVERYONE!

If NomadSister is only for women, it's not because we don’t like men, nor are we trying to separate the world in two. No, not at all. We all have had good and bad experiences during our travel with people, men just like women.

Here's why:

1. There are already a lot of choices when it comes to homestay platform dedicated to men and women. Yet, none of these are dedicated for women only. That’s why NomadSister is created to offer an alternative choice for women who wish to be hosted by women only, and it’s for everyone who believes in the need of a safer environment for women.

2. We want to encourage more women to travel. We think that as long as you are cautious, being female shouldn’t stop you from seeing the world. We’ve heard of lots of stories of women who have backpacked through India, hitchhiked around Afghanistan and explored other places alone where women aren’t treated like equals, and/ or often sexually harassed. However, the harsh truth is that women experience travel differently. Women have to deal with sexual harassment and personal safety issues much more frequently than men do. Women don’t even have basic human rights in some cultures. Having said that, we are aware that men may have to deal with these issues under certain circumstances. Yet, women are undeniably more easily exposed to these issues than men are.

Yes. However, you will need to ask your hostess before you make a request to stay with her. As long as she is OK with it, it’s fine with us. However, as a respectful guest, you’re entirely responsible for your kid.

Your friends must all have a verified member account and be identified when requesting accommodation.

Up to the age of 14. Beyond that, boys are physically mature.
