Let’s Explore the World Together

Welcome to TravelKindred: Women Exploring the World - a vibrant community for women who share a love for adventure, cultural discovery, and connection.

Founded by Cindy Gaffney, a travel agent with Travelmation, TravelKindred was created as a safe, joyful, and inspiring space where women—especially those in the LGBTQ+ community—can connect through the transformative power of travel.

From sharing travel stories and destination tips to building lasting friendships, this community is your companion on the road and beyond.

While our focus centers LGBTQ+ women, we warmly welcome all women who value inclusivity, kindness, and meaningful connection.

Members also enjoy access to exclusive group trips—designed to be women and queer-friendly, community-centered, and full of unforgettable experiences.

Join us as we explore the world—boldly, authentically, and together.
