We’re more than just adventure seekers! We’re knowledge seekers, too, and are constantly on the lookout for like-minded brands and people to collaborate with for activations and campaigns.
Zafigo is all about empowering women to live their best lives.
Born from a love for travel in 2014, our name was coined from, “Safely, I go.” We have since grown into a safe space and global community for women with the aim to nurture a love for discovery!
Hello Zafigo-ers,
Despite many challenges, humans love to travel and explore new places and cultures. Wars may erupt, oil prices rise, airline tickets follow. With fewer travelers, hotels turn to ratemaxxing. And climate change makes us look at weather reports more closely.
All these make us plan differently. Where and how to go depends on our wallets. We’re prioritising our dream destinations. Always wanted to hike up to Machu Pichu, train around Europe or do a foodie trip in India? Why not? But let’s take our time to do them.
At Zafigo, we will provide you with the ideas you need to make these choices. Whether your reason is a change of scene, to fulfill a wish or to learn new things, we’ll tell you how to prepare yourself, mind, body and soul to get there. You might even get to meet other women with the same bucket lists as you!

A Note From Our Editor
Travel changes as we do. The places we want to go, the reasons we travel, and what we hope to find along the way can look very different from one stage of life to the next.
This October, we’re taking a closer look at travel, reconsidered — from solo trips that don’t necessarily mean being alone, to journeys built around a particular passion, and adventures that arrive later than expected. We’re also exploring the people, places, and perspectives that sit beyond the usual travel itinerary, with stories that reflect how women are travelling now, across Asia and beyond.
