I've rejoined 5W!

I think some readers will have no idea what that is, so I will explain. In 2005 when I was headed to Ireland on my own, I found out through reading a travelling magazine about an international organisation based in the UK, but with members from all over the world that connect for cultural exchange.

5W? Women Welcome Women World Wide - there are the 5 W's, and with thousands of members all around the world it is especially good for creating friendships across countries, across borders, and so forth.

When I went to Ireland I did stay with a member near Waterford, and I note that she is still a member.

Today I made contact with a member in Adelaide, and I may well meet with her when I go to Adelaide next week. Not that I am short of things to do in Adelaide, but I'm always happy to meet new people.

So if there is any reader who is interested - you might visit the website. You can join on line - there is a membership donation of 35 pounds.

Womens World Wide Web? LOL

That's it! Though much of the information is not on the web. All members get a printed list of all other members in the world, and enough details to know if they have similar interests to your own. It is about cultural exchange - though it is possible to get to stay with them too.
